OLD REVIEWS At what point to you pull the plug?

[Brownthumbs]

I have a Linda seeds Fat Blueberry Auto, that isn't very Auto-ish. This is the first auto out of the 20 i've grown, not to auto.
I do not have the ability to change the light cycle, as I don't want to fuck up the schedule of the other 9 plants in the cabinet.
She is 7.5 weeks old, having sprouted 2-10-21. The plant to her right was germinated the same time, and also broke ground the same day. It has stretched & is in flower.
Both are in promix premium & the new megacrop single part. Anyone else ever have a plant take this long to flower? Let her go, or pull the plug?

I saw this post recently about a Linda Seeds Fat Blueberry, perhaps just let her ride?

Dunno, has me worried about the other 9 seeds i have. I heard of autos taking over 4 months, but all I"ve grown have all started flowering between weeks 4&5.

I never pull the plug - well almost never. Is there some pressing need for the space?

4 months? That's 120 days. Have never had an auto that went anywhere near 120 days. Almost all have been done in under 90... much longer and they start loosing their edge over photos.

Not terribly uncommon to see a photo pop up once in a while. Some breeders will release things before completely nailing the auto gene down, then you'll get photos popping up. They should really crank through the flowering phase tho... I'd keep her and flip when everyone else is done.

It looks healthy. Ride her 'til she drops.

if it aint gonna flower, i don't want it. tomorrow marks 8 full weeks.

so my question is, has anyone had an auto flower this late before? Because i am thinking maybe its a photo, and i received the wrong seeds.

Crappy genetics, poor lighting, crappy technique. Reddit if full of 120day autos. Heck, I follow several guys on here that have several grows over 110days. They LST the F out of the plants and get great yields, but run well past 100days.

I know 4 mo is way long & not the norm, but they are out there. i'd personally never knowingly buy anything that takes that longs, but this particular seed is an in-house genetics, so not much is known. I rolled the dice on linda seeds $1.50 special, and it looks like i may have crapped out!

Wait.. Are your other plants autos? If so, why would you be concerned with switching the light cycle for 2 weeks or so to see if the problem plant starts to flower under 12/12? Otherwise you'll just be wasting space, lights, nutrients etc on a vegging plant.
