    Default Auto's 12/12 from seed?

    As the title says.. Is it worth it? not looking for big yield as such looking for quick end product, thanks.

    an auto will finish the same time weather its 12/12 or not as its not a photosensitive plant but starts to flower by age and maturity...
    but grab yourself a few lowryders or a 60 day wonder and you wont get much quicker than that...
    Revolution is more than sound

    autos flower on any light cycle!! most people go for 20/4 or 18/6. 12/12 will just mean you get less yield. if you really wanna go 12/12 you will need to get some photoperiod seeds/cutting but then tey even wont produce flowers from seed either.

    your autos wont flower until day 14-21 and most end up going over what it says on the packaging

    you wont get a quick end product from either unless you chop early, which will lead to lame bud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Thanks for the quick responses, its best to go indica photoperiod tho correct? i have 'medical seeds - no name' because apperently its really good for insomnia because i suffer so much lack of sleep following a car crash few years back and am always in constant pain.. nothing the doctors gives me works.. think that would go alright 12/12 from seed? grower states 'This variety has a Sativa structure but, actually it is not a long-flowering plant. ' thanks again.

    i know what your sayin dr green, but i think this is his 1st grow i dont think there are any other plants.

    @redbeats if you want a decent yield go 24/0 until you see bud sites forming or even pistils. then switch to 20/4 or 18/6

    check out herbies or other seedbanks and look at short flower period plants. of its autos u want, go with what eyes wide shut said and get a 60 day wonder etc.

    mate your gonna need that extraction running 24 hours a day, regardless if your on 12/12. you need the air changes and circulation (fans) running all the time. this will stop any smells escaping, reduce heat and humidity build up. why cant you run the extraction?? if its noise your worried about ave a read around the forum. thers a few solutions or alternative fans suggested in threads. look here https://www.thctalk.com/cannabis-foru...ign-and-Setups

    search and yee shall find, springs to mind mate. quicker than waiting on answers

    The Novice Section is dynamite dude - have a read!
    Also have a look at the DIY section for some better ideas on ventilation, there's bound to be something there to suit your needs.
