interesting stuff.
But how about this experiment?:
Graft an auto-flowering strain unto a normal flowering strain host. When the auto strain starts producing flowering hormones, some of it may be transmitted to the host. In theory, the normal flowering host should be able to flower under unconventional light schedules with less problems.
There has been experiments showing graft transmission of flowering hormones:
"Nicotiana sylvestris is a long-day plant and Nicotiana tabacum, var. Maryland Mammoth (M.M.) is a short-day plant."
"If Nicotiana sylvestris, for example, is cultivated under short-day conditions, does it not develop flowers, but if a leaf of a Nicotiana tabacum, M.M. plant that was cultivated under short-day conditions is grafted to Nicotiana sylvestris, then it is stimulated to flower. This means that the Nicotiana tabacum, M.M.-leaf had produced a substance that was transferred to the recipient after grafting and that caused its flower formation."
