Sup y'all just ordered meself 10 autoflower from Attitude to add to my Kush, Lapis Mountain Indica, White Widow and Cheese. But never having grown autoflower I am wondering if It would work well 12/12 all the way? Who has tried it? Lemme know.

I doubt you'd get much if anything under 12-12; autos are meant to flower under any light schedule, but considering their short lifespan, 12-12 would result in a negligible yield. I keep mine under 20-4 from seedling to harvest.

From what I have read all over the net is that they dont need 12/12 to flower. But I did grow a mutant Short Rider that did not flower until I put her in 12/12, for an autoflower that is weird. She was the first auto I grew also.

Now I am going to grow Bubblelicous Auto + Fem from Nirvana and Im gonna try 20/4 or 18/6, have not deceided yet.

So I'll just get a shit yeild eh? I was hoping to leave it in my flower box as it has way more room but if I wont get much green it might jus be better to keep em in veg. Or do a side by side comparison and put some plants in each box and jus see what happens. Cool thanks for ur input guys.

12/12 is not recommended for Auto's generally.. either use 16/8, 18/6, 24/0, or 22/2 anything over 16 hours of light basically.. Check the breeders website it should have a recommended photoperiod for the strain
