For a decent result yes you definitively can do that. If I remember right 5 or 6 hours of sun is the minimal amount the plants need. Then the more the better but you are way above the minimal.

There is deficiency going on (looks like cal) she is an auto flowering strain in her 9th week and been flushed for a week now. Should I give her cal/mag and stop the flushing or is it too late to deal with that? She looks like she will be ready to chop in a week or so.

Autoflower not flowering after 3 months
I'm growing a dwarf auto-flowering strain in a greenhouse outdoors. Its now been 12 weeks since it sprouted and no sign of flowers. Someone else mentioned that autoflowers sometime switch to photoperiod outdoors. Is this a possible explanation or am I just being impatient?

Any Suggestions for next time?
Got any good suggestions for next grow based on my most recent diary? We are at day 67 today. What can be improved for next grow? Any good strains or seedbanks for fat buds? If I run autos, can I fit two in a 20 gal of topdress living soil?

Does this Gold Leaf auto need to be thinned or SCROG'ed?
Should I thin her out? Should I SCROG? Does she look healthy? I've done a lot of LST and water with a pH 6. She's a Gold Leaf autoflower at 7 weeks, 2 days.
