Hi... Welcome to 420... My first thought when I looked at your pic is you most certainly need more light.... Can you tell me what your growing medium is and nutes ... I certainly see pistols and I honestly think you just need more light to push her a bit... If you could double what you have in there is would be a start... If the pics are true to color if you look toward the bottoms of the pot... you can see there is no light at all... almost dark.... that is where I would start... If you have about a hundred bucks I noticed yesterday on the Mars-Hydro LED site they have their little 48x5w reflector reduced to that and it includes shipping... if you use the code: cofinest..... you'll get a few dollars more off and I think you would be amazed at the difference you would see.... Just my 2 cents and I charged about a penny to much...

ya thats the only thing thats bugging me is your PH in check if off can lock the roots and slow down growing to a full stop try a good PH flush get everything back to normal what size is your pot ? it may even be root bound the plant has out grow its pot maybe

Its in a 4 gallon pot, I always control the PH to 6.5. The ppm was in 2500 3 days ago.

:jaw dropper: ya thats fine ppm is a little up there but doing good something is slowing the plant down you should have harvest by now so i can see why your a little piss

Should I wait or cut it and start again?

I would give her a few more weeks do a flush to make sure your good and after the flush go a few weeks to see if the flush did anything. If not i would pass as you should have harvest by now and sounds like you know your stuff you been around a grow room of some time i don't think its something you did but more the plant maby

I don't disagree with a possible flush for precaution but I still would bet cha... it's wanting more light.... just my opinion and I wish you the very best of luck...

They really do look healthy and beautiful... Are you sure there is no way they could have gotten mixed up with photoperiod girls??? Honestly I cannot see any reason those babies shouldn't be blooming or at least throwing pistols other than light... I actually only use a 3 gallon pot for my autos... I have 2 going now and both of them were blooming within the first 2 weeks.... Is it possible to rig up another group of lights like you currently have? That would help I'm sure... I would start there if possible and see what happens but they just look so healthy I would hate to see you throw them out...

Don't get me wrong the lights are a little low as I said you do need more light but I have flowered one plant and got over 3 ounces with 5 45watts CFL's ya maby it's not a auto seed and the seed bank got it mix up but I'm hopeing the flush helps

Should I keep it at 18/6 or switch to 12/12?
Serpent

its funny i was asking the something i know some growers do that if nothing is happen then flick it back i would try the flush first its the easy start if nothing try to switch the cycle I'm not a auto seed person so i don't know 100% if switching works just what i have heard

Howdy there! I have to go with Dennise on this one and say that if you really planted her on January 1, that is a photo girl. Technically it could happen within the genetics of a auto plant and you could end up with a photo phenotype. I haven't heard of one but it would be possible. I would drop the lights to 12/12 and see what happens in a week. It won't "hurt" an auto to be at 12/12 but if it suddenly takes off flowering then you know it is a photo.
Or the seed got mixed up. I would consider letting the seedbank know. You may get a freebie.
