It stresses the plant especially an auto flower and can stun the height of the plant . The positive would be higher yield, wider plant for your grow pace and more even canopy which makes SCROG and low stress training a lot easier.

Benefits far outweigh the negative. If you can give her longer time to recover and beg, it is a no brainer...

It’s a no brainer on photoperiod plants on autos I don’t because the veg period is very limited and they won’t have time to recover
