simply no veg is the difference. flowering time of strain varies but you can harvest a little more frequently due to lack of veg time.

I only grow with the 12/12 cycle. I try to stay away from autos but i have grown some freebee's. As long as you give them sufficient light and nutes there wont be a big difference. My last auto i grew was a nyc diesel auto. Trying to find the pictures, they are somewhere on this site. Anyways, it got 43" tall and harvest 73g dried from her. Reason i stay away from them is potency. At least from my experience my photoperoid plants come out more potent even under 12/12 from seed. I have only ran 6 or 7 autos so i cant say for sure.

Using PromixBX w/25%perlite added (making it HP pertty much) 4gal pots MG 7-7-7 african violet(base/micro) molasses GH FloraBloom and Superthrive gets me 70g-100g per plant dried under 12/12 using 600w hps 200w of cfls.





edit: had to take a quick pic.

I have a 12/12 auto going right now 25 days in flower.
Thats awesome i was wondering cuz I have a bagseed 3 weeks into flower and I started one of my blue mystic autos in a party cuz under my 250w HPS I wanted to try and see if it could grow under 12/12. This thread is awesome and will support my test to try and grow under it. Do you have any pictures of it?

Added thought. I would not recommend breeding using the 12/12 cycle or cloning. once i start crossbreeding i will have a veg room for sure. U can breed under 12/12 but personally i think it can degrade the genetics.

Dude that's awesome, I'm gunna keep going on my 12/12 blue mystic auto from seed than I was about to make a lil veg box for it and got to 18/6 but I'll try 12/12 and see what happens. Ya I've read they're not as potent as normal photos but still pretty good. Awesome picture man. Thanks for in the info in doing this didn't think people did this ans I can't believe I didn't ever see this thread b4 haha. Do they grow slower under 12/12? Cuz my blue mystic auto is 17 days old and still pretty small ill post a pic of it later once I'm off work.

That makes sense I won't be breeding just growing, im on my first grow it's unknown and it's finally starting to show some bud sites so I'm stoked on that.

GHS kalashnikova shes at day 76. Ill harvest her around day 95-100. This is the second kalashnikova i have grown, its a great strain. Potency im guessing 10%-12% THC Not the strongest strain so, personally i would not recommend it.
