you wont need diffrent rooms 2 veg or flour beacuse they are autoflowering witch means they start flouring whever they get 10 hours of light or 24.

You only need two rooms if you plan on starting more before those are finished. For your photoperiod you can do 24, 20/4, or 18/6 for vegging, your choice - but flowering is 12/12.
Good luck!

I've grown autos and see no reason not to give them 24 hr light. Just make sure they are all autoflowers because I don't recognize some you have mentioned.

18/6 start to finish autos dont veg do they, or at least only need one light cycle start to finish, flowering is not 12/12 for autos they will flower under almost any cycle wont they, this is confusing...You only need two rooms if you plan on starting more before those are finished. For your photoperiod you can do 24, 20/4, or 18/6 for vegging, your choice - but flowering is 12/12.

I was thinking they still needed the appropriate light cycle as any other strain to not be stressed, but I have not grown these myself yet, so if I was wrong, I appoligize for making it more confusing.
Please correct me if I am mistaken ...
I was under the assumption that autoflowering meant that the plant will start it's flowering phase
after a fixed amount of time rather then waiting to be triggered by 12 hours of light. So you could
keep a plant under 18/6 and still have it flower just fine. I think generally you don't want to go much
higher then 18 hours of light because many important things happen inside the plant during the dark.
Darkness is almost as important as light...

No problem you know a lot more about cultivation than me!I was thinking they still needed the appropriate light cycle as any other strain to not be stressed, but I have not grown these myself yet, so if I was wrong, I appoligize for making it more confusing.

I think 18/6, cant remember exactly y but a measure of lights off is good for the a/f's growth/production I have heard many say its FTW and if you have a digital ballast 18/6 will save £££?
If any use +Rep me
