Autos and outdoor grow

Yeah, I would say it's an auto. All autos will flower regardless of light schedule....but how long it takes them will depend on their genetics......some will go from start to finish in around 60 days......while others can take up to 90ish.

Putting some extra light on them won't effect them as far as interrupting their cycle or grow.....it will just improve the yield...which, to me, is a good thing.

 

Most run around 80 days total

I've never used hoods so I am not sure.....I would THINK more actual light would benefit the plants a little more than a hood.....but I could be gravely mistaken....so maybe wait to hear/ask someone else....lol....sorry about that.

 

Sometimes if you take a clone from an indoor setting where it receives 24 hours of light and put it outdoors it will trigger flowering even if it isn't and autoflower. Is there any way of asking the person you get the clones from if it's actually an auto?

 

From my understanding it is not typical to clone an autoflower as the clones will act as thought they are the same age as the mother plant, This means you are missing out on critical veg time and end up with a small plant with low yields.

 

This still is the "general" rule of thumb....but as the autoflowers progress, so do the growing techniques.....saying that.....I dont clone autos.... but others do...

 

Exactly this. I grow/clone/breed autos

I only clone them for breeding purposes since small plants can still produce tons of seeds.

I usually cut 2-3 clones before they go into flowering. They will be NOTHING in comparison to the plant they came from.

 

You can make any plant autos

You can't make any plant an auto....but you can breed any strain into an auto if you so desire....
