As such, it is safe to say that autoflowering cannabis can thrive under 24-hours of lighting.''

    This debate has already been had and I'll stick to what I said, no need for 24/0 and 12/12 is just fine.

    Not wanting an argument over it but everywhere Ive read about autos is more light the better. Not saying they wont grow under a 12/12 schedule, its just not optimal.

    That's fine mate, I prefer to stick to the science of it because some people will write any old shite and call it "optimal".

    Firstly the forum doesn't allow external links for your future reference.

    Secondly, everyone in this thread has been polite, there is no need to start insulting others who may not share the same view as you.

    This forum is all about positivity and sharing information with like-minded people + whack in some banter too..it's a friendly place with friendly members, really no need to imply anyone is 'writing any old shite' just because you have a differing opinion.

    Your science is flawed mate, many people do not realise that cannabis is a C3 plant. C3 plants do not need a dark period therefore the Circadian rhythm doesn't apply in the same sense....

    I'm not going to argue that you can flower autos on a 12/12 cycle as you can.... just saying it isn't the best light cycle available

    Without wishing to blow my own trumpet, I have, for many years, looked at the life cycle of auto plants & have had great success in growing them too by applying the things I have learned. Loki & myself made sure that we were the first forum advocating topping autos, as long as it was in the correct place - other forums, at the time, were saying it would reduce the yield.... now they copy us...

    Trust me. I do not write any old shite & call it 'optimal'!

    It wasn't implied toward Kurdt, don't see why you've taken offence on his behalf?

    It isn't my science either, "mate".

    I didn't say you did. Off your high horse buddy.

    I'm not going to argue with you IanBeal so expect no other replies from me in this thread, but it's quite obvious you were having a crack at a few of us here, if you wish to retract that, then fair play, but telling a highly respect staff member to 'get off his high horse' when he's simply sharing an opinion isn't the best way to go around this community, I'll tell you that now.
