Sorry to hear my friend..Keeping semiautoflower genetics in a steady Veg in anything but 24/0 is pretty tough..Some will hold and others will start blooming with maturity, or a slight drop in Nitrogen..Ive had some of my early flowering genetics bloom at maturity(~1month from seed) no matter what the light cycle...So its not like you did anything wrong.

Not too late to aquire more stock and go again..

i went in knowing that this could happen,it was an experiment i should have done at another time,i just hope some of these girls hold out in veg for me.i still need a crop this year.

I have concluded that regardless of the amount of light a plant recieves, its still going to grow if put outside in the spring(unless auto)

-18/6 to straight outside - never had any preflower
-24/0 - never any preflower
-6/18 lol i reversed the timer by accident so i had a bunch of budding clones ready for may1st when i put them out they re vegged to 10ft.. so again no preflowers outside

no matter the light, if put out in early spring mother nature will make sure they veg and not bud... at least thats how it works for me up here in New England

So what photoperiod due you keep your plants under before setting out AG? 18/6? I was thinking of trimming down from 18 incrementally to match outdoors at planting time. Or just start clones under a shorter light period and set out in early June.

I've been lurking around this thread for a few days, Aero's input really lightened my spirits.

Hey guys,
So as to not fuck up like last year, I'm planning on when I will be going to get clones and putting them out. I live at 34* N, and was thinking about getting some clones around May 14-20. The light schedule that day(may 14) would, with dawn and dusk, be 14:55 hours of light. I'm not sure whether the dispensaries will have the clones under 18/6 or 24/0 light. I'm thinking around May 14th would be ok, but..
Would it be better for me to wait another week (15:05, May 21) or even an additional two weeks from there (15:15 May 28)?
