Awesome man! Im stoked that my seeds made it safely to you and you are able to run them! After the first shipment got crushed in the mail I learned a valuable lesson ha ha. It looks like the Headlights Kush cross has already taken off thats a great sign! Looks like super healthy seed batch. I feel like I should disclaim to everyone that I have not ran the Headlights Kush yet it is 100% a prototype. I made that seed stock earlier in 2020 and out of a handful of different auto crosses that one was the healthiest. Seeds came out looking stellar and I could tell based off those nice fat seeds that the parents genetics paired well together. I think its gonna be a healthy vigorous cross đź‘Ť

Well in the past the worst issue that I have came across when making auto seeds are some hermies in the mix. I have also seen fox-tailing and loose buds on some of the more sativa leaning phenotypes. It is very rare that I come across issues like that the majority of times I make seeds they come out solid. Thats how mother nature goes sometimes you just never know until you run your stock. I think they are gonna be good because the seeds were just so dam healthy they developed really quickly too. It was like the Headlights Kush and the Royal Headband were just horny for each other as soon as I splashed the pollen it was like... BAM! Hundreds of seeds. It was almost like there wasn't a single pistol on the whole plant that wasn't seeded. Seeds were everywhere literally falling out of the buds.

Yeah fox-tailing is not always a bad thing its just that personally I prefer solid and hard nugs. Light and fluffy nugs are OK as long as they are frosty but I always will prefer the density if I can get it. This is the reason why personally I prefer strains that do not foxtail as much I would rather the nugs finish quickly with as much density as possible.

Here is a perfect example of the fox-tailing I just found this pic on a google search. This is what I mean when sometimes I have had issues with this. It is still totally smokeable but the nugs are big and open and loose instead of tight like they should be...

Hopefully you don't see any of these issues. I have ran the Afghan many times and those ones always come out great you should be fine with those ones. As a matter of fact the picture in my Avatar is of the Afghan Auto from the exact seed run that I sent you! đź‘Ť

Cool! Love to see that man super cool. Those Afghan auto seeds are 2 or 3 years old so it makes sense that they are a little slow to the party. It's great to know that the Afghan is still viable that one is my fav. I haven't ran it in a while cuz I had a whole bunch of new auto stuff that I was trying out instead. I did a bunch of crosses. In 2020 summer I ran Gelato from FastBuds that came out stellar the frostiest and most potent auto that I have ran thus far. Not quite as tasty as the Afghan but definitely most potent. Almost looked white the nugs were so frosty. I wish I would have taken pics I don't think I did but man it was bomb I smoked through the whole jar real quick. I pollen chucked that Gelato got a grip of those seeds super healthy with stripes and everything Im gonna be running those in 2021 also. Im gonna be doing an outdoor auto run soon with a cornucopia of new shit. Im gonna do a cross with the Ethos genetics Pluto Cut Auto. One of the highest THC autos currently on market labeled at 30%. That Pluto kush cut was crossed with the OG Kush Ruderalis to create his hottest auto line to date. BTW if these runs come out good I will send you a care package with some other new shit đź‘Ť

I just started 2 Pluto Cut's, 2 Banana Daddy, and 1 Banana Hammock all from Ethos. Friend of mine gave me the seeds and his reasoning for picking them out was as you describe the THC content. Looking forward to seeing what becomes of my grow, but it is my first so fingers crossed.

Nice! Pretty much sounds like my setup. I've got their 6 inch as my exhaust and their 4 inch as my intake. What's cool is you can connect them to the same controller/settings.
I have the same humidifier as well and the RH in my tent climbs like crazy when I have it set at 55, but does practically nothing when set to 50. As a matter of fact it dips below 50RH as it registers on the probe, yet the humidifier doesn't turn on. I think as the plants grow and the tent fills up the main problem I foresee is keeping the RH down

It seems like a constant balancing act/dialing-in throughout the grow as conditions change daily, etc. I can clearly see it being a learning process as I go. I've also had to change the fan setting and run it a bit higher to expel the temp/humidity quicker
