Cheers guys....wish they all got that fat. Will see how ripped I can get off it over the net few days as I've got a week off work and bugger all planned 
Had a buddy round for a smoke tonight and had to show him the other plant was still going after he saw the full tubs. He thought that was both of them dried

Maybe I should get more bud tubs .....
Eventually got round to dismantling the NFT system the APG was in:
Will have a closer look at the APA in a bit.
The APG smoke is starting to get pretty nice......can see why they didn't call it Auto Red Diesel as the diesel flavour seems well diluted with something I guess you could call grapefruit. Nice mellow stone too....as easy to smoke as it was to grow kind of thing

Once you move that tank can you move the other plant more centrally under the light? Doesnt look like it will take too much longer till it ready to chop. Also seems there be a bit more trim on that one and more popcorn. I reckon if you got 12.5+oz from the first auto you'll get something similar from the other. Should keep you going for a while. Still got a wee bit of the vk left and now working my way through the bubble. 25ų is now finished so just the 73ų, 120ų and 160ų bags to go through. Used some of the 160ų for cookies the other day - banging!

New one already moved and managed to get a half hour window to get the res and stuff downstairs to get washed out so am just in the process of letting that settle before I get another seed in it. Maybe after this joint
Not done close ups of Raquel but can see buds and stems purpling and res pH rising with a steady EC of around 2.0 and 5L of full strength nutes and a splash of diluted pH down each day. Buds are starting to swell and get a little lean on so hopefully not too long to go now.
Pics tomorrow hopefully.
When Raquel comes down Violator Kush is going in that res and my light going back to 12/12. I'll run both photos and autos on 12/12 from seed to see how that goes for me.
Oh aye, bud washing.......tried it but time and space constraints......you know.....one of these days I'd like to be doing it, I think. Done properly it reduces unwanted bacterial endotoxins or summat. Might be more important if you're plants are breathing exhaust fumes and have beasties crapping on them though....or if I saw much dust on my flowers.

Autos aren't the priority though; keeping me in Kush is. 12/12 may improve bud density even if it doesn't increase size or overall yield so it's not all bad for autos and it lets me run my favourite strain while I try out others.
I reckon I'll still get decent sized plants if I grow them in NFT and under HPS....only one way to find out

Cheers buddy. it's nice been able to see what is going on underground and I seem to be pretty lucky with res temps. Low humidity seems to be my biggest problem at the moment. ...under 30% so have taken to spraying water about the place and put buckets of water under the fans but it's barely made a difference.

Cheers guys, did the wet bath towel thing while drying but need to sort something long-term so I'll go look for humidifiers. Need to go get more bloom nutes anyway.....probably used over 2 litres for this grow (~1 litre a plant but the APA has had more nutes than the APG). I got extra grow nutes at the start of this grow too but didn't need to open them.....I maybe used a couple of hundred ml grow nutes per plant so a fresh 2l bottle should last me a while.
Only about a third of the way down a 125ml bottle of pH down after 3 grows.....a little of that seems to go a long way

Thanks buddy....and aye....I think she's ready too
It definitely helps. Tried some off cuts of NFT spreader mat as wicks but that doesn't seem to work too well.
I guess I'll just have to hope the other half doesn't notice the missing towels in the meantime
Perhaps look at getting a 2 in 1 humidifier/dehumidifier that way you have the best of both worlds and can keep the RH the same all the way through the grow and keep it constant when you come to drying. Looks likes she is ready to chop but your trichs are your best indication as to whether she is ready to chop or not. What looks good from looking at the outside may not be ready once you look more closely. Good job though and in a short space of time you have come on leaps and bounds.
