Autoberry may not be an Auto?

I know errors can happen not sure if I caused it.

I have what I thought was an Fem Autoberry but it still hasn't really started to flower. Im pretty sure its a female. Its Day 33 from the sprout and its really bushy and getting bigger than norml. What makes me scratch my head is it looks like it stared to flower slightly but thats it. It is still Growing Veg wise and adding nodes. I just switch it to 12/12 to see if it will flower now.

Now I was wondering if a nutrient deficiency or Nute burn could cause the plant to stop flowering?
Or did they just send me a random seed?

are you feeding it ?
and are the fan leaves showing blue hue's from half way to the tips?
lower to mid leaves getting crunchy edges
if so it might need some (P) or be locking it out altogether
any pics?
ive had 8 week strains start to flower at week 10
its kinda on its own schedule

anything is possible, it may have been a mistake from the seedbank, it could of been a mix up from either you or them, its easy to make a mistake like that, i have done it before, if its not flowering on 18 and 6 or 20 and 4 then iwould try switching to 12 and 12 and see what happens, good luck

No blue hue.
What started was the leaves started to lighten between the veins but the veins stayed dark. I am feeding with GH Grow, Micro, Bloom and added Cal-mag+ when the discoloration started. The Leaves are dry on the sides of some of the lower fan leaves and a few random up to are discolored.
Im feeding cal mag via folier after lights shut off.
I have the Nutes issue fixed, just wondering if flowering could be interrupted?


I know i didn't mix up the seeds, I did switch to 12/12, I really don't wanna do a 2-2 1/2 month flower. That's what I like about the Autos.

it wont flower by switching the lights if its a ruderalis
the random leaf comment makes me think of a himalaya blue diesel i had last grow it was lacking (P) & (k) mostly k
but i didnt figure that out until it veg'd for 10 weeks before starting to flower it didnt stop growing
and wouldnt flower hit it with flower nutes about a quarter dose every other water
shortly after it began flowering
thing was huge

this might help you
ya i would say its probably a nute issue slowing it down possibly ph maybe locking something out
if its still growing and not getting any worse may actually help getting a bit longer to veg

good call on the cal-mag i use it in almost all the water that touches my plants
dark veins and yellow between
your soil is probably lacking calcium

Im using 24hr tap water in a hydro bucket (Bubble Bucket)
My PH is 5.6-5.8
The highest it was 6.0, never below 5.6
I thought I could have nute locked it because I hit it right away with 1200ppm nutes @ 21 days, The plant doubled in size in 2 days but then the issues started, 2 days after the discoloration started I changed the water, started the calmag & lowered the nutes combined to 600ppm.

Hoping in 2 weeks she is flowering strong.
Thanks for the help. If anything changes I'll repost!!!!
