Also i think they are a sponsor of the mag. I have been giving a little extra Dark to my girls and they are starting to swell up. I wonder If u gave them 24hrs dark every third day in last 2 weeks how much they would swell...and since light degrades THC there might be a last minute crazy boost. Hmm... back to the archives! Good luck

another update also a couple questions i could really use help with.. i am about 4 weeks flowering give or take a day or two, these plants while they were under 18 hrs light started showing buds all over. then once i flipped to 12/12 they took off. they are still swelling like crazy but im not sure when these are gonna be done. i dont wanna cut myself short but i also dont wanna wait too long. im thinking i should feed them once more with nutes an then just straight water for 10 days or so an they will be done ? the strain is mighty mite but im not sure if its ligit mighty mite because they are an auto flower an maybe i could give them more light then 12 hrs, maybe like 16 hrs or something... if anyone could help me thatd be greaaaat.. also while im flushing can i use molasses along with my straight water ?? i wanna keep the juices flowin but still organic style

i would switch your lighting schedule back to 18/6, that should provide your auto flowers plenty of light. to judge when they are finished and should be harvested you need a 30x jewellers loop to see the trichomes and their colour. most people harvest from 5% to 30% amber trichomes. 5% amber trichomes gives more of a "head high" energetic high 30%-50% gives more of a "body stone" sedative effect, strain dependent.

okay so you think i should put the lights that long on eh. im so nervous that that mioght ruin them or something lol. i mean im not 100% that they are auto flowers. im like 80% sure. but what is the worst case scenario if they arent an i switch my lights ?

 

[Spimp]

Take this fo what its worth, from my reading i would say:
If u switch 18/6 and they are photo, they will revert to veg taking the hormones from bud production to increase the plants overall size. You can always switch them back to 12/12 in a week if you notice they height increasing when previously it had ot. Worst case senerio is a hermie. Some of the growers here think ifyou shut the door too loudly it will cause hermies. Others say hermies = free generation 2 seeds.
My opinion is if you are 80% sure, 18/6. Because best case senerio is extra bud growth. 6 hours per day = 42 extra hours of lights per week. Thats a lot of swollen buds sir.
