I currently have these babies on 24/24hr cylce. What is general opinion with autos, is it really neccesary to give them darkness surely the more light they get the bigger the yield?
Some people on here, and breeders, believe that plants (like any living thing) need a dark cycle. Your plants may stretch a little more in darkness, as they search for the light. Completely up to you though, autos will grow well with anywhere between 18-24 hours of light - just depends how much you like spending on electricity! If you're gonna change it, only do it once and don't keep messing with it.
I think you should have bigger pots man, as most recommend planting directly in the pot you'll be harvesting from, with 3 gallons seeming to be the norm for soil.
If you're going to transplant and change the light cycle, I'd suggest you do it at the same time so you only run the risk of stunting growth once.
Looking good though dude, happy and healthy it seems. You got two plants in one pot? What happened there? Twins!
