Auto Sweet Tooth & Auto Northern Lights

Ok here I am growing an auto sweet tooth (pictured on left) and an auto nl, I can see a couple of hairs here and there on the auto sweet tooth and the auto nl looks fine to me. Now I have seen a few posts about the auto sweet tooth not going into flowering and I think this might be the problem, so my question is can I put them on 12/12 and would this lose me some bud on the auto nl

well if you can see hairs here and there on it then its flowering and yes if you flip to 12/12 your yield will diminish some autos just take abit longer than others trick is to be PATIENT

the fact that these posts on sweet tooth not flowering and them not being taken down is annoying never had any problems with sweet tooth under 24/0 never even had to push them to flower they show sex 20 days or so then around week 5 they take off when you see them stop vertical growth for a couple days start bloom nutes

Thanks for replies, I have grown autos many times before but the sweet tooth just seems different. I will keep an update going here until harvest.

Ok I am using a 400w air cooled power plant light with a Lumatek bulb with a 400w Lumatek super loom dimmable ballast, growing in a 90*90*180 growqube. My medium is my old trusted favourite bio bizz all mix and for the first time I'm using 2*16ltr Rhizo pots. Watering is tap water left out for 24hrs and I've just recently started feeding my auto northern lights with a very diluted mixture of bio bloom, bio grow and topmax every other watering but I'll be using topmax every watering. My light schedule is 18/6. Oh yes and once a week I give them a very dilute spray of bio fish mix. So I will keep you all updated as I go along from here on in.

it's a little different grows fast and large and very easy to grow and get great results some of them take there time and others tank on through i have noticed they are very thirsty plants and growth drastically slows if they are under watered they love nutes but grow very well on good soil with out them

forgot to add is this the pheno that has the really really purple stems on the fan leaves or the purple streaked one ? the one that is straight purple stems takes a bit longer to flower/finish but yields a little more it starts a bit slower the one i have going now is the fast start but has the almost sativa stretched nodes but they still fill in nicely

i have to add im limited on space so i top them young aslong as i can keep them under 30 inches im good other wise i would just let them grow sometimes we have to find a way to get the job done and its worked for me

Sub'd - I'm wanting to grow an Auto, and Barney's Farm Sweet Tooth is my fav strain to grow, so I'm wondering how it does as an Auto.

I harvested my Auto Sweet Tooth this morning. Not a great harvest, but it had a hard life so I'm not surprised. The first thing I'm noticing is the aroma. Up close the turpene smell is overpowering, but at a distance it smells like sweet pickles to me, lol.
