So my Wedding Cake auto went exactly 74 days (so 10.5 wks) My Mac 1 auto went 80 days so a full 10 weeks and I have 2 still going, one approaching 88 days (12 weeks) and one approaching 90 days so going to go to 13 weeks with her. Running a 20/4 light schedule. I guess it depends on the circumstances, genetics, feed, training etc. that may impact the time, but I would agree they will all usually go over what they state unless it is a perfect grow.

I was thinking about doing 4 different auto strains so does it help to have the same strain?

it helps if they are but they can and usualy stretch differently so no it doesn't really matter i do mixed strains and just keep training them and hope for the best im yet to have an auto out grow the height of one of my tents. That would be a good problem to have.

As long as you know some background on the 4. I would do it again, but make sure of sizes so you have everything somewhat closer. I had 2 that stayed fairly short, 1 that went bushy and taller, and 1 that stayed slightly bushy but super thick in the middle. The issue was keeping a similar lighting equal on the canopy of all. I usually rotate my plants twice a day, just turn them under the light like 1/3 rotation each time, once in the a.m. and then again before I call it a night. It was a daily task with 4 different ones.
