Short Rider Light Schedule

I'be got a short rider plant that's about 6 weeks old now, 14 inches tall. I switched it to 12/12 a week ago and it's now got some preflowers on it. Should I switch the light back up to 24/0 or 20/4, or leave it at 12/12? I expected to be close to harvest time by now, but I think I was just under feeding for too long. Any advice?

Id just keep them on anything from 18/4-24/0... No need to go 12/12 with autos...

I just wasn't sure if it it was actually showing its auto trait, or that me putting into 12/12 made it flower. The last one of these I had started flowering right at 4 weeks. You think it will continue to flower if I turn the lights back up?

If it's a real auto it should. I've been sticking up for nirvana autoflowers, but it seems like a few people have been having trouble with them not flowering... All I can say is that you can try 18/6 to see if they keep flowering, or just keep them at 12/12... Kind of hit or miss... No way to really tell other than observing.

I'll try that. The worst that could happen is that it stop flowering and I have to change it back to 12/12. No big deal

That sucks... im growing the same thing and i hope that doesnt happen to me...
