New Grower How long do autos preflower before blooming into bud production?

I have been growing a fastberry from fastbuds from orgeoneliteseeds, I am growing it in Coco coir and I'm feeding it with the complete set of roots organic liquid nutrients and I'm on week 5, or bloom one. My problem is that my autoflower entered into preflowering in it's third week from sprouting, it's week 5 now and it still has not started bud production. I have been feeding it now at least 800 to 1000 ppms with 5.8 to 6.1 pH of the nutrients with more of the Buddha bloom in it.

If you have grown autos, what's the longest you have had yours in preflower before it started to enter blooming?

Start using bloom nutrients from the start of feeding. Autos have a much smaller lifespan and preflower or blooming starts very early. Bloom nutrients also boost root development so even if it takes a while to start flowering, the plant will use them for root development. It is a blur zone, when is sex just showing or the plant actually flowering. It is actually stretch itself that marks flowering in this sense. Expect it to start around week five, but this is not always the case. Photos are a different case, nutrient use depends on your light schedule, but veg nutrients are a must throughout the grow. No nitrogen means death for the plant. Try to use a balanced mix of nutrients for both growth cycles. NPK 7-7-10 is a good option for steady use in both vegging and flowering. No need for more N or/and PK boosters if your feeding follows such a balanced schedule.

Wow thank you for your reply!
