Let's get this thing started. Partner hit em with question #1

 

[Lady Cannafan]

Question 1

This is a two part question, please explain your answers:
Do autoflowering plants get the same nutrients as photo period plants? and is it true that you can put auto flowering plants under either veg or flower schedule and it has no effect on the way they grow?

 

[B A R]

Let's go folks... Make some noise!

 

[Green Closet]

I'd say yes they still need the sam veg and flower nutes but at different times. Also the light schedule will affect the way they grow yes, but they dont need the altered schedule to acutally flower

 

[B A R]

Finally...

 

[Lester Freeman]

Q1 Yes, autoflowering plants require the same nutrients as photoperiod plants. The second part is not true, autoflowering strains are a only a hybrid between russian ruderalis, based on the environment, the plant is able to express its genetics through the proteins, and plant tissue, if an autoflower expresses itself more like its sativa half, it will indeed be sensitive to photoperiod changes. A great example of this was when my KC-45 autoflower went into to reveg as seen on my current journal. To correct the issue, I had to light deprive, and force flower my autoflowering plants to get them to flower normally.

mascot what lester said

 

[Green Closet]

ha im surprised i was the first to answer

 

[BeemerBill]

They don't seem to mind the same nutes as the big sisters but you do need to watch when they start flowering so you don't over N them. And as far as light goes they say it doesn't matter but the ones I have done were outside. I'm sure Lester will have something to say about that

 

[Lady Cannafan]

It takes some people time to type. I can type 100 words to my Pops two. LOL

 

[Brassic Brit]

I'm going with Lester for that great answer.
