low ryder #2 3500k and 6500k ?

im sure i read before ideal instead of having 6500k bulbs then switching on flower as its autoflower to have a mix? 3 my "spare" 6500k bulbs dont even work so ive got 2 6500k and 1 3500k should i keep that throughout?

the 3500k is useless because you need either 2500k or 6500k, so a lot of thw wattage isn't being used by the plant.
autoflower strains still grow better when you give them flowering conditions (like 12/12 or flower nutes or better suited lights etc..) during flowering, even though there's no specific time to switch over. switch the light when the plant starts to show signs of flowering.
 
I do have veg and grow nutes just worried about dropping light to 12/12 when read from joint doctor ideal conditions 18/6 throughout

i'm not sure abuot that actually, and i've never grown an auto, a lot of people say you can give as much light as you want because light cycle is irrelevant to an auto. so some give 24/0 or 20/4 throughout, whereas others say you should still stick with 12/12.
you should just do both in two grows and see for yourself because it's the only way.
 
Maybe ill try 18/6 throughout then try going down 12/12 flower next seeing as only 8 weeks ive never grown autos either so new for me going to start journal hopefully pick up some help along way hoping to get 14 min g per plant have heard alot of 25-35g per plant grows
