New Grower do you only grow autos?

[philipd]

I grow a photoperiod plant once then for speed chose autos and was so impressed never looked back. Am interested in who here only grow autos or photo fans. I have never mixed but always liked the idea of veging the photo 60 days till an autos done then flower the photo

I grow photoperiod plants also. Autos are my fav though, they just dont have the flavs. I always 12/12 my photos when they are one foot tall so that they will finish at 3 feet tall. If you flower them at 2 feet tall they will finish at 6 feet tall, and so on. I don't know what point the scale stops at.

I'm not sure what you're asking exactly. Are you asking if people have grown both together? If so, yes. That idea can work but you can never just say that the autos would be done in 60 days. For one, they take longer than that most of the time and can definitely be pushed further on purpose. So it would be hard to line up exactly when to do it. But..if you enough space go for it. Keep in mind the photo will double or triple in size when you flip the lights to 12/12.

If you're asking if any of us only grow one or the other, that answer is also yes. Hope this helps.

I grow both. Variety is the spice of life

More often than not i'll chuck the auto's in the 12/12 tent when they are getting close to finish. I don't fret too much over it. If i am doing an all auto run i'll do 20/4 the whole way.

What you have on the go sort of dictates what you can do with each other.

Would droping an auto till a 12 12 during flower stunt it. Yeah ashcream I love the 6ft trees. My landlord inspects every 3 months since I moved so my time always limited and squid was meaning 60 as a baseline number but haha the question was abit open

Photos give me both variety and weight at harvest. They just take so freakin' long (outdoor grows).
I'm loving the quick turnaround of autos and the forthcoming multiple harvests per year

My landlord drops by from time to time. I had to cut the NL beauty in my photo album.

I primarily grow photos,
but I like throwing an auto into the mix. I also would like to go 100% autos, outdoors, so I can be out of the woods, before the choppers take to the skies, and the rippers hit the woods.
I have a veg area, where I usually have room to throw the occasional auto, but primarily keep my photo mothers, and the clones, in there. I have a flowering tent, that I use to flower the clones. Properly done, my clones take about as long to flower, as the average auto lives, their entire life. I am still learning about autos, as the are much less forgiving than photos, and will probably do another straight auto grow at some point. My first attempt at autos, I killed 14 autos, and was left with one very small HBD, that finished, resulting in about 2 grams, of excellent smoke. I have not given up on autos, which is why I am still here. Well that, and this is the friendliest MMJ forum on the net. I would grow some autos, but at the moment, my girlfriend is very paranoid, so I can't order any seeds, or have any mailed to the house. It is hard enough for me to grow at all, though she does enjoy the benefits, and is starting to enjoy spending time with my ladies. Before we met, she had only smoked mexican brick, so she had no idea, that marijuana could be so good. Being a nurse, she appreciates that just a couple of hits, medicates me better than a hogleg, of Schwag.

Good question man
