Auto-flower?

Anyone know if the Blue Dream is an auto-flower:?: My 3 ladies recently had a little down time from the lights and had minimal exposure for 3-4 days and I noticed the tell-tale hairs of beginning buds! I'm ready to flower but wanted to wait another week to combat stress. I brought them all home on Valentine's Day ;-) 2/14 and have had them in Veg. since (18on, 6off) for 67 days:!:

There might be a Blue Dream auto out there, but most likely it's not if you were vegging 67 days without preflowers showing around day 30. Where did you get the seeds? Did you leave the lights off for 3-4 days? Seeing as they vegged for 67 days which is well enough to get them started on flowering, the down time probably triggered the flowering hormone because the plant thought it's life was coming to and end so it started to produce, produce...

You'll probably add to their stress if you revert them back to vegetative growth now that you've allowed those pre-flowers to emerge. A week in veg, then back into flower again would just send the hormones on a roller coaster and you'd probably end up with hermies in the end. Of course, I could be totally wrong...

Yeah they are ready to flower man. Some people even give them a couple days darkness to kick start the flowering. I've never done it that way. If it was an auto it prob would have kicked into flower sooner regardless of light schedule. But I have never tried an auto. You should have a nice yield with 67 days. I would get them on 12/12 now should be fine.

Yeah, I think I just scared the little lady with those few days of darkness. Thx for the 411 re:auto-flowering. Don't think it's an auto either, just checkin'.

Cool, hope everything goes well. Another tidbit of info for you. You will never get a clone that is an autoflower because they can't be cloned. Also I agree with you 100% clones are a safer bet. Why waste money on seeds unless you want to change strains?

Plants show sex during veg if vegged long enough. And 67 days is about 8 weeks so thats pretty long
