18/6 then 12/12.......there is no other. Sometimes if you have a plant with heavy Sativa genetics, you can go to 11/13 to help them finish more decisively and prevent continual re-flowering at the end (last 2-3 weeks).

Once your happy with the plant size in vegetation, you should just flip straight to 12/12. That’s the most common practice for flowering.

Low Humidity and high temp or high humidity and low temp?
Do you think it’s better lower temp and higher humidity (like 27 degrees c and 80 % humidity) or higher temp and lower humidity (like 29 degrees c and 60 % humidity)? I’m just waiting for the humidifier but in the meanwhile I have to fix somehow. Thanks!

Can you make an Auto flower by changing the light schedule?
Ok, before everyone jumps on this with the obvious answer - I understand that you don’t NEED to change the lighting for an auto to flower, but my question is can you, if you wanted to, flip an auto to flower by changing the light schedule to 12/12?
