lazydays Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 ive heard of people doing it this way...but its reduced yield by loads... autos need 20/4....more light more bud.... good luck with your grow... Link to comment
AstroNut Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 18/6 is the lowest cycle I would personally use and that I have found just as effective as 20/4.. ATB Astro Link to comment

AstroNut Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 No that won't cut it unfortunately as Autos have a very short veg life and they need the best start possible with as much light as you can throw at them for the first 3 weeks..... Link to comment
threewisemonkeys Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Sorry to jump in but with autos on 20/4 does the dark cycle have to be uninterrupted, no light. I know with fems/regular they can hermie if the dark cycle is interrupted or you have light leaks. Would this also happen with autos? Link to comment

Fortunately not experienced it myself and not heard of any Auto growers on here experiencing it either.. YOU DECIDE..... Link to comment
