I’ve done the tests and yield vs Elyria cost 18/6 is the sweet spot for my electric company - autos do better with some rest period ! They will grow and flower under 24 hrs but y?
Im just wanting to find the best way to get the biggest yield with my autos so any advice you got would be appreciated

Biggest yield comes from a number of things especially with autos light is only a part - again what light u using ? True watts? Keeping the plant healthy and happy with water and nutes if needed is a big part of yield - can’t make any mistakes with autos cuz there’s no time for recovery

I’m using a 1000w falecia light with a small blue and red led light. People have said from my photos my plants look healthy and happy! I’m still giving nutes but should I give water separately aswell?

They do look healthy so I would keep up the good work mayb lower the light a bit there’s a couple reasons the leaves pray or point up like that and lack light is one ?

@Edinburg how long does it take till you start to see improvements?
Well when I start to flower it's the only stuff I use, it was recommended by my hydro guy and works great, it's a bit expensive at $40 for a small bottle but it lasts a long time bc you use so little.

Wish I did not drown my other phone bc I have been here for years and had 100s of pics, but I used the stuff on this plant.

A lot of good feedback here.
My 2 cents worth: I did some autos last year, used 24:0 light:dark cycle.
They didn’t do great and by the time I was finishing up it was just a mess.

This year, I’m growing the same seeds, 18:6 light:dark, the plants look far less stressed.
I am using a different nutrient lone (Flora Nova now versus Fox Farms trio the first time).
I think the 6 hours lights out is a rest period that the plants appreciate. I can see them relax for a while after lights out, but are primed and ready for lights on in the “morning”.

@TomH thanks for this feedback that’s what I think I’m going to do as my plants have loads of colas but not forming into buds yet

@Edinburg you got anyway we can end to end Encryption? Where I can chat to you about it?? Atami Bloombastic is what my hydro guy suggested I use, a small bottle cost $40, bc I grow autoflowers you do not use the recommended dose bc you will fry them, I keep my grows as simple as possible, in veg I feed them Botanacare Pro grow 60ml per USgal and in 10 years never once burned a plant in veg, when I start to flower them I give a light flush check ph then add a bit of Atami waterd down I do this when the plant has topped off ie stopped growing vertical, autoflowers hate stress so I keep things as simple as possible, a small fan, 2 spotlights from home Depot, a $150 Viperspectra 600w 2 cycle light, a pH meter, and 2 nutes botanacare pro grow and Atami Bloombastic, this autoflower is called cherry fog ie cherry pie x the fog as you can see she completed her stretch and is in med hevey preflower now I want the flower to form structure after that I will start the Bloombastic and the flower will blow up, breeder says plant will take 90 days but the longer you run it the better it will be so I will leave in veg till all flower comes together then use the Atami to blow the flower up.plant popped on valintines day.
