hey. so i have 5 ak 47 plants at the moment. when i went in to look at them yesterday i noticed that 2 of them have the hairs starting to come out of the top nodes. the plants arent very big, probly a foot tall. so i was just wondering should i put them in 12 12 now and start flowering them or just keep them going on 18 6 until they get bigger?? i will add pictures in a sec im just going to go take them.

Alright so your plant is about a foot tall? And is showing hairs? If you havent put it in 12/12 and its already showing hairs then yes it is an autoflower and basically its telling you "HEY! I'm ready to flower" What your going to have to do is get a different fert mix that is high in phosphate so your buds can get really nice and your smoke really bomb. I'd recommend a phosphate percentage of 30 or higher, but that's just me. Put it in 12/12 but you have other plants around so your going to have to move them so they dont slow their growth. When next time you make a new grow have most if not all the plants the same age.

this is incorrect PREFLOWERS are NOT an indication of autoflower strains! all mature plants will show pre flowers

Not all of it is incorrect, plus the pistils are an indication that the plant is mature enough to bud. Maybe not autoflower but its the hairs growing is basically telling you that the plant is getting ready to.
