yea but i am in constant fear with photos for hermies as they arent very forgiving with lightschedulesOnly a couple differences between photos and autos the way I see it.
1. You are in the drivers seat with photos. Autos are in the drivers seat
2. Less flexibility with light on photos. The autos can be grown under virtually any light conditions. You will need specific set ups for the photos.
3. Grow em as big or small as you want. Very easy to change plans with photos. Not so much with autos.
Having said that, I like to be in control when possible. I like to try to get the plant to the size I think I want it before flipping. Photos give me lots of flexibility in size and timing.
Autos give you flexibility in what you want to do with lighting. I must have moved my auto back and forth from 18/6 to 12/12 ten times or so during the course of its grow. Nice flexibility to have without worrying about light stress.
