It would seem so. It’s been 55 days from germinating. I started spraying from the first set of true leaves but I was going heavy with dosing.
I’ve been giving the correct (for potatoes lol) 33mg/litre for the last few weeks and it’s stil vegging. Nodes aren’t even alternating.
I reckon so. It’s about finding the right dose. Too much seems to stall the plant but even that has application for a mother plant you want to keep small.
33mg may be too low a dose because the very newest growth on the top looks female. Until I dropped the dose, you couldn’t of even sexed it. It’s still in veg but I’m going to mist it twice a week from here (at same dose) so effectively double the application.
I took cutting at the same time from regular photoperiod strains so we have control for the auto clone.
I’ve haven’t done it yet. June and July is about it here. The cost of auto seeds put me off because I would guerrilla them and that’s too risky for expensive seeds.
If I can make clones, that’s a different proposition. Not only can I make as many as I like for free, they will be reliably homogenous and predictable. I can also veg them.

I wonder if this would work with regular auto seeds, if, at the point of seeing one is female that it can be sprayed to stop the flowering. Or does it need to be done at germ?
I started spraying with a high dose from first true leaves onward. It definitely keeps an auto in veg.
If the cutting roots, we know they can be cloned. If it works and I had regular autos to sex, I would spray from true leaves, root a clone and not spray the clone so you find out that way without risking your seed mother flowering.
I was just wondering, cuz I have read that with some photos, if the males decide that they are male, sometimes they just won't stop, no matter if put back into 24 hours light. Just wondering if that was a thing with 'auto' traits.
But Spaventa has the 'just to be safe' answer to the problem. Might be tough to keep all those male cuts until sure about sex, but that's the way it is!

Tryptophan doesn’t pause day neutral plants. It helps flower/fruit in those plants like strawberries, cucumbers etc. Those that tested found heavier harvests with Tryptophan applied throughout the plants life.
Some of the spray I aim at the auto goes on nearby regular (Neville’s Haze) plants and the only thing I noticed was faster root development.

Lots of weed flavors and effects come from tryptophan. 2-Aminobenzenecarboxylic acid for example leads to couch lock Purp. Maybe why dispo kids don't know what couch lock or purp flavor is, even tho all their bud is purple indica. They feed Nitrate, not aminos. They don't get the strain effect.
That's the difference between medical grade terps and dispo spray terps: Amino-derived volatiles end up as medicine in your lungs. Evaporating liquid floor cleaner terpenes are not attached to anything, not even a sugar molecule. When they break down, they turn into toxins. The same toxins that dispo bud comes stock with thanks to the phos boosters, which break down into even worse toxins.
