Hum.. I wouldn't say that.. I'm not sure if your talking about for veg or wtf? but I like 24 hours under MH and 18 under a hps, for veg..

and I have pics to prove it

But who knows with me I am using flower nutes in veg..

because I can...And I know the truth...:-P

All the breeders say 20/4 is the ideal light cycle no switching is required for flowering.

what are you talking about? We are talking about auto flowering strains where you don't have to switch the light schedule for flowering. You got 20/4 from seed to harvest. And what would you really use your MH for two weeks? They are only in veg for 14 days then after that marks the transistion to flower. So lets see you first have to swap your hps bulb for you MH conversion bulb take apart reflector (like mine) for two weeks and then put the HPS back in after that? Sounds good for regular strains but not for the auto's

that sounds crazy you mean 20 hours on and 4 off.. And how could you veg for 2 weeks if you don't change the light hours..

see that doesnt make sense..and I wouldn't use the MH for just two weeks I would use it through out the whole grow I have the pics to prove it:-P

Yeah that greatness was done only with Metalhalides...Now what...lol:-P:leaf:

i am just learning about this verry intresting
Auto flowering cannabis seeds
Auto flowering cannabis is a cannabis plant that is not dependant on the light cycle to go into flowering you simply plant a seed and water it will grow under 24 hours light a day then start to flower when that particular strain is ready most from around 3 weeks to 5 weeks from planting then it will grow out its bud for a further 5 to 7 weeks depending on particular strain of auto so all you need to do is sit back and let it grow when you see flowers starting change the light bulb to a flowering bulb and wait then site back and enjoy a good smoke.

Well I'm glad to hear that. But you had to switch your timer back to 12/12 to get those buds and it took forever. You don't have to change the light schedule because the plant has an internal clock for flowering. That is why it is called an autoflowering plant. She flowers when she is ready not when we are ready for her to flower. Did you read the whole how to part? 80 days max from seed to harvest. No turning your lights back. And HPS can go all the way through.

so what about cloneing do you clone or always start from seed?

MoG sent me here to check out his van...


To clear up the issue at hand;

There are different species of marijuana...

Cannabis Sativa

Cannabis Indica

Cannabis Ruderalis





Ruderalis is an autoflowering plant that flowers early to mid summer, just recently advancements in its genetics have been established to help outdoor growers harvest early and avoid the fall search for blooming outdoor plants.


Ruderalis is commonly known as "ditch-weed, and schwag" and has a low THC content, it grows naturally in North America, Europe and Russia along streams and roadsides, hence the name "ditchweed."


I have never messed with them myself... But imagine what they'd grow like.

I wanted to stress that I haven't really looked into the Ruderalis cross breeds, and have never smoked any of them... They're relatively new to the scene.

Ummm... In the first post it says you can cover an 8x8 area with a 1000W... And you can get 3 oz per plant, and 20 plants in that area... And 4 pounds on a 1000Ws.


Is this just a complete guesstimate or is there some evidence to back up those claims...

As far as I know a 1000W will cover a 4x4... 5x5 max, and the best yield from a 1000W is around 2 pounds, one pound is average...

I use 600W, and average a pound per light, which is good...



On top of the speed factor, since you're starting from seed everytime, you'll have to wait for germination, then seedling stage, then juvenile stage, and when it finally matures it'll start to flower...

If you were doing this all in the same room, I'm pretty sure that keeping mothers of a non auto strain and cloneing them for a harvest every 45 days would be much faster and more perpetual...


I'm not sure how long an auto strain takes to finish, but 3 weeks from seedling to first start of flower... That makes it kinda long.

Unless it's only 4 or 5 weeks total flowering time...


I don't know, and am not hating at all, if those claims are true, it's incredibly impressive.


I haven't even seen pics of autoflowering buds... Hook me up.
