I'm wondering if it's possible or even a good idea to start to finish a photo in 4 months?....if so are the yields different than a 3 month auto?....I've only done autos but wanting lil bigger yield but not wait for 6 months..

Easily. 1 month veg, or longer for faster flowering strains.
I just did one with a month veg, and finished 11 weeks after the flip to 12/12.
Avoid sativa dominant strains if you are looking for speed.

How much was your yield after 4 months?

It should have been better. Would have used a larger pot but i had 2 in my 2x2 tent to start, and one didnt make it. If i had planned on just one i would have vegged longer in a bigger pot and still been done in less than 4 months.
So I take it that it's much better to run a photo than an auto for several reasons?..I'm getting a ounce if I'm lucky on autos

Early mistakes arent as damaging with photo's. You have time to correct the problem, and flip the lights later.
I have no real experience with auto's so i couldnt tell you which is better.
I may run one outdoors this summer just because it will finish before i get to shitty fall weather.

Really not a great yield as far as grams per watt. 200w of led for less than 100grams isnt great haul.
First run in the new tent with the new light so hopefully i can dial it in better
Shit man I'm totally lost on my yields running 3 lights now so hope I can get something over a ounce

Just make sure you give em time to fatten up. I trained in a microgrow so i had alittle practice. They gain a lot of weight at the end.
My mini fridge is something like 16" w by 16" L by 28 tall and i averaged about an ounce.
