I'm 12 1/2 , 11 1/2. I slowly went to 12 12. Less stress.
A plant flowers below 14 10 threshold anyhow.

Ruderalis?

I hear ya, mine survived a week of 100+ temps. Actually had one girl get a sunburn. They can grow in many conditions. But environment will impact the end result. If what you have going is cool with you then so be it. Grow on dude!

My environment is perfect. But, heat is always a problem, if you don't address it. Low 80's not bad.

Yes Auto Flowering feminized plants are different. I have been running then 18/6 since I put the seeds in. Lighting remains the same through the grow and they are faster to finish usually 10 weeks. So they say. It is also said that auto flowering is the easiest to grow for a dummy like me. But, I'm a 8 week novice so most of what I say is repeated from what I read. I am completely empty in the experience dept. but gaining it ever so slowly.

Yes, if you're rich you can run them 24/0. Other options for the rest of us are 20/4 - 18/6 (Very little difference in effect between these two except cost) and 12/12 (Least effective).

I've smoked some pretty potent autos like zkittles and runtz. Well next grow try a photoperiod 1-2 in your tent. You like indica hybrids? Go with GG#4, Runtz or Zkittles i've grown those and trained them to stay low.

Thanks for that information. I've already purchased Gorilla Glue Auto, seemed appropriate in name, seeds for my next grow in this fall. Actually I picked the plants based on my experience with the retail so I have something to compare it to. I'll look at your recommendations for my spring grow.

I already got two White Widows I'm going to plant next. I normally stay away from sativa, but I'll drop my indica brain, once to try growing the famous seed !

I have been wondering if I should have made a new post for the question or not. I don't know if it would be consider double posting by the admins if I did it now.

I think my problem may be high nutes, but I'm far from sure.
