Autoflowers aren't flowering

Hi Dudes,

My current grow of a couple of lowlife AK47's autos planted in coco coir outside in sunny Thailand on a roughly 13/11 natural light cycle seems to be having a problem.

They started growing on 10th May and are now a good 10 inches tall and very busy. But they haven't started to flower. The blurb for AK47s says they should go mental and start flowering after 14 days.

The AK's get plenty of rainwater and nutes (tomorite and fish emulsion + some orchid food [well it is Thailand]) and seem very healthy with vigorous growth and in the last few days the stems have started to give off a distinctive weed smell.

Does anyone have experience with Auto AK 47s - just worried (due to lack of experience [last two grow attempts failed]) should the AK be in flower by now? Any advice appreciated

Peace

i grew some last year. are they showing sex at all? i dont think you should worry because if they were male you would definitely know by now because the males show sex really early.

im sure they are fine man just be patient. they cant not flower haha im sure it'll be any day now!

Defiantly not males, just really bushy, maybe i'm just getting impatient. Got two weeks holiday in three weeks time i was hoping for some good smoke for the beach.

BTW how long did yours flower for, from start to harvest and how much bud do you think you got per plant??

idk dude it was my first grow and it was a horrible location. they were stunted from too much rain, fluffy from super high humidity, and i definitely harvested too early haha. i probably got like 3/4 of an oz off 2 plants but dont use that as a reference.

since they havent started flowering yet i wouldnt expect them too finish until late july-early august. i know the breeder pack says 60 days but dont go by that. thats estimated from an indoor setup with a 1000watt hps and ideal conditions. i think i started mine around the last week of june and harvested mid august but i should have waited another 2 weeks. of course they could be ready earlier than that, i dont know.

:peace:&:leaf:
