Indoor Not a true auto!

[beenjammin]

So I had a post on here for my first auto grow and I made alot of mistakes of course and learned from them LOL first mistake was nutrient deficiency until I purchased a Ph meter so I stunted the plant to where it was only 6 inches tall and had one set of leaves but I fixed the deficiency then 2 weeks later my led light became unhooked and cracked my plant in half LOL so it was back to 5 inches and one poor looking set of leaves but instead.of the main stalk growing taller it grew out the sides and is now about 20 inches maybe and it never autoflowered so I switched it to 12/12 4 days ago and it started to bud. So how long should it be before its done? I know I gotta look at the trichomes and should I switch up my nutrient feedings?? Any suggestions would be nice and I wrote this on my mobile phone so I can't proof read sorry if something doesn't make sense thanks!

a good estimation of time for most plants to be done budding is around 2 months or more precisely 6-8 weeks. but it is all determined in the plants genetics, for instance if by chance you have a mostly pure sativa it will take between 3-4 months to flower. so it could take 2-4 months for it to be done flowering but most likely you will be able to identify the timeline based on leaf/bud structure.


MY best advice is to feed it 1 tblspoon of molasses per gallon of water once every 3 waterings during the flower stage. do some more research or go buy some nutes its all out there. goodluck

K i didnt think 2 months jeez!! lol well i have my lights on 12/12 for the last 4 to 5 days and i have a almost 5 week old big bang under the same light and i just dropped a short ryder in soil like 10 minutes ago so it will be growing soon(i had it germinating for 4 days and the root was almost 3 inches long) will the budding one stop budding right if i put it back to 20/4?

you are correct it will go back to vegetative state if you put a flowering plant back under those light regimens you speak of (20/4)
