I can't give you good advice about light schedules because I'm growing autflowers. I think when you open your own topic you can get more advice for your specific situation. I'm also very curious to see your grow setup Also a quick photo update (with more pistils wooohooo!)
Don't take this as gospel or anything, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that it takes more than one day of 12/12 to trigger flowering. Maybe someone else here knows for sure?
You would need more than 1 day of 12/12 for them to trigger flower if you want to keep veggin go back to 18/6 if you want to flower then go to 12/12 auto help page if you need help with autoflowers http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1294434-Need-help-with-autos?-Welcome new vote page sept please vote http://www.dutch-passion.nl/en/photovote/2014-09-03-autoultimate%C2%AE-loki_1752/

If its an autoflower: never go to 12/12. 18/6 is a good schedule you can run the whole grow, for both veg and flower. Because its an autoflower you want as many light hours as possible. 12/12 will decrease your yield, you can even run them on 24/0 if you want. Nice setup you have there! If you have problems with manually operating the lights you can better buy a timer.
thats a cool set up weedie i love it.....heres my oldest girl day 47.........stinks inside the tent god bless carbon filters lol
Man those ladies are looking great! What are you growing? A white strain? I love the NL color scheme on your buds, its one of the reasons I really want to grow NL (and also the low smell, because I'm growing stealth). How many gramms dry weight do you think it is?
from what im aware of its not its a 75% indica 25% sativa autoflower but its been playing tricks on me some droopy fans leaves around the new growth and i cant seem to correct it everything im doing its perfect temps soil ph loki of another forum suggested it could be pheno but not 100% sure i think it could be a zinc problem but time will tell first timer mistakes wil always come
The color really came our nicely on this northern for sure. The low temperatures during flowering were probably why. Usually dipped to mid 60s at morning and late night. I'm expecting about a little shy of 2 ounces dry. Since the nugs are rock hard, I don't think they'll dry out too much. It would have yielded much more if my other light had not fallen on the main cola. I'll take a picture of my critical mass auto flower. Has similar symptoms as yours but I think it's just the plant stretching during the beginning of the flowering period with the leaves catching up. I could be wrong though.
Im currently facing some heat troubles, didnt think of a t5 would absorb that much.. Hit the 90 degr today..even with a venti blowing between lights and the plants ( i guess thats way too hot isnt it?!)
I think a plant begins to stunt growth at about 84+. I recommend getting 2-3 one gallon jugs and freezing water in them. Cycle the jugs and sit them infront of the vent to cool. You might also have to consider exhausting some of the hot air out of the space as well as bringing fresh/cooler air from outside of the space.
100% agree with this ive a 400w nd never have heat problems extractor is well needed helps with smell to and the jugs of water is brilliant i keep a bowl of water at my vent hole helps with humithdy to =)
