Autoflower with not budding

I got a freebie auto in my attitude order and it's a Kannabia Auto hobbit or whatever, it's been growing for a long time. I don't know exactly but it has to be AT LEAST 70 days from seed. I'll admit it hasn't been getting the best lighting in under my veg light 600w HPS at 24/0 running between 50% - 100%.

I don't have pictures but I'll grab them tomorrow, the plant is COVERED in THC even on the stems but the plant has pretty much no developed buds? Is it just because it was under lit? Or anything to do with 24hr on?

Besides the lack of buds it looks healthy and crystally as fuck.

I'm tired of wasting my light on it so I threw it outside for now, but like I said I'll get pics tomorrow.

I'd try to step down the lights, it may be one of those strains that flowers under less than 24 hour light.

I had the exact same issue with the same freebie. My hobbit did not autoflower under 20/4 light. I moved it to a 12/12 tent and while it did flower, it was very low on flower production. Kannabia is known to have unstable genetics. On the upside, those little buds sure did pack a punch when I chopped it. Mine grew to about 4 ft tall. I had it in 20/4 for 40days before moving it into my flower 12/12 tent for another 40days.
I have seen a grow journal of a Hobbit that did autoflower, and it was short and bushy with big buds finishing in 62 days under 20/4. Like I said unstable genetics.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but from my understanding it won't grow any new buds because it has already gone through that flowering stage, so if I leave it outside it will pretty much do nothing then?

It looks crazy good minus the lack of buds, so I guess I'll just try and make some bubble out of it? Unless anyone has a better idea.

mine did fine under 24, and then once flowering started moved her to the greenhouse thats light assisted on 24 hrs. shes coated in trichomes, and smells wonderful, just no amber yet so im letting her keep going.
 
these are growing fast in tiny pots.. one is a tiny pheno.. there are 4 kannabia specials and 5 big band. I think I am going to switch to 14/10 or 12/12 right now I am at 18/6. I am growing in a motel lol so when the made comes I stick them in the cupboards. and I take down the lighting.. you wouldn't even know theres a grow.. fuck I got balls.

Kannabia auto's require 12 to 14 hours of light and no more to flower. I have grown most of there strains and have had some great success with them but had the same issues with their auto's and when I finally turned off the lights they budded out nicely.
