Auto flower not flowering yet

Hello, this is my first grow I'm currently in week 3 of flowering northern lights from sensi and the issue is that I still can't see any proper flower development. It is healthy and growing but there aren't much flower development..thought about putting it under 12/12 light period and did so with no results.

I can't keep having it to veg and grow since I'm very restricted in space. It did go through a few stress bits when it comes to light but that's about it really.

She just came out of a pure water feed/flush in week 2 and started feeding her ( nova bloom ).

Sooooo any advice?

stop .... dont change the light regime.
unless you want beans ! stick to the program..

best of luck. shes just a later starter and will prob add weight quicker later on compared with some other strains.

Week 3 of Flowering??? Do You mean Week 3 - Total??(if You can't see Flowers) also I have read that some Auto's do need to be put on 12/12 to start the Flowering, simply because they are either not True Auto's OR not very Good Crosses? Can't remember what Strain that was or Where I read it?? Baked!! But I would just stick with your Light regime, like HolyGrail888 says..Not so sure about 12/12 causing Beans though, IDK? 1st lot of Auto's for Me.

Don't forget the stated Days by seedbank/breeder is under Optimal conditions/setups...which Home Growers don't tend to have(well most of us are on a Budget) Also The amount of Light, how far away..etc all plays a part...some(most) take a little longer anyways...well seems to be the case..

Relax n Keep going...

Peace

No i wouldnt go flipping them to 12/12 if they are auto where did you read that ?

i intentionally leave some small buds on at the end of harvest and put them on 12/12 for free beans.

what strain / breeder are we talking about here ?

peace

its true that some autos arent solid enough to always stick to there path and will need 12/12 to flower, but you dont switch the light back at all, it stays on 12/12

if its week 3 total then you wont really see anything just yet, autos are a typical 10 week plant and in my opinion you wont get more bud from doing 3 auto grows compared to 2 regular grows. And unless your strain is a good one then you can expect anything from 3g to 30g a plant, they are a bad choice unless its just a personal smoke.

also, bloom solution feeding schedules are based on the type of plant theyre experimented on... its no good following the schedule on a plant over 8 weeks flower as it will hardly give you a positive result. A friend of mine has a cum laude plant that takes 10-12 weeks in flower and takes bloom nutes at weeks 4 - 6 instead of the bottles schedule of week 2-4. this is something youl need to experiment with.

That's what I've read somewhere that some autos need to be put under these conditions in order to flower , even though I'm pretty sure she's way more than just waiting to show her sex and start with flowering !!

I'm gonna keep going for sure..ain't no stopping now !

Thanks guys for the reply...she sprouted on the 7th of March, so no it's not 3 weeks in total it's basically her 7th week right now from start. Sex has been shown fully around 3-4 weeks ago.

I will stick with the regular light regime I had it one throughout the period (which is 24/0 in my case) and hopefully wait cuz since last week where I started the 12/12 light period with her she extends a lot especially through the dark hours and that ain't good for me.

I'll keep doing what I do and wait with my fingers crossed !!

Pictures sure would be nice.

Will update My KC45 Auto(Regs) Pics and Info later, at the moment they are 87 Days in!!! Still not Flowering, Sooo I will be flipping to 12/12 @7pm when the lights go of for the 18/6 Schedule they are on at the moment, will alter Timer and give them their 1st taste of 12 hrs Darkness...here's hoping for a least 1-2 Females...Pics to Follow.
