I need help trying to figure out if this clone I got is an auto flower.

When I first picked her up the grower said that she might have some autoflower in her because she was growing white hairs with 24 hour light, I was cool with that I wanted a flower that will finish fast, I was told she should finish with in 7 weeks, being 4 weeks in I don't see much flowering.

Day 1

30 days later I been running her under 24 hour light since, but I am now having second thoughts about whether she is an auto flower.

I am limited on space and height so I am scroging as much as possible.

Day 33 of 24 hour light.

Generally speaking most growers that clone plants do not clone autos. What light cycle are you using?
The grower I got it from said that he got it back from someone who had it, and thinks that some how it might have gotten crossed with a auto flower.

She has been under 24 hour light since I got her so 33 days.

It may have a bit of auto in it but my thought is photo period.

Good Luck and Great Growz

Not sure what you mean by photo period? But if she has auto in her does she need 12/12 light?

I am running out of room in my tent, so I need her to go into full bloom and stop stretching and from past experience they stop stretching 3 weeks into flowering.

So my option here is to switch to 12/12 to make sure she goes into flowering?

Mature photoperiod strains still show sex (grow pistils) when they are old enough. It could be just that.
It could also be cut from a photoperiod plant that has already been in 12/12 a couple of weeks.

"Not sure what you mean by photo period?"
--- That means non-auto, a strain that will stay in veg indefinitely if the nights stay short.

If it were auto dominant 24 hours or 12/12 does not make much difference. Autos are pretty much in flower from day one regardless of light cycle.

Autos have a veg cycle but its pretty short ~30 days or so.Throwing pistils at the internodes just means the plant is sexually mature.I would veg it probably like a reg photosensitive plant at 18/6.If the terminal nodes start to form calyx clusters(small buds) shortly you have an autoflower and can stay at 18/6 until harvest.If it doesnt bud after a couple weeks,you probably have a normal clone and treat accordingly.

But honestly I think you have a normal sexually mature photosensitive plant thats just waiting for 12/12 to flower.
