CBD Jack Herer Fem, NO BUDS 8W

OK... Yes, I a Newbie and I'm unsure if I even posted in the Correct Area (so forgive me for being uneducated)

I have a couple of CBD Jack Herer that are 8 weeks old and No Flowers or Evidence of a Sex. I read the other day to force a plant into flowering change the light to 12/12. I have these with 4 other Autoflowering and on 18/6. My thoughts are, move them to an area where they get 12/12 to see if I can force them to Bud. Yes, No, or?

(I Looked Very Carefully and Do Not See anything Sex wise!)

Thanks

Are the CBD Jack Herer auto's? If not you need to switch them to 12/12 to flower.

I got them from i49 and it's just showing Feminized but not Auto. So, I'm going to say "No, not Auto's". These are the Main plants I wanted because of the CBD. I'm moving them today or and change the Light to 12/12!

Those are likely photoperiod and you need to switch the light cycle to 12/12 and they'll start showing pistils in a couple weeks when they start flowering after changing to 12/12.
 
Thank You All Very Much. I hope it's Not To Late! The plants look good I was starting to get concerned that they both were males but looking on Bananas of balls. I'll report back ASAP.
 
Been on a 12/12 since the 19 or 20th and Nothing! I'm going to Put them Outside for a few days and see what happens. We're approaching 10 weeks.

Have they been getting completely uninterrupted darkness for 12 hours each day? I've heard that even a minute or two of light during night can cause them to not flower properly.

I'd be cautious about bringing plants in and out if they're going to be put back in with other indoor plants. Personally, I'll never do it (again).

It's surprisingly easy to transfer in pests when you do that. I was a victim of this situation a few years back.

100% Dark for 12 hours, Still nothing.
Can you show us pictures of the plants in question? Have you stood in your flower area when the grow lights are off and checked physically that there are no light leaks whatsoever? ie. Is it truly 100% pitch black?

Sometimes seed stock brings duds , tester strains , bunk shit.

If Force flowering hasn’t “ moved “ it forward , consider them stunted bullshit.

I don't consider $10 a damn seed Cheap. In that case, I've thrown away $10,000.00 in Seeds since 1970. The plants are growing great. They are in a Basement so there's no Light from 8p to 8a. I can post a picture. (After 2 weeks of 12/12, I put them back in the tent with the others that are on 18/6 today.)

Yup you will be bringing an entire bug eco system into your house after one day. I guarantee it.

It doesn’t matter how much a seed costs , as breeders AND seedbanks ( distribution) often have been called out on shit seeds.

Run 12/12 for a minimum of 2 weeks , should either sex out or begin transition.
IF ......... it hasn’t moved forward .... do this.

Drop to 10/14 cycle as the last resort ... it is method to move the most stubborn ... it DOES affect yield tho.
Sometimes “ autos “ are pollen chucked for quick sale ... lines were not fleshed out for stability.

What breeder are those ?
