Having troubles getting to flower.

Hi All,

I have a Northern Lights / Big Bud autoflower strain from Oasis genetics (see HERE) It's going on about 13 weeks from seed and is not flowering. It's in week 3 of me forcing 12/12 lighting (with 48hrs of darkness before the timing was switched) with absolutely no pistils or preflowers showing at all.

Any ideas at all? After 3 weeks of 12/12 I would have thought, that would have snapped it into flower but nadda as of yet...


Thanks all.

Possibly it's not mature enough. Possibly you have a light leak. Possibly you have bad genetics.
 
Got any pics? Plant should be huge after 13 weeks.

Even after 3 weeks of 12/12 still no flowers. That is a little crazy sounding.

Def seems like it is not an auto flower.

Def seems like you have a light leak or a timer issue.
 
That’s what I would think. 1. Deff not an autoflower cause light shouldn’t matter and 2 if photo then probably a light leak

These were taken a few weeks ago, I'll have to get updated pics when I get home tonight. It may be worth it to note that I had a Lemon drop auto in the same tent which flowered as expected and is now dry and curing. My assumption was that I got a photo which is why I switched to 12/12.

Absolutely no light leaks as it's in a dark basement inside a grow tent.

Could it be shitty lights maybe and the other auto just was more tolerant?
 
No. doubt it’s the lights. My brother had to switch from 12/12 to 10/14 and they finally showed and then went back to 12/12 one time when he topped them a lot of times

I have an extension cord that has a light on it. Fucked 2 grows before I realized it was there. Even a tiny amount of light can do it. A light on a humidifier? Light on a timer etc. Any tiny small....this thing is on light....can fuck it up.

Oh crap, i do have a humidifier in the tent with an LED display...

So I could possibly be dealing with a photo and actually do have a "light leak" so to speak....I'll have to put some electrical tape over the display and see what happens.
 
Odd plants not a lot bigger at 13 weeks veg especially northern lights but don’t now the pot size
It's only in a 1 gallon as I didn't expect it to still be around at this point.

I'm tempted to up-pot it and stick it outside and see if it flowers in September

Cover the light and see if it flowers. Be a sure way to see for certain.

Aren't these plants autos? If they are they will flower and like 24hrs of light. They are very small for 13 week old plants though....either way more info on your grow can help.
