When i ued to grow ak48 from nirvana i had about 25 ak48 seeds in small foam cups, some had the tendancy to autoflower. this was before easyrider and all those auto strains.
Is it really budding already

So photoperiod plants can flower if left in small pots ?

Holy shit man, you’ve been on here 11 years and you don’t know that’s false ?

I know its not false because it happened to me in 2005 only ak48 seeds though apollo 11 and white rhino didnt autoflower but ak48 did.

If it happens once....
It's 1000000001% a fact
It's true
Don't argue with him

the first autos like easyrider were frowned upon by the larger community as you couldnt clone them there were plants like ak48 that showed autoflowering traits which were undesirable so easyrider etc had a tough beginning but novises liked them.
i dont know why you are trying to argue i have the experience you dont.

In the pic, the one on the back right is a volunteer that popped out in early March. It's starting to stack nodes really close and show pistils, kind of like yours. The others are extra clones I put out in early May that started to flower, and they're growing reveg leaves now.

It may have nothing to do with the small cup i was growing them in but ak48 from nirvana had some auto traits in some phenotypes. Its just the ones i grew were all in small foam cups and autoed on me.apollo 11 and white rhino were in small cups for veg too never showed those traits.
Autos been around since 1924

Autoflowering cannabis varieties flower depending on their age rather than photoperiod. But where do they come from? Read more at CannaConnection!

The genes are still there in some strains, they act like photoperiod, until they stress, change of light, then go into flower....photo sensitive, not photoperiod or auto.Autos been around since 1924

Some stay there trying to flower, struggle to reveg. Even a brighter light will send some into flower irregardless of light time.
Not a bad thing, as long as you know it. Just shocking if you don't expect it.
The flip time is ~24-48 hrs to blooming (not a week+) on a strain I grow, stretch time is minimal

I am in SC Texas, growing outdoors, and when I transplanted my NON-AUTOFLOWER White Widow from starter cups to 15 gal pots, they started to flower within a week (i think it’s posted under problems. I’ve also posted on 3 other forums since not many know what to do..).I still don’t know if the info I have will work...but here goes:
Mine were 8-12” high when they started to flower. They were NOT moved from the place they started, so it wasn’t about going from light-to-dark. BTW, I’ve been growing for 5 years, and doing it the same way...this is the FIRST time this has ever happened....and, it happened on ALL THREE strains.
Anyway, when I posted about it, I got all sorts of answers. But, to narrow it down, and speed it up...we’ve gotten where they now range from 12” tall to about 3 feet+ tall. The shorter ones look like they have revegged. Actually, the leaves look that way- they are shiny, 1-3 points, smooth edges instead of serrated...BUT, they have ‘flowers’ going all the way up the stem. those look hopeless to me..don’t know.
The 3 ft tall ones have mostly stopped flowering (the Equinox is only 2 1/2 weeks away, so they ought to start re-flowering then...BUT)
And, some are in between.....flowering & leaves are looking like revegged leaves.
SO, on another forum, I was advised to put black (thick, so light doesn’t get through) plastic bags over them from about 6pm - 9:30pm (depending on your sunset time. Here is about 8:45, so I’m going to put them on at 5:45 & remove them at 9:15. I should have already started, but was told NOT to put them on if it’s raining (or, in my case rained right before sunset) since it will be too wet inside the bags. You also don’t want to leave them on overnight...so fresh air will get to them.
I’m going to only cover some of mine.....not sure... I can’t even guarantee the person who told me this knows what he’s doing, but it sounds logical....less light simulates going into fall, thereby starting the flowering again........
Unfortunately, I’ve also had others tell me with all this work, they may just die anyway. So, I started 10 new plants the beginning of June in hopes they aren’t too late.
Good luck to you (and me!).

It’s the government plot of planting hemp everywhere to pollinate the best strains and turn them into shit .........it’s true, it really really is lol. Show a bee a hemp plant and he’ll ruin a crop lol. But seriously I’ve got one out of 13 supposedly regs flowering now (4 weeks old) so I’m assuming the stoned seed sorter got an auto stuck to his sleeve and carried it over to the reg bin ;(. I also had 98% males last year from bag seed that buddy gave me and he had no males but I had soil issues so was it that?????.
