Hopefully I will get mine started at the week end..Will have to go 12\12 for the 1st 5 weeks,as I have a pheno in tent about 3 weeks into flowering so when done will bump up the hours to 14\10..16\8 & onto 18\6..will I lose much overall yield due to starting off 12\12??Any answers much appreciated guys
I think it might be a significant bit less as far as yield goes because the life span of an auto is so short. 5 weeks is 35 days which is the entire veg cycle of an auto and maybe even some of the early flowering. This is the time when your plant builds is structure for producing buds. If you go 12/12 from the start you will probably have very short/small plants. And small plants=small yield. I think you would be way better off just waiting until your photo plants are done so you can get your autos off to a good start.. Just my 2 cents bro. Good Luck Dude!

If you already have another plant in flowering ii would recommend to let her finish. changing the light schedule that many times could confuse your plant thats already flowering and cause her to hermie on you, you could do the auto flower for 12/12 in a good sized bucket or just wait? Good luck brotha

hey lucifder....how long did you let the one that you made hash with go? and how long for the other one? mine is 5 weeks and 3 days from breaking soil. she showed sex at 2 weeks. i'm thinking 10 to 11 weeks total
Same here right at the end of week two it slowed done and threw out her first couple of pistils, this is the first time I grow an auto and I almost feel like its growing a regular seed on a 12/12 schedule because from what everyone says plants still have around two weeks of vegging when you make the flip to flower, thus the end of the "stretch" but with that being said mine was around 6 weeks a few days before the 7th week. I think either george seeds or jack vault said it finishes around week 8 but me, I always let em ride out an extra week just to be sure I get a good couch lock effect that I really need for ailments. Another good tool is a microscope, check out the Color of the thc. Good luck brotha man.

hahaha That was the best of the plant! I was pretty stoned that the color of the hash being so similar to peanute butter had me gazing for a bit haha wish you guys could have a taste of this A x T hash. Here's the blue cheese I clearly have some more defoliation to do this girl is short, bushy and real leggy, even though I did LST she's still real busy looking, imagine if I didn't take down any leaves:shock:

I looked at my Alien X's today and the buds are really starting to fatten up. I'm around 3 weeks from start of flower and the flowers looked small and airy until a day or two ago. They are getting really fat, really fast. So if your looking at your plants and seeing some small buds, don't fear, they will get big and fat and full of trichomes.

Nice looking plant. I love the blue cheese. Do you always defoliate?
