AUTOFLOWER question

can you grow your auto flowers in 12\12 light from day 1? or does it have to be 24/7 no matter wah

i think its 12/12

you can grow it 12/12 but your yeild will hurt in the end cause you only got like 3 weeks of veg so you want to get it as big as you can (seeing there already short plants already)

you can grow autos on a 4/20 if you want its not gonna be pritty the ideal lighting is 18/6 for the highest yeild

id go with wot lowrider said mate 18/6, i done a auto blueberry on 18/6 and was very pleased with the outcome

yea i have some ak47nbluebberrry auto they ssound so tasty

I've read from a number of sources that the best lighting for autoflowering plants is 4/20, the number can't be a coincidence. But with that said, I did 24 hours during the first 3 weeks after I germinated and then flipped to 20/4 until it was time to flower my clones and then went to 12/12. I don't have another grow with the autoflowerers to say which is better but with that said 4/20 then 12/12 still produced happy plants.

From what I understand about autoflowering strains is that they will flower when they're ready regardless of how much light they get. The only thing that will slow their flowering is stress which I know from experience after snapping one of my plants in half during a failed LST attempt. The stress from that slowed the flowering time down by 4 weeks, but it was a SEVERE amount of stress. After the plant recovered it grew like it had been topped and now has two colas so it's all good.

Actually 24/7 is the ideal lighting for maximum yeild.

actually everywere ive read they say that the ideal lighting for autos is 18/6 if you have expirienced diff thats cool but facts are facts the only other ideal lighting was a 20/4 that ive read but never a constant 24........... i wish i could tell you i know this from expirience but my auto were defective from factory lol and grew about 40 inches tall

I have done this by experience and your yeild is better doing 24/7

let me ask you somthing my last grow i had 5 out of 5 males so i wanna try to avoid this this time should i stat the plants on a 12/12 and then switch after they have sexed or should i start on a 18/6 wait till they get an ok size switch to a 12/12 then back to a 18/6........

i'm new to this autoflowering bizzzzz....it really sounds interesting and worth while considering i just lost ALL my clones whats the best place to order autoflower seeds? and is the output similar at all per wattage? are the buds dank like normal? i think this would be a good thing for me to start since i have to wait on more clones and then veg em while auto's are growing...i'm guessing it takes like 11-13 weeks from seed? any and all answers would be helpful...

autos usually grow to be small around 20 inches give or take but they only take 8 weeks form seed to harvest , altho your yeild are not as big the bud is just as good and comes quickier
