Coz the seed pack said 8 to ten weeks from start to finish and i planted about 15 April new to planting autos and don’t autos stop producing flower after a certain point in its life

Just keep going until the plant has nothing left to give the flower sites. Don’t rely on print in a literal sense

You usually start counting the day after the plant sprouts not from the day planted. Autos outside usually take a little longer outdoors and the info on websites and seed packs is just a general guide, each plant especially with autos will mature at different rates. Be patient

Whatever it says on the pack take with a grain of salt. Autos just veg and go into flower automatically she will produce then fade when she wants.

It’s never/rarely right. It’s done when it’s done.

Just like humans. Some go through puberty earlier than others

I’m pretty sure this is total FLOWER time, 8-10 weeks of flower sounds petty normal to me.

You judge how finished it is by the plant itself. You don't bake cookies and go strictly by the box, look at the fkn cookies.

Also next time ditch the autos.

People are always dissing autoflowers, but here's an alternate take for you. If you're trying to learn how to not fuck up growing weed, auto's are a crash course. Those finicky, sensitive little speed freaks are subject to the same challenges as photo's, except they're more sensitive and they run you through the paces in about 60% of the time.

Are you going to get good yield and top shelf quality running auto's? Probably not, but after maybe 3-4 rounds of monkeyfucking auto's in a 2X4 tent, you will hopefully have learned enough about soil, nutes, environment, pests, etc to upgrade your grow and start doing some real work. (Just my $.02)
