    Default Flowering autos alongside NONE autos

    Right I've got 1 more auto that is 2/3 weeks from finishing under a 600 watt hps light

    I also have two non autos outside that are very early in flower and i want to get these two inside now.

    Problem I have is that if I bring these two NONE autos indoors alongside my auto I'm going to have to set lighting timer to 12/12 and this will drastically reduce light hours that my auto has been getting as currently its on 18/6.

    Will this mess the auto up and make a huge difference in yields or even kill it?.

    Psi gotta get the two none plants in now as don't want them outside as days getting colder now.

    A possible solution would be to bring the photoperiods in & let them go back into veg whilst the Auto finishes & then flower the photos...

    Not sure how long revegging would take though as I'm an auto guy

    Yes mate i agree there's no doubt I'll be bringing lighting down to 12/12 as I don't want phenos (non autos) to re-veg lol, but I wondered how badly this could effect my auto by bringing lighting down to accommodate the two phenos (non autos).

    I'm will be in the same boat in about 4-6 weeks so I'll be following your progress. I have three auto seedlings I'm trying to align with 4 vegging clones. The autos will be moving from 24/0 to 12/12. Everyone says they are resiliant ao we'll see. Timing is everything I guess.

    Auto's really need 18/6 light minimum but I have cut lighting before to 12/12 with them. It slows growth down a bit, takes them a bit longer to finish up and lowers yield a bit.

    Good advice. I'll probably just stretch the photo periods out so they flower after the autos flower. That way I can blast both 24/0 without hindering yield.
