Yes, I understand that the autos will grow less under GLT than they would under 24/0.The problem is that you will lessen the vegetative growth of the autos which will definitely make for a smaller harvest.
This is more of the "best compromise I can think of" mode, because we have to slash the power bill.
GLT works best for the photos, which was kind of the determining factor.
I was just kind of throwing the autos in there because I already have them, so I thought I might as well use them. And they can grow along with the photos, kind of use up the slots, and we will get as much as we get in this last round under the LEDs.
(The alternative is I could pluck them and plant more of the Haze CBD regulars for the roof, but I really like these little Afghan Mass XXL Autos. I like the terpenes. They taste like limonene and oinene to me. And earth.
I thought they might be sativa, but I guess I was wrong. I guess they are Indica. But I really like them in the cob.
I was really hoping to let the colas branch out, but not if it is Indica with only medium mold resistance.
If it is an Indica with only medium mold resistance, that I need to make sure I've got maximum airflow.
From personal experience perlite doesn't wick anywhere near as well as soil. And @NickHardy tried a perlite wick in a SIP and that plant failed as I recall. I'd recommend soil.
Great to know, thanks!
I think I might start with the AC Infinity bases, just to be safe on a first grow.
