Gotcha I'll take that in, might up the anti a little on the dimmer say in 2 weeks, and yea 18/6 seems good or even 20/4 but I'd never do 24/7 even as a beginner I know for a fact 24/7 light schedule justification is just convoluted lmao

Autos go a lot faster than photos will start flowering at week 3-4 in most cases

I hear you. Only do because of limited time and space. My younger brother does all the photos and fun to work with him on thoseI don’t grow autos because they are useless to me. Listen to dr auto

wanna keep me posted on the topping. Mixed reviews on it so I don’t top mine. May slow it down a little but keep me updated

From what I have done to a couple of auto's.. I think you should be fine with topping before pistils are showing. Soon as I've seen pistils.. a week to 9 days later it stretched & started flowering. I have an auto going now under 24/7 light... 3 weeks into flowering and she is stacking up nice.
SF2000 15" from the top... because the light isn't going up anymore.
To answer the OP tho. With auto's from now on (Started last round) I'm hanging the light 12" from the roof on 40% until she pops out of the soil. Then dropping light to 18" and going up to 60%. Once I see pistils 100% power maintaining 16-18".
Check out my thread in the link below. I documented cloning an auto. Hope what I was able to share helps.
