This is the most information I have recieved based on my specific situation. I've stayed silent the last 2+ months while growing these two plants, not wanting to sound like a noob who is bothering people with questions that have been answered 25 times in the last week. So I've done it all on my own.

So how bad I wonder have I messed up my plants by doing 12/12 lighting for the last 3+ weeks? Have I significantly lowered my yeild? I already expected to have a small yeild. I am only growing these for myself as medicine essentially.

They are in small pots and have never been transplanted.......and are probably root bound.....how imperitive is it that I try to transplant them into a bigger pot at this stage? Transplanting them is something I have no clue how to even begin to do without hurting the plant or making a huge mess. The pots I have are about the size of a 3 liter soda pop bottle cut off about half way up.......about the same length as they are wide. So as wide as a 3 liter soda bottle and as tall.

Something interesting I noticed is that last night my nap turned into being alseep all night and the plants got an extra 4 hours of light, and when I checked them today at noon to turn the lights back on, some of the problems i had mentioned had improved a bit.

So some more questions, first of all, how do I post pictures? Second of all, I am using 4 of the yellow type lights, should I put back in a white light bulb or two for a better spectrum? Would it hurt the plant to put it on 24 hr light since its an autoflower strain? I want to get this thing ready for harvest ASAP and start 2 more plants of the same breed (blue mystic feminized autoflower).

Is it better to stick with autoflowering strains considering I live in an apartment that has family members (inlaws) visit often who would literally call the cops on me if they knew I was growing plants? Thats also why they are in a PC grow case in my computer room, but my inlaws (who babysit often) are nosey as hell..... My seed bank sent me some "New York Power Deisel" seeds that aren't feminized or autoflower.....I suppose I could just start the flowering light cycle with those very early to keep it a small plant? How early is too early? Suggestions on what to do with my NYPD seeds? Save 'em till next spring maybe and plant them in some woods in the country and hope for the best? Give them to you? (J/k of course)

Guys thanks for the great advice! Heres hoping I can put them on a 20/4 or a 24 hr light cycle and harvest 'em up in a couple weeks. Will post pics when I figure out how. Thanx again.
