You can grow multiple strains and feed exactly the same with minimal to no nutrient deficiencies while hitting typical numbers you'd expect for ambient CO2, which means they are fed as well as oyu can feed them. Unless growing clones of 1 plant, most of these challenges are unavoidable when working with seeds. I think the greatest impediment is the preference to blame the plant when things don't go well. It's not that the formula is flawed, it's because the plant is picky. Too much inductive reasoning and blaming external sources. Proof is in the pudding. Either a formula works consistently or it does not. If it doesn't work well with minimal adjustments, the problem is the formula not the plants. "One challenge is that if you're going to switch to 12/12 for your photoperiod plants, then these autoflowers will get less light and that can mean less yield." -- This is not factual. Any competent grower of photoperiods would account for this change of operation hours. Switching from 18 hours requires 150% of the light over 12 hours (I go 16h to 12h, so it's only 133% more). Providing the same DLI over 12 hours will result in the sam yield as provided over 18hours. DLI is what matters. Hours of operation is only half the equation and insufficient alone to make such a statement. I run my lights at 75% over 16 hours and 100% over 12. this provides the same DLI. Technically, it might be 1% more DLI at 75% with a little better efficacy out of the diodes. Autoflowers would turn out just as they normally would, just as photoperiods yield fine under 12/12.
