Hit a Blue Mystic (supposedly) with 48 hours darkness. Still no Pistils that i can see, even with a magnifying glass.

This is a seed from nirvana. Blue Mystic Auto Flower that Failed to Start bloom or even show sex at the age it was supposed to.

It is now a little over 6 weeks old with no sign of sex.

I am going to run with 12/12 in the hopes to get something.

Cant take pics cause my wife has camera in NC on vacation with the kids for three weeks starting today.

She is a lovely Plant. I just cant get over how she has branched out in the dark spell. Her Sites have went light green and fade from center to tips in a light to dark green fashion. Bent her stretch down a little and tucked my fans. Set timer for twelve twelve, and crossing my fingers she will bloom. Sure looks like she wants to.

First off autoflowers should be on a 24/0,20/4 or 18/6 light cycle. They show sex all on their own, there is no need to force flowering. If it hasn't started flowering by now then it simply isn't an autoflower.

Yeah No Shit. Had her on 18/6 for the 6 weeks. Hasn't showed so i am now going to Force Flower Her. I take it she is a regular photo-period plant. Looking forward to this journey, If she flowers, I shall be one pleased Felow Grower.

it takes some days (up to a week) for a photoresponse

otherwise you have a light leak, which would need fixing to enter flower

good luck

No light leaks. Had her in a closed bathroom in the tub with curtain closed for over 48 hours. The bathroom was never touched. I have had in a sealed space. Will push this twelve twelve in the a dark manner.

You probably right, it takes so many generations of breeding to get autoflowering to become a dominant gene that you may just have caught the reg seed out of that crop.

yep it will flower, Updated pics? Think that 5th pic had a raised calyx.. but I can't tell. You positive its female?
I see the raised calyx. That is what I was pointing out on that session of my journey. There arent any updated pics as my camera is out of possesion at the moment, Yeah they looked male at the time but other flowerinf spots look female too. I just want to flower the thing regardless. Hoping to pull something great along with the education.
