It can take a while. I got bored waiting when I tried, so I binned her and popped a few seeds ;)

Hang in there though, it's interesting...

I'm kind of amazed nobody has told you re-veg on an auto is a waste of time, or questioned your flowering in 18/6... Also why is your carbon filter on the ground? Honestly some decent advice would probably have had you rolling from the start, instead of allowing you to chop early and have mid grade bud... Also Don't give advice you really don't know, starting your seeds in the pot you want to flower in will not speed things up and if using a large pot will make it very hard to properly water and feed your plant. Really bad advice to give someone starting out...

Umm, I was flowering autos on 24/7. Autos are known to grow their roots really quick and get rootbound. This is a fairly old thread and I am now better at growing, please educate yourself. I tried to reveg a photo period, not an auto. I had the autos flowering while I vegged the photo periods. I really don't understand why you bumped such an old thread, do you have an axe to grind with me? Anyways, please read more carefully.

You said you were running a 24/7 light schedule...How do you find that works with those auto's?
It doesn't seem to hurt them, but I'm not really sure how much it bumped up the yield. You get more if you start a photo period strain on 12/12 so I really don't mess with autos anymore.

Chopped down my two short riders today.

Edit: Yield does not include the buds I hermied because I am still letting them grow on the plants with a few popcorn buds to get seeds. I left a bit on each plant so it should be interesting to see if these autoflowers revegetate.
What did i read wrong about you trying to reveg auto's?

I was not trying to reveg them. I was keeping them alive for seed production and was wondering if they would grow new limbs since I hacked them all off except for one that I pollinated. They did not, and I was not able to reveg any of the photo periods. I still have like 50 feminized short rider seeds and some female pollen in my freezer that I produced with colloidal silver. I would like to eventually breed an auto that does well outdoors here.
