Yeh if you stick around I'll have pics up fridayInteresting. So are they all on 12/12 now?
Really appreciate you taking the time to post that. Cheers.I would be careful switching to 12/12, true the auto's that weren't flowering responded greatly to the switch, this is because the ruderallis gene is obviously recessive in those pheno's, the photoperiod gene's would be dominant hence the traditional behaviour when switching cycles, the phenotypes displaying the traditional autoflowering trait have the dominant ruderallis gene and should be treated as such, i've found rather than have a regular dark period, once a week i take the girls out of the veg cabinet for 6 hours of darkness, this works with my hormone application but i've noticed the most consistent growth while practicing this with no hermies, this could be the spray but whatever it is, my cola's are swelling impressively beyond my expectations for the yield for these babies. I wouldn't switch any auto to 12/12 unless it was to force flowering when it has failed to auto
For those that have been following along this is the last day of light for the White Sharks (Not a Auto). They will go into darkness until Saturday morning. I also cleaned them up a bit today to get some good light below. I took one more seed from her (White Shark #2 female x Snowryder #3 male), it was nice and shiny with beautiful dark tiger striping.
I'll take photo's of the Snowryders later. Tomorrow will be their last day of water. Until then here are the last shots before I get ready to harvest.
I don't think dropping the light hours will speed up the maturing process at all, auto's have a pre determined life span, only thing i could think of aside from using a nasty pgr would be to give them at least 24 hours of darkness before you harvest to try and ripen them up a bit, if you've got the indica dom, comparing to mine which hit 10.5 weeks today, you should be ok looking at mine, more couch stone but i think mine has much more weight to put on in the next week or two but your harvest should still be good.
