Aging - These plants live forever

My biggest problem is getting them to mature and die.:peacock:

Used to be at more or less the suggested date (mucho online sources- most repetitious) everybody budded up and the leaves turned a glorious yellow
:woohoo:

I dont know what I changed but I suddenly got Autos pushing 120 and still budding and Oh those deep dark green leaves. And I got a bunch of terms in 12/12 flower for 95 and not a hint of getting done. All green, no yellow. Still plenty of white pistils on top of the brown pistils. Trichomes stay clear.

What Did I, Do to Get Ageless Plants?
How do I get them to die on time

:tiphat:

Last 2 weeks flushed with 2Xpot volume with plain water and palin water till the end usually kills them pretty good, I don't ever feed heavy though so no buildup ever occurs.

temperature and co2 will keep them going. too high of a temperature and they don't seem to ripen good. stay green and going.

You may be using a product that prevents senescence in the plant. That is act of growing old and dying. Many products contain growth hormones or natural products that stimulate growth regulators. Watch out for superthrive (contains gibberllins) late in flower and even stuff that contains seaweeds, which contain cytokinins. Cytokinins are used to help promote tasty flowers but also will prevent senescence. Don't discountinue stuff like floralisciuos+ but just know when to stop if you want the plant to "die".
