New Grower First autoflower/indoor grow

[Midwestsmoker]

I'm sure you already know this, but autoflowers do not need to be flipped. That said, I've gotten a couple autoflowers that leaned more to the photoperiod and it was absolutely necessary to put them on 12/12 to induce flowering. Genetics are a crazy thing! Could have been a package error, too. Who knows?
Although I'm more of a "change-one-thing-and-see-what-happens" kind of person, I think you made the right decision to transplant and flip. I may not have changed the light cycle just yet, but I bet they'll perk right up once their roots stretch out and find the O2 and nutrients they're probably searching for. 50 days without flower sign is about 20-30 days too long.
They do look healthy though! Maybe a bit root-bound, slightly over-watered, or maybe the lights just came on and they haven't woken up yet.
You're definitely on top of things! Great work!

Yea I have read that I only made switch once I noticed vertical growth had slowed down.i agree about it taking longer then should to show sign.i think it may be the pot as I said noticed afew more days in those pots and it would have been more then likely they weren't completely covered when I transplanted but could tell it would be soon

I had received the seeds from a friend he had bred each strain to its self to get more seeds could this be reason why they are a little loopy?i had wondered and planted a seed along with a feminized Death Star photo and the other seed quickly out grew the Death Star that along with the structure grow I am thinking they are autos

They bred an autoflower with a photoperiod, autoflower with autoflower, or photoperiod with photoperiod? Maybe I'm confused...

Autoflower to autoflower same strain back to itself..the photo period I grew at same time with autoflower

They must have gotten regular non feminized autoflower seeds. If not, watch for hermies.

The pack says feminized..so if they were forced to male or hermie correct?so could that be a reason for the loopy genetics?

With hermie genetics should I take more caution when growing?

Could be.
I'm definitely not a breeder by any definition, and just barely a grower.
Maybe someone else can shed more light on the subject.

hey buddy some nice happy, healthy plants youve got there. strange about the flowering eh. could be many reasons for it and some strains just like to take their time with it. my last lot were day 48ish before anything happened. lookin good though man keep it up : )
