Are there any recommendations for a light schedule for autoflowering?
I leave them at 24 hours. I start with the seedlings at 18000 Lux and increase it till the 4th week. After the 4th week I have all my lights at full power and the top buds have around 55.000 to 90.000 Lux.

How to manage grow light height with plants of different sizes?
My grow light is suspended (offset from plants) about 10” from the canapy of my two LST’ed plants but only about 6” from my control plant (no LST). Everyone seems happy, and I am not noticing any burns or lack of growth (unless too close can stunt?). Should I rethink the setup?

Less light for an auto? Maybe 12/12?
Been going with 18/6 for my cream autoflower from growers choice from Day 1. Now 5 weeks into flower I’m wondering if she would benefit from less light, like 12/12, as you would for a photo period plant. What do you think? Would she be happy flowering in some more dark period?

Veg and bloom switch on 600w led
I have a 600w full spectrum LED grow light that has switches for both bloom and veg. Growing autoflowers, how do i know when to turn on the bloom switch? Also how far away should a 600w led be away from the pot at germination, veg, and flower?
