Flowering auto assassin- change to 12/12 lighting?

If an auto flowering strain, such as auto assassin, is switched to 12/12 lighting, what would be the effects? Is it possible to do this and still get a decent harvest? Will this slow down the flowering or speed it up, or have no effect since it is autoflowering?

Need some input

12/12 will probably make no difference in the flowering timing and with most autos, they finish by age.....and YES it will reduce yeild. That being said, I typically veg my autos under T5 24/0...the move them to an HPS system on 12/12 or 14/10 to conserve elec. My prettiest and donkey dick colas (from lowryder 2) were actually finished outside the last 4 weeks.....

I like to finish my autos under 12/12 the buds seem to mature faster, last few weeks anyways. I also don't see any adverse affects on yeild ither.

My last auto assasin i finished under 12/12 i got 14.4 dry grams from a stick. Thing was almost 12" tall, lol.

my indoor aa grow is set up on a table in an alcove area with the okay of my family- no tent etc. I do have a black curtin set up that I can pull across to keep the light hidden somewhat. So it's not airtight by any means- so does it still need a little fan for airflow? My hunch is that it's not really necessary any opinions?
