Can I grow an Auto with a Photoperiod?

eurorackstarted grow question a year ago

Thinking of growing a Skunk #1 Auto with a Photoperiod Fem Diet Durban, guessing I should start at 18/6 then drop to 12/12 when I want the Photoperiod to start budding? Thanks

Yeah man go for it, I ran a gorilla Zkittles auto with my last photo run and it just chugged along in the corner and was a nice little bonus smoke , maybe 4 oz or something. I would usually pull around 10 oz per auto so the weight was way down from a 18-6 light schedule . Short answer is yes you can chuck autos in with photos and they will adapt to whatever light schedules you run for the photos

if the light is powerful enough to give 35-40 dli over 12 hours, then you should see no signficant difference in outcome with your autoflower.

I did like this 45 days later photo I threw the plants into the ground and took them to 12/12 after 45 days. so my auto plant was on its own light cycle for 90 days and the harvest was satisfactory. good luck.

Fan vs Fanless LEDs How effective are heatsink LEDs? I'm not sure if I should go with fanless (like Mars Hydro SP150) or with a fan (Mars Pro II Epistar 120). I struggle with heat, when the tent is closed it gets to 29-30 degrees with humidifier in full swing (HID lights) and I want to close it soon

Leaves "praying" after lowering the lamp I am in week 4th of flowering Laughing Buddha, 220W LED ~60cm from tops. Today I have lowered the lamp and the leaves started "praying", on one (higher) plant the other, mostly-indica Holy Punch seems unaffected. I am curious, is there too much light or sweet spot and it's good?

Switching light schedule for an auto and Phototype!I'am growing together an auto and a phototype with 20/4 light circle. For my phototype is about time to change light schedule for flowering, will my auto be badly impacted by switching to a 12/12 light? Or should I move every day (same place but no light) the photo for the night?

Will the change from indoors to out trip my plants into flowering?Hi, Guys, I plan to move my plants outdoors next week. Will the change in the light schedule trip them from veg to flower? I really don't want this. They're currently @ 3 weeks on 18hrs indoors and outdoors they'll be getting 11hrs direct sunlight. Also, they're photo's not autos

If I move 3wk old S.Diesel & Critical from 18hrs💡indoors to outdoors where they'll get +/-11hrs direct🌞. Is there still a risk of them going into flower even though they're still babies? I really don't want this to happen. They'll be in the woods so no chance to add extra light

Autoflower light schedule Soon rolling into veg for my first auto grow. Currently on an 18/6 light schedule using Mars Hyrdo II 700w . Don’t have any problems with temp/humidity inside tent. Once you notice the buds starting to flower do you switch to 12/12 or just keep plugging away with 18/6?

Does anyone have experience with colas that have been severely light deprived, yet still have trichs?My ghost nug grew up on the side of the tent blocked from light. She has trichs, looks super light yellow (see pics). My question is, wouldn't this be desirable? Less chlorophyll to wait on before smoking? Has anyone tried to maybe light deprive parts of their colas?

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?
