I have recently moved to Spain and im going to be doing outdoor grows all my plants are currently in the first week after germination and have all sprouted nicely and look healthy. I have the following strains on (AUTOS) Pineapple punch, bio diesel mass, Blue Himalaya diesel, Ultra lemon haze, L.A Diva, Super cali haze, AK auto. (12/12) Strawberry blue, Critical +, Utopia haze, Pretty lights, jack diesel, Black russian, Blue dream and grapefruit.
I have a room set up for vegging the plants and turning them i just want to know if i will get a lot better yields if i veg the 12/12 for a long time and then put them out once they are turned or just off the autos? if anyone has done any of these strains before outdoors any advice would be much appreciated!!
Cheers Guzz!

You will yield better off non auto's. Why would you start to flower then put them outside? If the light outside is longer than 12 hours, they will revert to veg.
Just put the seeds out and let them grow, they will flower when time is right.
Can't be much more help cause I don't know what the days are like in Spain.

Without being a dick can you explain this comment?? as 99% of the growers i have talked to over here have recommended the autos?? like i've said this is all a learning process for me only ever done indoor before. just wanted some advice not abuse not what i expected from smokers at all!! Thanks for the people with proper advice like i said its appreciated. Guzz

I don't know where people come up with this bullshit about revegging. I stick plants outside every 30 days from March 1st till September. I have a perpetual harvest. I never have a problem with them revegging. Once they get put outside they love it. Nothing beats sunshine and fresh air as long as the bugs leave you alone. This is my 3rd year of doing this. I put my plants out a little early this year cause the weather was so nice. First harvest is today !!!!!! :bigjoint:

autos flower at any photo period. auto strains take 2months-2 1/2months from seed to get a harvest. you can peg around 20-35grams each plant after dry if taken care of properlly. i have personally seen best results with putting an auto flower seed in a 2-3 gallon bucket and on 18/6 or 20/4 light sched. 12/12 hurts yeilds, the auto flower plant does not need to be told when to flower it does so by age not light sched. so even under 24hr it will bud.

so to answer your question, dont veg 12/12 put them atleast 18/6 then throw them outside. it wont hurt them, does not matter on light sched. (dont go below 12hr tho..)

Man I'm just sayin if you've got autos and are concerned about yield take advantage of both. Veg regs as long as you can you'll be pullin autos before you know it. I may be missing something but 12/12 outdoors seems like a waste of resources.

Why hello there good friend, very nice thread here. I am glad you have chosen to grow cannabis, however not so glad you are growing autos in spain where you can grow a much better none auto strain. Ya see my good fellow when a plant sends it's pollen out to make news seeds in other plants it does not discriminate between autos and not autos. So lets say I was Jorge Cervantes and I was growing some CBD rich strains for seed and you your Auto Pollen pollenated his seeds, well then what happens is his 12/12 strain is now part Auto which means his crop is now Garbage. Autos are intended for parts of the world with short growing seasons, where as in spain you have a awesome growing season. So why wouldn't you spend your hard earned money on a plant that will yield a half pund or more??? Not a 35 or 40 grams, simply not worth the effort.

I I wasn't too much of a dick for your highly sensitive feelings.

Peace

HaHa fair enough i wasn't on about the pollination i meant why are the spaniards telling me to do auto's?? and surely only a monkey would get 25-40g off any plant?? i did autos indoor back in england (think different and blue mammoth) and averaged 4 oz a plant so surely i would get more outdoors?? and thanks to every1 else who has helped i'll let you know how they all do! cheers guzz
