So after nine weeks one would think the Pineapple auto would have flowered? Well it hasn’t happened so I tried the two days of darkness and will now introduce the 12/12 cycle. My question after bringing them from the dark, all the flower locations have yellowed a bit? Would the yellowing be expected and will this correct itself. Thanks folks
Welcome to the site!
Are you sure it’s an auto and not a photo? I’ve made this mistake a few times myself! You should start to see see some flowering action once the 12/12 cycle kicks in, proving it’s likely a photo.
Yes they were purchased and received in an auto flowering vial clearly marked pineapple. If it were a genetic issue I wouldn’t know how to deal with that, like is the plant a loss or just let it continue skyward

That doesn’t mean that there couldn’t have been a mix up when packing seeds, also depending on the breeder you could be dealing with a recessive genetic from the non ruderalis parent. It’s like when you have kids. Sometimes your kids look more like your dad then they do you.
Welcome to the community. Try flipping to a 12/12 light cycle.

What’s you light I’ve heard if it’s to high blue spectrum then some strains hold off on going into flower far longer then normal
Yellowing or light green? During flower stretch that’s normal. It’s growing so quick there’s no chlorophyll in the new growth yet. So it’s lime green/yellowish. When you check back later that growth will be dark and the new growth lime green. Till she slows down.
The good news. She’ll be budding soon.
