I chose auto thinking, theoretically, I could maintain18/6 and have plants in multiple stages without dividing the room. Am I missing significant genetics, yields, timing by not using Fem? Is there potency, taste or other characteristics advantages either way? Thanks! Aloha!

If I had a auto tent and a photo tent ( I do) and was forced to kill a tent it would be the autos. I enjoy them both but potency and taste in photos rule

Buds from photos cone out alot more dense also. I have noticed this myself. My autos give good buds but they loosen up during dry and cure and dont firm back up as much as the photo ones do. Taste smell and overall looks photos kill it also. I enjoy both as autos seem to get me harvest between photo harvest so i keep up fairly ok if i do both. Harvest the autos and a month to 6 weeks later im doin the photos and the autos are going again by then and in flower or about there.

I have grown some absolutely fantastic autos! You could be perfectly satisfied with what you get by consecutive harvests but what is really the difference between harvesting X amount at once vs. X amount at the same time?

I bought my fertilizer from my ILGM and it’s correct and very simple
