I just popped a few photoperiod plants last week and all three sprouted . I’ve got them inside on a 24 light cycle that I’m also running a couple autos on currently .
The plan is to see what they sex as and move them outside after the frosts are done next month .

I never cared for autos much as a good portion of them retain a rope flavor from the Ruderalis genetics that make them autoflower. I did find a few though. I did a ton of test grows, with probably 15 of them that Gypsy Nirvana gave me for free in return for grow logs on them. I also had a lot of herms with those. Early Girl, Early Pearl, and the NL kind were pretty good though. The majority of them had too much rope in them for my taste, but they serve a purpose for those in early frost areas for sure. Seen a lot of amazing pics of some of the newer stuff that makes me salivate, so maybe they have come a long way since then. I am just now clearing out my growing area with two lights still hung and maybe 16-18 buckets of soil in there. My wife made it a storage area after I stopped growing, and stuff was piled in there higher than my head lol. What a mess to have to deal with after all these years. I plan on putting the grow lights into a container and keeping them for when I retire later this year. I think when we move back east, they might come in handy.

Do you guys do anything leading up to harvest ? This was in a super soil mix called Michigan mix . This was Only in a 1 gallon pot so not to big but I’m ok with what i got .

I try to cease adding fertilizer in the last two weeks of flower so as to allow the plants time to clear out any fertilizer salts.
Instead, I switch to blackstrap molasses (unsulphured molasses) for the second to last week and plain water for the last week before harvest. One tablespoon of molasses per gallon of water is a safe and effective ratio.
Nice looking plant !
