autoflower or 12 12 from seed

I am going to say yes.

I have not grown an auto strain.

But I have tried the 12/12 from seed

and what you get is usually worth fuck all.

Auto flowering strains will produce less but still more than you can usually pull off with the 12/12 from seed

my educated guess (key word *guess*) is that a autoflowering strain would produce more dues to the fact that a normal strain is not 'designed' to cope well under a 12/12 light scheme from germination

i saw a shwag plant growing near a bus stop out of season. It was tall, lanky, and in amongst some other weeds. Anyways I always been into bio and eco so i took a close look making not to alert to much attension. It had little white hairs, too bad it was unseasonably warm...it go frozen within the same week i found it. I bet that city dumps that don't use bulldozer frequ look preaty crazy round october.

I have some but they smell like shit is what I heard. So i'm going with a regular strain like northern lights or kali mist and doing the 12 12 for the smell reason

mine are still small after 2 weeks and definatly not ready to bloom and they are to small to have a smell i think although i have sniffed them a couple times

I planted my auto ak/bb on february 24, they have all shown sex and are starting to bud. I have some of them under 24/0 lighting and the rest on 12/12. The ones on 12/12 are growing larger, but a bit more stretch then the ones under 24/0. I have found that they yeild about the same under either 12/12 or 24/0 they just take a week or so more under the 12/12. I say use 12/12 18/6 or 20/4. No need to run the lights 24/0. Just my experiance.
