Ok because I'm lazy and I haven't looked it up yet is a 12/12 light cycle good for autos?
It's not ideal. I read somewhere that tests showed 20/4 seems to be the best option for most production vs cost. Bigger plants and yields than 18/6. The difference between 20/4 and 24/0 is negligible and not worth the extra energy costs. That said, do what works for you and your plant. They will flower on 12/12 but will be lacking the energy needed to maximize your harvest.

Very cool thanks for that I'm being gifted with some very soon and on an information gathering mission
I actually grew these under a cheap sunrise led board 300watt.. I been using roots organic soil.. I use to use bottle nutes but got tired of measuring like mad scientist. i.switched to greenleaf mega crop original..powder Small scale 4 grams per gallon ..I do use rain water ..I have rain barrels and collect jugs of water .. I use recharge every so often .. and flowering I use greenleaf sweetcandy its powder it's 2 grams in with megacrop ..with powder I use Gatorade jug warm water to dissolve ..I run my photoperiod same way but move them to a flower tent ..

Sounds like a solid system and by the looks of it it is working well for you

This run was a Spider Farmer SF7000 that I won in a giveaway here. It draws 640 at the wall on 100% and did a good job this run considering how crazy my canopy height got. I might try the other light I have which is 700 watts and a bar design for a little better spread in the 5x5 tent next.
Witch one of them are you waiting on to try smoking first

Probably the Purple Punch as several people have posted that cut is weak potency wise and I'm wanting to see how it works for me. It's easy to grow, has great structure and looks beautiful with the dark purple leaves. Bubblegum is another one I'm excited about as I want to see how the flavor and terps are and if it's a real Bubblegum smell.

... How do? ...
That's a pretty apt depiction of the our adaptation from the warmth to the approaching cold. And even though it's still about 1 month away, I'm feeling it now. Starting the day with a Jackee.

Oh great - it's after Thanksgiving now so there will be no sleeping in until the ice arrives. The duck hunters start shooting the second the sun peeks over the horizon. BOO!! HISS!!
