What is an AutoFlower:

Autoflower Weed is a plant that will start ''Flowering'' on its own... with No Extra Changes to the LightCycle, so an AutoFlower can have 24hours Light or 20/4 or18/6 or 12/12.

*We use 18/6... thats 18h Light & 6h dark

when we start an AutoFlower grow we like to use Pots wich can hold 11Liters this amount is more then enough, a Bigger Pot can be used ofcourse but 11L is enough

so whats the Amount of Weed i can get from an AutoFlower?

well it should be around 100/200g Per Plant

so how many Grows in 1 Summer?

well because it takes an AutoFlower 2 months to get from Seed to Harvest... you could do 3 OutDoor Grows in just 1 Summer, that would be 100/200g-ish per Plant

now 2 Months of Growth ain't that much, 2 weeks of ''Flush'', 2 weeks of ''Drying'' and then 2 Moths of ''Cure'' in Glass Jars, though many Skip the ''Cure'' Process and just start Smoking when Everything is Dry enough to Smoke... yes we some time like to do so to but only to test the weed if its good enough

so when does a AutoFlower start to Flower?

normally it would be after Week 4 from Seed... but we like to give our Seedling 1 Week to Grow, then 4 Weeks of ''Veg'' that means our AutoFlowers will start there ''Flower Stage'' after 5 Weeks, then 5 to 6 Weeks of Flower to get the Most out of the Plants, plus we like to LST (Low Stress Train) the Plants to get More Main Tops instead of just having One Gaint, Big Main Top aaand at the end 100/200g-ish will be Harvested, this amount we can only get by doing the LST, without LST we would have just 50/100g-ish

*Could be a good Idea?

so whats a ''Regular'' then?

well a ''Regular'' Flowering plant has to notice that the days are getting shorter and shorter, that means the amount of light it gets will get less and less when this happens the plant will be like :''Damn October is getting near, better get my flower on''. so when growing a ''Regular'' plant all you need to do is change the hours of light the plant gets to 12h Light / 12h Dark 

(an autoflower does this on its own, no matter how manny hours of light it gets, it just starts flowering)

*South American Seasonal Forest Grow, from Veg(18/6hrs) wich will change with the Seasons and so will the hours of light, Flower(12/12hrs) or even shorter
