    Changing light cycle

    Hello Friends!

    So my current grow is AK-47 AUTO which is in flowering and left about 1 month to finish
    My light schedule is 18/6

    Today I received 2 new seeds and Im planning to grow them under 20/4 light cycle.

    So my question is:
    If I change light cycle from 18/6 to 20/4 will this stress my auto? as she was grown 18/6 from the beginning.

    Thanks in advance!

    That's a good question! I too contemplated changing my light schedule when my autos were later on in the flower stage. I was at 21/3 and wanted to go to lights on the whole time, but didn't want any adverse effects so I didn't end up doing it. If you do it, let me know what happens!

      No I grow lights on 24 7 for autos they love it if u switch your auto will love it. More light more energy. More energy more weed.
      It's 4:19 u got a minute?

        You can change your light with auto's at anytime with more or less light intensity, too! <--be mindful- increasing the lights strength, you may have to re-adjust a few days until the plant settles. Same light, just different lights on-off time- no need to adjust.

        Initially, I used autos to fill up open tent spaces and have changed in booth directions and back again- many times.
        It's all bullshit - until you smoke it!

          I use 24 hours on, no darkness for my autos, but I've tried 18-6 an 20-4, I've changed in the middle of grows without any problems. They sure like 24 -7 .
