New here and this is my first post! I am a newbie to growing but do have few grows under my belt now over the past few years, some photos and autos alike. I've always grown organically in soil but this is my first time growing in coco and in Autopots using the Canna nutrients line.
I must say that I was absolutely floored by the explosive growth I have gotten with this Autoflower run so far compared to previous soil grows. One literally reached 6ft tall before flowering! I've had in the past, 6 autos in soil/3gal pots that did not fill my 3x5 grow space like the 3 I have going now....2 Strawberry Gorillas and one Gorilla Cookies. That being said, I'm getting concerned with the Gorilla Cookies auto as the other two SG have been flowering already. One started to flower on week 4, one on week 5, and this Saturday will start week 7 and the GC has not started flowering yet. It continues to grow and bush out and it looks like it is ready to start flowering at any second second but it hasn't yet.
From my personal experience, every auto Ive grown flowered between weeks 3-5. So my question like my title asks, what was the longest it took an auto to flower for you? I've grown this same strain from the same bag of beans I purchased that didn't take this long. Is this normal?
I was doing 20/4 on the lights then last week bumped it down to 18/6 to see if it triggered anything. I know it's an auto so it shouldn't matter but thought it might be worth a try.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance
The gorilla cookies in the picture is the one on the left. The lighting seems to make it look yellowish but it is greener than it appears.
