best light schedule for autos??

Well I.guess the title says it all gonna try a few autos just wondering the best lighting schedule for them was thinking just a normal 12/12. Any suggestions????

Hi tnm187, With Autos i believe the general consensus is the More Light the better, I myself am trying 12/12 from seed with some Autos as we speak(type) but I wouldn't say this was the norm.. 24/0 is what a lot of peeps go with for Autos..and then you have 18/6 and 16/8 which is what my BBK have bean under since day1.. I like(normally) to give all my Plants a Rest period.. hope this is of some Help.. btw which Strain was you thinking of doing...?

Those are looking nice.. I'm not to sure on what strain I'm gonna go with. Any suggestions on a good strain

Well I done a few Autos, but D.P. Blackberry Kush is my Favourite right now, But tbh its down to what You like in a smoke and idk? your setup.. I mean some Autos can grow BIG, so if you are limited on space then they would be the ones to avoid.. in the UK Cheese and Blues seem to be the Peoples choice, but I tend to like Fruity Flavours.. Bomb Seeds do some Nice Strains and Dutch Passion.. also depends on your budget and growing skill(some beans are expensive, and can be picky about conditions and nutrients) So I would think about what kinda High you like, what kinda Flavours you like and then start looking for the biggest yielding and most forgiving strain.. might make things a little easier 1st time round..

It's really just up to you. People do every which one. Everyone has a different opinion on light schedule. Some do 24/0, 20/4 18/6 but 12/12 would most likely hurt your yield. I usually do 20/4 to atleasts give them a four hour break.

LoL! Your right though, and this had crossed my mind..who knows.. to be expected really I suppose I mean, We are all space-heads... So I can't see breeders being any different(space-heads).. hence some of the mad names for some strains.. mind some just try and speak to you in terms of I'm the "Best" I did some Cream of the Crop-Cash Cropper I think it was.. pretty unimpressed compared to some other Autos I've done.. could of bean down to Me(as the grower I know) But all 3 outta sealed packet looked lame and plants turned out pretty lame.. Yield, taste.. I will have to run again though.. I always like to run a strain at least twice.. even them rubbish KC45's got 2-3 runs...are really are crap!

Everyone keeps telling me that about the cash crop. I have some just sitting in the drawer. They keep getting pushed further back on my list lol. I'll definitely have to try those blackberry kush though!
