12/12 on auto flowers the last 2 weeks

[biggerbud420]

so i got 2 tents going i got 5 autoflowers in my 4x4 and 2 photos in my 2x4 . the 3 zkittles of my auto flower will mature before the other 2 tangies my photos will be on 12/12 by the time my zkittles mature . what would happen when the times come if i moved the photos in the 4x4 tent with the tangie autos .how bad would changing the lights to 12/12 the last week or two of the autos life so i could dry the zkittles in the 2x4 tent ? how bad would it hurt the autos to be on 12/12 for a week or 2

I wouldn't worry about it if your autos are near harvest. It may reduce yield a tiny amount but I wouldn't stress over it

i would think it would be around week 7 or 8 of the 2 tangies that the zkittles would be ready but i could get lucky and the zkittles take a lil longer to ripen and they all be ready lol

There are some auto strains that benefit from short light cycles as I understand it.
I don't know which, but I have also read those shorter light cycles help with some autos that are turning too slow.

I was just saying that it is not a unknown technique to shorten light with autos.
Although in most cases it is not necessary from what I have read , seems that some adjust lights just like with photos .
It is in the plants DNA to respond to light .

My last two autos finished under 12/12. One was 12/12 after week four. Other was 12/12 for last 3-4 weeks or so. No issues. Toofless Alien and Double Grape x CDLC x Mango Smile.
