Flowering buds

Hi there guys, first grow, first thread! I have 2 Northern Light x Big Bud plants in a 3x3 Tent in soil flowering. Back story first is they were supposed to be Autoflowers but after day 86 on 18/6 I had to flip to 12/12 to flower. I was afraid to put back on 18/6 or 20/4 in case it re-veg cause it’s possible that they were just feminized seeds and not autoflowers. They are suppose to flower for 56-63 days, it’s day 31 now and on one plant the hairs are getting pretty brown and that plant is lanky, can strain go earlier than 56? Will plants put more weight on as well? I’m using cal mag 2 ml, 2ml flora nova grow 5ml, hydroplex 2ml, floralicious plus 1 ml. I’m still not sure if I should flush or not and when I should do it. Seems like information overload looking online

No they cant and the 56-63 days is likely bullshit as well. Yes some hairs turn brown during flowering, it doesent mean anything. Even most of the hairs can turn brown before the plant makes its last wave of new pistils when fattening up in the end. Add 2-3 weeks to that 56-63 days and you will likely get a more realistic time frame.

Breeders 99% of the time bullshit the flowering time so that they get more sales because everyone wants fast as possible.

I grow alot of autos.

The time frames you hope for are not a thing. Im sorry.

Tack a couple weeks on.

Basically what I have seen is if they say 10 weeks from seed to harvest thats is more like 12-13.

Yeah figures, I’m actually in week 17 and only started my 4th week in flower from flip so I think these are leaning towards a photo genealogy
