Hello you guys i need your help. I have 3 sexy NL doing great. The problem im having is with light timing. When i started my grow i was under 18/6. I planted my babies on Jun 3rd using advance nuts an a 125 cool white bulb DWC. 3 weeks into my grow i turned on my 400w HPS. On July 12th i put my plants on 12/12 thinking i had a bad batch of AFs. Today (July 15) i wake up an notice my plants have started sexing. Im here today asking should i go back to 18/6?

you can go back to 18/6 if you want, more light more bud. But leave it wherever you decide to run it at. Autos flower under whatever light cycle but they still need a stable light cycle

18/6 will not cause autos to herm
Yea i understand that. They want sexing at 1st so i switched to 12/12 but i see one pis on 2 of 3. so i thought maybe the 12/12 help start flowering.

That's not correct sunni. Not at all.
I originally gave two very polite and correct posts to his questions. He asked for help and I gave him good and polite advice. He ignored my very polite and very correct responses and instead chose to show his ignorance as how to grow auto flowers.... Only after that did I say, "they're fucking autos".
im just saying i see it form outside the box, some people dont take criticizem well, best to just leave them alone than keep pestering them lol

well he has a point. and u dont want to learn the wrong things then blame the threads on rollitup, any way.. we are all here to learn... no one knows every thing there is about growing... and some times u may think u know but stand corrected, auto flowers don't need to be changed for 18 to 12/12... u will read both ppl saying change to 12/12 and others who say just stay with 18.. i would say just stay at the regular 18/6.... many ppl change over to fast ending up with not the best result. u don't switch the lights as soon as u see pistils they will still veg for a week or so.. and they will flower by them selves, no need to force the matter!!!!! don't be shy to post some pics.
WHAT dude you helped me an i took the advice. Thanks if i didnt say so.

looks delicious, would it kill you to give them just a few more days? The leaves will be frosted evenly and completely as well as the buds. If you start to get too many ambers than you'd like then chop the ladies. But of course there are some people who like amber trichs
