Honestly the same type of thing that causes differences in seeds from the same plant. Different gene inheritance. Autos don't always auto. Sometimes you have to flip to 12/12, sometimes you just wait. I had a northern lights auto stop flowering after a week. Waited 3 additional weeks, flipped to 12/12 and upped slightly my bloom nutes, all it did was stretch, flowers stopped developing altogether. Only time it has happened to me. Genetics can be stable and 99 times out of 100 you grow a plant that is almost a copy of itself each time. That 100th time you get a seed that has some weird trait. Just a fluke more than likely. And besides, look on the bright side. You're gdt a better harvest of you let it veg longer. Always look on the bright side of life.

1 thing that’s pretty dope is I abused these girls 33 days in solo cups before transplanting them at like 3” tall and those 33+ 21 more in veg and 59 in flower still makes them shorter than 6 of 8 fastbuds autos I’ve grown! And some were in solo cups themselves for full grow and still took like 95-103 days! Sad lil things upon transplant! 
Then this was 21 days later on flip day
Then this was like 15 days after they were flipped!
Def was easy peasy growing 1st photos so ready for my testers to show up! Excited to see what super secret strains I get to run!
Edit** Got to get to scrubbing out the small tent and resetting the earthbox juniors cuz shows my package will be here Friday!

Update to my purple scoops! Day 42 of life! Day 35 is 3 of 3 for comparison as well. Holy Shnikes! The frost production is absolutely insane! I can hardly believe my eyes this early in flowering. It's sugar leaves are frostier than an auto Sour D in the same tent that will be chopped down in a week! I don't know if the photo will do it justice, but hey best I can do til I order one of them digital scopes.
They grow oh so very fast don't they, and does Roc's stuff ever stop stretching? Lol! @RocBudInc you have done an amazing job on the purple scoops! Can't wait to pop some more. And my order will hopefully be here this week maybe early next we shall see!

Shiiiiiit my purple rolex is kicking ass n takin names! Tomorrow my homegrown bokashi coconut cal mag arrives so I can topdress her cuz think this soil was light on mag! This is 4th plant that’s had issue with it! Ph soil probe arrives tomorrow so be nice to know what’s happening down there since earthbox says to add dolomite lime few times throughout grow and I never do! Just rock dust for da worms!
Day 57 here
My older of the 2 candy dawgs has major issues so I’m just gonna chop her! Just wanna see what her ph is 1st to see if it’s soil that’s low on mag or if ph is locking it out! Either way once she’s gone purple rolex gonna have a whole 250w to herself to stack a lack til she’s done! Plus I’ll have room to start auto testers once package gets here so that’s a plus!

Calcium IMO is rarely a lack of calcium. Usually a lockout. Magnesium is better IMO from epsom salts. Provides much needed sulpher and is very hard to overdo. Too much calcium on the otherhand...Shiiiiiit my purple rolex is kicking ass n takin names!

Plus epsom is great for helping the plant uptake available nutrients.
Lotus nutrients are a bit pricey, but they have cal and mag in the grow and bloom parts. Never had a deficiency or lockout or any problems. They even have a flush for the last week or two. Good stuff.
Anyone tried Floraflex nutrient line? Saw roc's insta page advertising cloning tech for them and didn't know if anyone knew about/used them? Thinking about giving them a shot when I run out.

Funny you mention that, my FloraFlex line shipped today. Going to try it out in my 2 autopot system, also found them through Roc and then did some research on my own and decided to give them a try. Found a code BLG40 that gets 40% off the subscriptions so to try out the full line it was only $37 before shipping. Steal.

Thinking we could take a cutting and make the cutting a mother. But not sure if I heard not to use a cutting as a mother. If I keep it in my tent as a mother @Kirochka13red cant flower it out and that may not be what she wants. Would be great to have a PK mother I think. And as you say. By the time it flips it will be a large vegged plant. She amy have a pounder Purple Kong.

Frost getting so thick you can barely see the heavy purple fade it's started to take on. Gonna be pretty to look at in a few weeks when it heads to cure. This is my second grow ever. Definitely think going with Meph and Roc out the gate for genetics put a certain bar as far as what to expect and likely has ruined other genetics for me.
