I've got an auto on 12/12 but only becuase it never started flowering before I switch it to 12/12.
It def. won't hurt your auto to go 12/12, but it could in theory hurt your yield as ruderalis finishes faster and takes advantage of the long summer days

germinated another GH exodus cheese and mandala chill-om 2 days ago, going into the dirt today. im thinking the ten chill-om seeds i bought may be a bunk batch. this will be the 3rd seed im growing from the ten and the first 2 were just crappy(slow growth and dead seedling). hopefully not but im trying again anyway.
hey riu! this auto is growing like crazy. cant wait to see what happens in another 9 days lol.
The exodus cheeese is amazing as well. pretty much doubled in width in those 9 days as well. fan leaves are getting huge! and since i lst'd i have 8 or 9 main tops and there all pretty level which is nice.
ive got 2x68 watt 2.7k and 2x 42 watt 2.7k on the auto and 1x125 watt 5k on the exodus cheese. DO YOU THINK ITS ENOUG FOR NOW?
heres some pics let me know what you think!!!!

Plants looking good and I'm sure that's enough light, given that your working in such a small space

Nice job! Get some Panty hose and layer them over that fan to block that blue out, unless you plan on running 24/7 light. That blue LED will be enough to fuck with your seedlings sleep!
good idea, maybe i will just take one off my computer i have like 5 on that bad boy lol. what do you think about 24/7 for the seedlings then 18/6 in veg room? should i run 18/6 for seedlings? i might get cold in there w/o the light on tho. i only plan to use this box for first 2 weeks.

Good idea regarding the fans. I bought these about 2 weeks ago http://www.walmart.com/ip/Link-Depot-80mm-Computer-Case-Fan-4-Pack-Black/15074956
You can go either boss. If youre gonna go 24/7 I would do so for just the first week.
It's what I did with my "big 3" that I'll be harvesting the next week or two.
But the seedling broke soil like a day or two faster on 24/7. I leave it on 24/7 the first week then go 18/6.
For my next grow tho, I'll go 24/7 for first week to get them up then 20/4 for the week after than, than 18/6.
Hopefully I can grow enough of a bush in 3wks to flip to flower! Thats the plan at least. I'm no longer veggin' for longer than a month unless it's a mother

Those fans are nice prolly better than the ones i have in there. 140mm intake and 120mm exhaust. the whole thing is sitting on a heating mat hoping temps reach 78-80 but doubtful. that sounds good to me 1 week 24/7 week 2 20/4 then into veg room for 18/6. i was also reading about perpetual grows. and also reading about slowly cutting lights down from 24/7 to 12/12 over a slow period of time. thinking im going to do that.

Yeahh buddy! The fans work and I got 4 of them for like $7 which i why I shared that link with you. Got em shipped to the local WallyWorld.
And cutting back the light sounds like a plan bro. Just gotta stay on top of things so you don't end up with lots of stem

question, looking at that autoflower how much do you think i will yield? 1 main cola and 4 medium size with 2 nodes and 2 small popcorns with only 1 node. im thinking not more than a quarter oz being the whole plant is like a foot tall, but i hope to be proven wrong lol. what do you think?

You won't be able to guess in the ball park until you last week of flowering bro. They change A LOT in the last two weeks! Like all the girth comes on then

They should stop stretching around the 4th-5th wk, and start looking a lot like bud during wks 5 & 6, and then they really swell up the last two weeks.
Sometimes everything happens a little faster tho. My Blue Widow should come down this weekend which'll make 8 weeks of flowering, and I thought for sure that this one would go 9/10 wks just because it's blueberryXwhite widow
If you wanna maximize your yield indoor you gotta do some sorta plant training like topping/fimming/LST to keep the plants stout.
But you gotta start all that early on and often!

i remembering reading that you shouldnt really fuck with autos at all so i didnt lst her but the exodus cheese is super lst'd check out the last pic update and see if i did a good job. i think i did its got like 7 or 8 undercolas about a half inch below the main cola so thats nice.
