I saw few people switch to 12/12 until the plant start flo and then, go back to 18/6 and the plant stay in flo. Since it's an auto, it doesn't turn back in veg but may produce more because receiving more light than a photo plant that is on 12/12
I'm fairly new at auto's too but I can't afford to run them through flower with my 1000w hps running. I run them under t5 fluorescent until they flip then 12/12 under hps. The ones I've got going now I had to flip after 7 & 8 weeks they hadn't flipped on their own yet. Moshman or Edinburgh would be the one's to talk to,they have more experience with them
+1 I’ve ran all different ways and 18/6 seems to be the best balance IMO, and most won’t handle the same light intensity , however some will. I’ve found auto’s all over the place , never consistent, every plant different, They have there place for sure and I’ll prolly run some to fill in gaps
