Well dont knock all autos just cuz one is crazy for your set up!

There are plenty of autos out on the market right now that dont grow so wild and big. You can also train autos to help with yeild and size with some LST.

How big is your grow area? You may have also run into a pheno that happens to be on the larger side also so it just may come down to genetics. 8

I have my set up on a timmer for 18/6. I dont start any higher or lower just 18/6 the entire grow. Forget the 12/12 (which you CAN do but from what I see 18/6 is generally the best) and just let it go on a "photo veg" cycle the whole grow. This is also cool because if you start a photo grow with autos by the time you harvest the autos, the photos are ready to flip! Its a cool way (I think) to supplament a photo grow.

Try, Auto Seeds: Candy Kush Auto. That's supposed to only grow to 60cm and still yield some tasty nugs. Think about 120g a plant. Maybe more. And it's done by 2.5 months.

Just saw your other post with all the info and pics lol

My tent is 24"x24"x49" with a 300w LED. You can grow in yours just get a different strain... OR take it as a learning experiance. The only way anyone ever learns on this planet is when they make mistakes and correct them. Dont be down or mad. It sucks yeah but now you know for next time! You are already one step closer to rockin that strain! Do some LST next run or run a SCROG. You will get it eventualy man it takes time. Im only a few grows in myself but the more i grow and try the better it gets!!!

My green crack auto with a little LST is only 60 cm tall (2ft) and from looks of it so far should easily hit an oz .. my first encounter with an auto and I love it , I ran 20/4 from start and now it's flowering I've added extra light and dropped to 18/6 ..

I am fairly new to this, started my first grow in March, and started with a few autos and a few bag seeds. I did not do so well, but now I have a perpetual grow and do 1-2 autos every 2-3 weeks along with photos to keep something flowering at all times. 18/6 seems to be working the best.

Thats correct , until u flip for the photos, or unless you wanna veg a photo 4 12 weeks
most breeders say there autos will finish , in so many days, but if u wanna grow em well, they always take longer, especially if you get the veg stage of autos right (which is most important)...........besides , unless u got the room, it only detracts from the end result
