Hi everyone.
I keep seeing people telling that auto-flowering plants are good for beginners, but maybe I'm missing the point.
Read that they're difficult to train (LST, HST, ScroG, etc.); they're picky and don't like much stress; their yield probably isn't up to par compared to a photo one of the same kind; they can be easily overfed; etc. etc. etc.
So...
.......if I can't train the plant,
.........can't top it or stress it too much,
.............have no control over the veg and flower periods...
..................what kind of valuable training am I getting in the end?
What can I say I learned after growing an auto that will help me grow a photoperiodic one?
Maybe I'm missing something as this will be my first (cannabis) grow.
Hopefully someone will prove me wrong, as I have a few auto seeds ready to go.
But since the cost for new seeds is not that high (no pun intended), I'm kind of considering using photoperiodic seeds instead.
