12-12 schedule will fuck up your autoflower yield. They need 18hours of light minimum for the best results. Also , i’m speaking out of experience here : Your photoperiod will cast a shadow over your auto’s giving them even less light.

I have done it with no problems. I kept my photoperiods in veg the entire time. I was running @ 18-6 with temps @ 74-78f and rh @ 48-50% when my autos where in flower.

It can be done but the autoflower will suffer lower yields once you switch to a flowering light schedule (12-12) You could plan it where you grow the auto first, then plant the photo period toward the end of the autoflowers life so that the 24hr veg light sched. won’t effect the autoflowers yield. You could technically even veg the photoperiod during the entire autoflowers life and once you harvest the auto switch the photo period to the flowering light schedule. You’ll end up with one beast of a photo period if you let it veg for that long but it may be worth it!
