Welcome back Lowcoast, good to see you again. I agree, you'll have to time this right for it to work. Photos will double or triple in size once they are switched to 12/12, so if you veg them for 10-12 weeks while you're growing out the autos, the photos might be 2' tall or more by then, so could end up being 6' by the time they finish. I would suggest you wait till the autos are about 6 or 8 weeks old before starting the photos. If you start them all together and then switch to 12/12 when the autos are 4-6 weeks old, then their yields will be greatly reduced. Very difficult to grow them together and have them both do well.

First off good to hear from you as well my brother....ah shit what have I got myself into..... well I have already five seeds about germed already....three photos and two autos....how long should u veg photos I thought two months was about right....any info on this would be a big help...as wasting my seeds is it an option.with yalls help and my ocd we should be ok...any and all advice is welcome...thanks again and great to hear from you guys again...feels so good to be back.

How long to veg the photos depends on how big you want them to finish. If you veg them to 12" they should end up in the 24 - 36" range. I wouldn't expect you would want to veg them more than about 4-6 weeks at the most.

Well the seeds are starting to show tap roots I was gonna plant them tonight...what would you do muddy....

You could always move the photos out from under the lights after 12 hours and put them someplace completely dark. Then put them back in the next day. Or grow the autos outdoors and the photos indoors. I would probably run the lights 18/6 till the photos are ready to go 12/12 and then switch the lights back to 20/4 and move the photos out from under the lights everyday. PITA but otherwise your auto yields will suffer under 12/12.

Depends on the strain. You listed several. Most indicas go about 8 weeks but sativas much longer, anywhere from about 10 up to 16 weeks. Usually the flowering time listed by the seed banks are about right for photos.
