Hi everyone.
So I'm tryibg to figure out what's going on with my Autoflowering northern lights. I sprouted it on May 9th and started growing it outdoors along side a bunch of plants from regular seed (not feminized). After the first true leaves appeared I moved it outside and basically it seemed to go dormant. I live in northeastern USA and we had a cold snap about the second week of may. Anyway for the next 3 weeks it sat there not growing. So i moved it inside to a small hydro setup and it then took off. It's been 3 weeks since then (almost 7 weeks total) and I have not one stigma showing. My concern is the dormant period somehow stunted it and it will not flower at all. Does anyone know anything about these Autoflowering plants? I'm not new to cultivation but i am to auto's. Will she flower or is it a lost cause and I should start another? Thanks guys!

You've broken rule #1 and that is never ever disturb or stress an Auto Flowering plant. They go into shock and take their time coming out of it. If you have other projects to start I'd do it and drop this auto like its hot. They just do not have the ability to recover once their delicate balance is disturbed. Very wimpy plants compared to their regular cousins.

Stop changing its environment,
Cannabis has grow and slow periods.
Put it in one spot and leave the poor thing alone. You cant force it to do what you expect it to do, it will do its own thing.
Dont throw it out, just stop messmesmessing with it and it'll be fine.

Thanks everyone.

I moved it once because as I said it got cold and wasn't growing. Otherwise it has been in hydro and happy since.

Hi redeyedfrog.

Here are pics of my auto NL. She's beautiful and lush and full.
I think I didn't explain well how I have treated her since I've gotten feedback saying I messed with her. What I did was sprout the seed in peat moss in one of those little plastic "greenhouses". Once the first true leaves appeared I planted the peat pellet with the sprout in dirt outside in a pot. I had a cold snap come through the area I live in a few days after putting her in the pot. I left her alone for about 2-3 weeks hoping she would grow and do well. She never grew even one more leaf. So after 3 weeks I moved her into my little hydro unit. Since then she has taken off with explosive growth. The pics I'm posting are of her today (7/3/2015) ~25 days since I moved her indoors.
Thanks.
