I was wondering this with Autos, if you crop the higher buds first can you leave the plants lower buds to get some much needed light and let them mature for longer like you can with a normal strain

I thought that as an Autos life is planned out, would they hit maturity to soon, if that makes sense?

Yes you can stagger the harvest. but don't forget to keep a close eye on the amber ratio. Don't want to let it go too far.

Imo I'd rather use those 3 weeks to grow new autos.

I didnt do a grow diary stupidly, Im using soil, Dutch Pro Grow a+b in veg and then Dutch Pro Bloom a+b Bloom plus a small dose of "Big Bud" every feed when she started flowering, lights on 20/4 (def the best ratio, tried 24/0 and 18/6 to no use really)

Been using Neillio 650w LED plus a 150w Red Spectrum UFO LED light during flowering, thought I'd add what I had to see the results,

Heres a few pics of her
