Week 7 no buds.

I am currently growing what I initially thought were photos but I began suspecting they were autos a few weeks ago when 1 of them began stretching and looking like it wanted to flower. Now they are all doing it, showing sex and preflower calixs in all the nodes, just not getting anywhere in last 2 weeks. Here are a few pics that were taken 5 days ago. They have been above dirt from about April 3rd. Lighting was all 6500k t5 4' 8 tube fixture until about 2 weeks ago I added 2 64w 2700k cfl bulbs for side light to get red spectrum. Last week I added 2 4' 2bulb t8 fixtures with 3000k tubes angled off the sides off the 8 tube fixture. I have also been hardening them off and giving them sunlight in the am for additional red spectrum. My question is am I just being impatient, or is there a problem due to no red light until about 5th week. I will get current pics later tonight when I get home.

Are you going to put these outside? I don't think they're autos. There's a lot if info out there, don't try to cram it all into your situation.

No, I have a balcony outside where my grow room is that I can set them on as the sun comes up. I usually leave them there about 3-4 hrs from 7:30 a.m.-10:30/11:30 a.m.. I have only ever grown outdoors before and never reslly saw much like this until mid august when flower started after stretch.
 
They are photos, behaving like...photos.
Really? They stopped all vertical growth about 2 weeks ago and began to bush out. Tops are all staggering also. In my very limited experience, and outdoors only at that, that was a signal they were starting to flower along with stretch. Lol
 
There would be pistils/pollen sacks if they were stretching due to flowering.
Ok, gotcha. Any idea why they topped out as short and early as they seem to have? I guess I will induce 14/10 lighting and see what happens. Lol I really do appreciate your guys help. This will only be my 3rd grow now, and like I said 1st indoor grow. The strains are supoosed to be Sour Diesel, Kandy Kush, and Holy Grail Kush. I should also mention this is my 1st experience experimenting with lst. I will get better pics up tonight and maybe you could give advice. Again, thanks for your time and help. It really is appreciated.
 
Don't know if this is allowed but my auto is 3 weeks from seed and already wants to flowerIMG_7261.JPG
I'm growing many plants this season but only a few autos, this is Pineapple Express
 
Thought it would help, since if my auto is already flowering only 3 weeks in then maybe yours isn't an auto? Idk lol auto newbie; first autos :blsmoke: I'm excited to are your plants progress
Thanks for the reply. I am guessing everyone is right and their photos. I am just confused why they aren't growing at all in height. Is that a result from the lst? I am used to only being able to see my plants about once a week or so in the past, so flower progress was significant when I saw it. Seeing small calixs at the nodes made me think they were autos. I suppose they just vegged long enough to show sex on their own. Always something new to learn. I will get more pics soon. Haven't been home much when the lights were on. I have an odd timing. Off at 4:00 p.m., and on at 2:00 a.m.. I will get some in the morning tomorrow.

Awesome! Here is my Sour Diesel. She is my baby. Lol She has had this odd yellowing on the leaves from the beginning. Someone told me I over fed and caused lockout. The centers of the new growth is literally a yellowish white and then the green comes in, but they look cool, but epsom salt 1/2 tsp to the gal in a watering hasn't helped any either. She has grown the best of all 5 so far.

Here are pics I took about a week ago. I have since feed them another round of veg nutes since I had been feeding them bloom for 2 weeks and a few looked hungry. I mixed at 1/8 strength. I am using Shultz All Purpose 20-20-20.
