I know they say light schedule really doesn't...

I know they say light schedule really doesn't matter with these autos, but would switching these ladies to 12/12 help with my bud production?

Buds. Not fattening

Hello Friend! Although it is useful to change the cycle to 12/12 to force the flowering, it will not necessarily make the plant fatter, some people give 20 hours of light in order for the plant to feed well, however I believe that your plant is going deluxe! Have some patience and as you say you will have 8-9 weeks of flowering. As advice I would reduce the amount of fertilizers a little, I think you have many in your irrigation. Sometimes, less is more. Success in your growth bro :)

Actually it will not mate. Only thing that could help is the amount of light, I mean lumens. Only them can asure more and big production in autos, talking about lights of course.

No it will not brother, actually your buds will keep grow but it will reduce the yield.

Hi there friend, one of the biggest advantages of the autos is not having to change the schedule, so you can make a perpetual grow with one tent running one light schedule. In theory it will reduce the yield compare to an auto receiving more light. Some autos are not completely stable and sometimes they do not Autoflower, so in this case you flip the light schedule. As others have said EC 4 is very high specially for an autoflower that do not require much fertilising. Cheers

No it won’t if reducing the hours of light. But I would say to not exceed 1000ppm / 2.0mS otherwise it can reduce your yield and buds won’t fatten up properly.

I agree with Athos on this one. These plants sometimes need help flipping into flower but once they are flowering and because it has such a short flowering period they really need to get as many hours of intense light as possible

Your plants already started to flowering so switching to 12/12 is not help you to fatten your buds.. it would be nice maybe you flush and give them a proper nute solution..

Short answer; No it will not, actually it might do the opposite, the more light hours, the more energy it can produce to flower. Now what will help if correcting a few issues. It seems you have a bit of over watering going on. Secondly your pH is consistently kind of low, get it to 6.5 to 6.8 and it might help too
