You know you dont have to chang the light schedule on autos usually the best is 20 on 4 off for there full life also the max pot size for autos is 3gallons and they dont respond well to LST due to there quick growth and short life i just let mine go and there done in 8 to 10 weeks from sprout about 2 1/2 oz per plant or more

Great result. Congratulations!

Yes, the hay smell will vanish over time. Just be patient. I prefer a long curing, in my opinion it takes at least half a year for the full aroma to develop.
