I totally agree, I really see no advantage to growing an auto, it makes less weight than a photo and takes just about as much time, you can go 12/12 from seed and get double the weight these autos produce in about the same time, maybe a week faster or slower depending on the strain. I really don't understand why people want to water down their genetics with a ruderalis. The only situation I can see is like northern Canada/ Alaska where they have 24 hours of sun during the days and even then I think a good light dep would be much bigger yield , and danker.
