Yes you will get bud quicker.

When flowering its recommended 24/0 or 18/6 or anything in between, So 18 hours of light or more everyday.

Yes they are generally smaller, Dwarf plants being the smallest. And going about 10 inches or so.

I have grown autos several times and always used 24/7 light. But when you see flowering begin, go to mostly 2700k light and switch to bloom nutes. There are some auto strains that grow to 4 ft.

Have a look there, i have grown la diva (blueberry x diavolo) and roadrunner by dinafem also a lowryder2 some time ago.
Roadrunner i would highly reccomend it has the fruitest smell and taste you can imagine! For my next autos round im doing auto AK47 and auto hindu kush.

Don't believe what the seedbanks say on harvest time. That's based on optimal conditions so add a couple weeks. I grew White Dwarf which was good, but they said ten weeks seed to harvest and it was 12. They aren't worth the effort for the small yield IMO.

Yup, what Illegal said. I have a AK still flowering. It started 3 months ago. Could be that i switched it over to 12/12 with the rest of my strains. But I already clipped my WW and BB, so def keep em under 18/6 or 20/4. Good luck
