I hear you about PHOTO plant size. I am strictly talking about AUTOS. AUTOS are different and if you want to actually finish them on time and have best results the first 2 weeks are Critical. I would say that the majority of people who have extended cycles on Auto grows simply overwatered or stressed the plant in first 2 weeks. Plus excessively large pots will also extend flowering, which is why I use stupidly small containers for most of my Autos now. With 2 gal pots my plants get huge.
OH for sure...it was the BB photo i was talking about being so susceptible to overwatering.
Not sure I agree about the large pots taking longer for flower though, some plants sure...I have done plenty(the majority I've grown) of autos(with unlimited root expansion access outdoors) that have finished right on que to breeder spec times.
