I am growing autos now. Almost chop time. Grown in Real buckets with Recharge and Grow dots. My plants are 5' tall grew into the light. Massive colas
Nice love to see my strains get that big
What lights are you using?
How are you feeding the autos 1teaspoon per gal I am trying to figure out the best amount to feed.
Hlg 320 r spec
What soil are you using?
Ditch weed is hemp, used for making rope. It grows all over the midwest. It is most assuredly not ruderalis.
losing the ability to clone or save genetics makes it an immediate show stopper for my grow personally. I would smoke it all day but I will let others grow it. Thank you for the discussion.
Very wise words. I use medicinally, so finding a great Auto would be disappointing, knowing it can never be "A Keeper".👍💯✌️
My thoughts exactly.
Same, I only clone 1st gen, but they ability to reproduce that one plant I love and control when I flower them is critical to my medical grow.
You said Autoflowers are easy. They are not easy, they are fast. That makes them seem easy.
Autos can be harder because they leave you no time to correct any mistakes or problems.
If you are right on with everything, then they are easy.
I grow both autos and photos. Autos in the Spring. I start them indoors around April, take them outside around May, burning bud by 4th of July.
Where I live May and June are just fantastic for growing outside. No mold, mildew, bugs or anything. Hot sun, cool nights, they just love it. Spring is made for Autos.
I grow photos the rest of the year.
Dude i did exactly that! By chance too. Well im currently doing that but i started them indoors than moved then outdoors beginning of may. I also have photo growing doing its little thang chillin
Fast Buds has really impressed the hell out of me with their Auto & Fast Flowering selections! I've grown Fast Bud Autos for a little over a year and every bean I pop is impressive, just be careful not to over water & LST , LST, LST...
ABSOLUTELY
Fastbuds definitely has it down for sure been doing their strains for about 4 years now just the 1 thing I've learned with them is there original strains can be a challenge and not all the og strains will turn out the same mite have 2 monsters and 2 small plants then a real dud sometimes with a 5 pack of originals. But besides that have had a ton of success with fastbuds
Hey, I have already completed two runs in a row with fast buds seeds, and I am now four weeks into my third. I am so curious as to your comment about minimizing the LST work. My first two runs I did a lot of leaf tucking in the beginning, then, later pruning the large shade leaves the second week of flower, and quite a bit of LST work and no topping and they came out great. This run I was thinking of minimizing some of the LST work to see if I could have the plant put more of its energy to go towards larger buds Vs more branches.
I have FastBuds Pineapple Express auto seeds and I'm gonna run them alongside some 2$ Pineapple Express autos. I can't wait to do the run, honestly would do more brands too but I really hate spending a lot on seeds. I got 100 autoflower seeds from BulkGenetics for like 177$, and honestly the Cheese was my third plant in my first grow and yielded over an ounce in a 2 gallon pot while under a 100w light split with 4 other plants. Actually smelled like Cheese too, was FUNKY. Like it didn't smell good some days, way too cheesy and not citrusy enough. I really didn't think anything would come of the plant but honestly I think modern autos are just awesome.
Tiger Autoflower is the kitties titties, my first 2 plants were from them, cause they have 25+25 for 55$. But they give so many freebies I ended up with like 80+ seeds.
Highly recommend giving Tiger a try, they don't have the largest selection but it's pretty damn good nevertheless. Also their photos suck, the plants will look better in your tent ;)
Mephesto is 100000xs better than FastBudz. Fast Budz is trash😊
Adam, that is NOT what ruderalis is. It was a really small plant that was from areas that had lite for 20 hours a day for part of the year and dark that long the other half. So Natura they became adapted to where they lived over 1000s of years. Then people started breeding with them. And.they rest of.what u said is correct
That’s actually not true ether @jayschaufele7685, ruderalis once actually studied was identified as a subspecies of cannabis. with more in common to a weed due to its ability to grow in not idea conditions and in rubble, it flowers not dependent on light schedule but age, normally between 30 to 40 days. The leaves of ruderalis grow with 3 main fingers and 2 little fingers which look slightly different then the normal 7 to 11 cannabis fingered leaves. But ruderalis since its discovery has always been a plant that flowers and produces thc and other cannabinoids it is a cannabis subspecies plant. same as sativa and indica is different, their is also ruderalis. it was only by crossing ruderalis with sativas and indicas that allowed the autoflower to enhance the production of thc and yield which otherwise would be extremely low. But ruderalis was always a cannabis species. So Adam was and is correct.
No incorrect he’s correct the long winter made them auto flower do they would survive
Yor both correct
Yeah I’m not looking for any kind of argument or anything like that… it’s easily searchable
And the answer is no autos are sub par I don’t care what company makes em. Yeah some taste alright but the other 4 I. The pack taste like ass but look better. Just grow photos veg for 3 weeks at 18/6 and flip to 11/13 and in same time u will have real cannabis that can be cloned and saved for future use and breeding. Where autos flowers seed makers are the modern day crack dealers. U need them seeds. Even the fast flowering varieties that are like 15% ruderalis still have a funky look and taste to me. Yeah u can clone them and reveg em. Those have there place in outdoor grows but autos imo are only worthy of washing into bubble and pressing rosin
I grew 4 fast buds banana purple punch, and they were some of the best nugget I have ever seen. They had some of the best terps too
Fast buds it the best
@@leonardocaromandiola3063 They are not breeders though and reviews can be so so... I think they purchased growdiaries so lots of positive reviews there...
Two things. One autos are absolutely equal photos in strength and the other is they are more suited for indoor home grow than photos. The problem is the inconsistency of the strains which puts a challenge on every grow, where photos are easy cause they are more consistent and predictable
Yeah, all that, and I have noticed, mine all have varied harvest times in the same strain, up to 3 weeks apart for the same germination time.
If you find your holy grail tuff you can't keep it and every strain of Autos are basically lowrider crosses so they tend to have similar tastes
I can only grow autos because I grow outdoors and here the light cycle is always 12 / 12.... Local land race seems to do fine though
Hawaii ? From Kauai I grow outdoor .. just veg indoor then throw um outside when big
I’ll trade you seeds for your local landrace
I tried autos a few years back. I got some feminized auto seeds supposedly White Widow. Almost every plant that I grew to harvest was unique. They all expressed slightly different genetics. I guess I should mention this was the only time time I tried to grow cannabis. None were kick ass potent like you can buy at the pharmacy, but all were decent. There was one plant though that really hit my sweet spot. It eased my pain, and really calmed my anxiety like none of the others. It did not really get me "high" so to speak. I don't like getting stoned that much, I just want to ease my athritic back pain and calm my anxiety so I can sleep at night.
U think weed is strong from the clubs ?? Where lol
And that's all that matters a strain that works for you. If all you can keep that one
Majority of cash croppers have nevilles big bud in the background…
Admittedly mild in cerebral effects and bodystone was unknown
you want indica dominant hybrids brother
Not to forget, that Autos are perfect for outdoor. You may harvest 2 or 3 grows within one summer
Love the info y'all share! The only point I disagree with is being chained to the seed company. I have a lot of success with making seeds with the strains I like so I have literally hundreds of seeds from a single plant so I no longer need to buy from the seed company. I love that I can drop a few plants and in 90ish days I have all the smoke I need for a long long time. They also use way less nutes and way less light intensity to there's $$ saved on that end as well.
I am growing Royal Runtz Auto from RQS atm. About a Week to Harvest. I am very impressed so far! :)
I am growing trainwreck and the free northern lights RQS gave me and in receiving my loup today because i think im about 2 weeks away from harvest
Never tried RQS but even though they are not breeders they have very good quality control apparently. Autos breeders are Mephisto, Nightowl and Dutch Passion for example.
I enjoy autos just because I like the chance to grow different strains on a short timeline. I don’t even hardly smoke but my girlfriend enjoys my hobby. I find the plant itself to be fascinating in all it’s iterations!
I try to keep autos in veg tent at 18. 6 And just switch out photos when ready to go in flower I really like autos
clever trick. I only have a 65W led in my 60x60 veg tent so I wonder if that would be enough for the autos to go all the way including flower. I guess I just have to try! LOL Problem I would need to add carbon filter in veg tent which is not the case for now...
You can reverse a auto to avoid having to keep buying beans.. so it's not like a photoperiod regenerative cycle. Colloidal Silver, get some and treat a few lower branches. Your plant should make feminized auto seeds with this method.. granted the pheno may differ a tad from the initial strain.. also it's not 100% feminized because of hermie traits.
I totally love photoperiod strains way more, autos are convenient..but you just can't dial them in like you mentioned. Plus photos are easy to clone, abuse, regen and mother. Way more stable and usually have better thc & secondary metabolite levels plus yields.
I am working with plant hormones and brassinosteroids trying to find auto strains that theoretically keep blooming indefinitely as long as they are fed.. so kind of like a perennial auto 😅 like a everlasting strawberry plant, it sets its own veg cycle then switches to bloom and as long as you feed them they literally will produce fruit for years.. I think it I can make that type of strain stable and potent then it could change growing indefinitely.. well for alot of folks. cytokinin levels definitely show promise altering the structure and pruning/regrowth structure.. think like when you harvest and leave a bit at bottom and sit back under veg to reveg ... feed massive cytokinin & brass and BOOM every time. So you harvest your buds and instead of having to regen you just keep feeding it clean organics 😅 and watch the buds grow month after month harvest after harvest... granted you may need to up pot size transplant or trim roots etc 🤔 I wonder..
You just gave away an idea to anyone smarter than you who reads that. 😂 stoners.
her is the info fam :ruderalis was first scientifically identified in 1924 in southern Siberia, although it grows wild in other areas of Russia. The Russian botanist, Janischewski, was studying wild Cannabis in the Volga River system and realized he had come upon a third species.
Nice info. Hi to all our Russian friends.
So glad that Scotty’s doin this side gig now. Idk what it is, I love Scotty’s voice… No h o m o… Soothing on a Bob Ross kinda level 🤷♂️ maybe I’m biased to the topic 😂
Mephisto =🔥🔥
I grow an auto in veg to harvest between flowering periods. Autos don't like being hit to hard with light. I decided to take an auto clone. Clones don't grow tap roots. Heard autos trigger if they get root bound or the tap root hits something. I also grow an ultimate purple auto/fast photo outdoors. Decided to grow one out indoors to find out if it is an auto. Think I got lucky and its a girl. I like autos because I can pollinate them before going outdoors in June. So get a few seeds of each plant. I grow cheap autos from happy bird seeds. Only 2$ a seed. I do have Colloidal silver to make females pollinate for seeds. One of the reasons we like the ultimate purple is it shows it's sex early like an auto.
I picked up the little 75gram bag oh growdots & I am no beginner maybe 20 years ago I am telling you these are the easiest things for you to grow pot with the only thing that comes close is Gia green or maybe Lotus I threw 5 gallon plant in the back of my auto flower tent, which is an 8 x 4. By the way auto flowers have came along way even the fast bud 420 line up is just amazing. I am telling you robots are the easiest, easiest, easiest easiest thing to you and I absolutely love that recharge it’s funny I always thought recharge with something you put in after you’ve reused your soil I don’t know what I thought it was and I always make compost tea did not know that was a compost until about a month and a half agoand I watch all these videos so I don’t know but I know that stuff works well done you guys
Great show! Just wanted to clarify that you CAN clone autos and they don’t always flower at the same time as the mother. Found this out reversing cuttings taken for pollen collection and the clone grew another 2-3 weeks after the mother started flowering. Gonna experiment with grafting autos at a couple nodes below the Shoot Apical Meristem
I like auto flower's. I'm going to start an auto flower perpetual grow using Fast Buds 420 seed's and Grow Dots. I'm going to plant one a week in 3 gallon pots with only Happy Frogs soil and Grow Dots blue bag. Keep up the great info !
Autoflower are great if you want a simple setup in a small space and the best feature is they are not light sensitive during flower.
I have grown many autos for fun. Never expect much so I don’t get disappointed
I'm a photo grower because that is how I am set up. But for new growers starting fresh, I think they are great. Faster and easier.
lovin Mephisto
I grow only autos using DWC for almost 10yrs now and they're perfect for my personal medical needs. I can also run a perpetual grow in 1 tent. Why does it matter if you accidentally stunt the plant some if you grow enough of them. You're also not completely stuck with a seed company if you decide to breed your own seeds like your friends at night owl seeds
The first 21 days are the most important days. 2 light feeds are usually all you need one before week before week 3 and a bloom food soon as the nugs starts to form. . Magnesium they don't usually need as they are Finished well before they need it. I only hit my regular pheno type once just the outdoor season usually by the end of July.
I grow my auto's with my Photo's. Even when I flip the photo's to 12/12 the auto's continue on til harvest.
I read this before and thought it could be nice as a part of a perpetual grow. So you confirm they are ok with 12 hours?
I love the people who hate so dead set on the auto hate. It’s inevitable that the day is coming you have to respect autos. The genetic are only becoming more and more stable.
It's actually because they aren't good at growing them 😅 Jeremy silva from build a soil hates on them and fucks them up everytime and he is a dam experienced grower with photos 😅
The argument concerning Autos versus Photos is just childish and only for stupid people. Both have pros and cons and Autos work better for some situations as do Photos. So they are an option to be used if necessary, its not a contest.
@@jamessnee7171 💯💯💯💯👍🏼
Some of the auto strains are getting very hardy and not as temperamental as they were. I'd recommend Wedding cheesecake for the fiddlers....they can be topped LST'd and stems snapped over with no problems. I get between 5.5 and 6.5 from each one in 16l fabric posts/coco using advanced nutrients. Forbidden runts grew to about 6 - 7oz per plant. And the Gorilla cookies and strawberry Gorilla are both 28 THC. from fast buds.
I agree some autos can be really hardy vs some photoperiods. I have had autos sprout dead in the spring with 3 weeks of frost and warm ups and even though they take longer to grow after that they take off and grow like time never stopped after spring fully warms up, It's how I test them.
I have so many issues with photos I don't like. Also some photos have a hard time getting started before they grow due to selection some start out stunted before they can take off that can really suck but it's just the way It goes.
Autos are amazing when you know what you doing. Otherwise its better to do pheno's since you can FUCK UP multiple times for a longer period of time.
Fast buds, fast buds, fast buds, wait... FAST BUDS!
Fast buds FTW. I love the fact I can just shut it down and start again whenever I fancy popping sopped seeds. I hated being tied down to mother plants. now I grow different strains all the time as they new ones come out. Did I mention Fast Buds for the win.
Just done four blue dream, fat bastard 3, apple fritter, knows candy, two each, black berry 2, black berry moon rocks 1, got two and half pounds. Love my tent, love auto flowers.
I just grew 3 auto's in a small 22"x43" closet. ALL taste different. I've also made my own seeds with STS spray, that I also made. Auto's aren't what they used to be. My harvest: 24 Carat/ 2oz, Blueberry/ 6oz, & Jack Herer/ 7.5 oz. All grown in HP pro mix with basic ferts with only calmag added. Great taste with good potency.
I have grown some fantastic Autos. The days of getting herms are over. Also, 8-10wks and you have some quality nugz. Last run was Girl Soout Cookies Extreme. The nugz were leaking resin drops. I have some photos of it showing these dew drops of like a nectar droplets forming on the nuggets. They were really good too.
Where did you get seeds
@@bernerphne7953 the gscextreme were from ILGM.
Growing my first two now, Jack Herer and Gorilla. Funny thing is I ordered autos by accident. I was just advised not to top them, good to know as I was about to.
Appreciate your channel. Perpetual grow with autoflowers…4x4 tent, 5gal fabric pots, living soil, organic dry amendments…sow (3) every new moon…after the 4th cycle, harvest (3) sow (3). Love autos because of the genetic improvements and old school cultivars being crossed with autos. The challenge is to keep the ladies happy all the way through harvest…kannabear420
since its been legal in virginia ive only been growing autos. theyre great. imo.
My first grow was photoperiod 3 years ago.
After that, I planted my first auto and haven’t looked back. It’s ALL I grow.
Ethos Genetics. Planet of the Grapes auto is easy to grow, potent and productive. A go-to me. My son grew professionally for years and said the nugs on my POTG auto are dense top shelf quality as any. Running their Tropical Thunder pack now.
I have grown several auto flower plants in dwc. I find they are very light feeders. You can't give more than a pinch of extra nutrients, or you see the evidence in brown leaf tips. I use 1/3 the manufacturers recommended ratio. I have grown Gorrilla cake, Zkittles, berry blue, and now have a cheese auto and Hippie Crippler auto a few weeks from harvest.I rely heavily on lst methods to increase yield. Keep up the informative shows Scotty.
Im on my first grow and using a tent. Four autos from fast buds 3 out of four are on track. The mimosa cake is a slow grower but we will see
I’m on my 2nd grow growing night owl atm I plan on reversing the last plant or 2 I grow from each pack i grow fem seeds are easy to make
Havent grown since the 70s, watched mr canuck, dr autoflower, stealth grow, and a few others, found nutes I could use around me and grew autos, not to much of a peoblem, cutting this weekend, beer can sized flowers and hard as rocks
I'm growing auto's indoor and gonna use it for a perpetual harvest. I've got enough seeds to last me a couple years if I always have two plants going. One just finished a few weeks ago and got one that will be done in about 15 days. I started the 3rd a little late, it's at the end of week 1. I'm reserving my photo's for outdoors in spring/summer. Plus I only got one tent, 2x3 lol
Cloning is the way to go the true growers clone auto flowers are for outdoor early cropping and places with a lot of light and not enough dark.
I have some auto seeds i got as freebe's. I'm thinking about growing some outside in the garden this coming season.
I love this channel I learn so much here
I think it's all about the space, a photo period can be vegged and trained to fill the space eithout worrying about outgrowing the tent. I'd do autos outside though, the fall can be wet and cold here so you want to finish early Sept.
I did autos for 2 grows. I dont recommend as photos are bigger and easy to get double yield. Veg a little longer and flip lights 12 and 12. Keep the tent closed in a dark room and you wont get a light leak. Put one of your old ass blankets on the light facing side to help more. If you have a corner in a basement, put tent in the corner and wall it off with curtains or keep the lights off.
I like autos because I can keep the big vent open the entire run along with the same light schedule (18/6) without worrying about light pollution. I will say the potentcy isn’t great but then again I don’t like high THC levels.
Most of the autos I grow are 28+ thc. More recently they are upto 29.6 as tested at a recent competition. So strength is there.
Try some Bruce Banner Autos…
They are just as potent as anything I’ve ever smoked in my 66 years on this rock…
Cortez definitely rocks the autos!
Autos in Coco, ReCharge along with Dr Earth organics with worm poo. Feed them a tea weekly in bloom. 👍✌️💨
I just now ordered 3 bundles for my dad his birthday is next week
I grew auto 1 time. I like to have full control. If you get gnats or any other bugs, that could cost you two weeks so with feminized photo I say, when they’re healthy enough to go into flower😂 I have a solo cup with 4 ounces growing I think it’s queens royal. I bought a clone and never transplanted.😂 you don’t need much roots if it gets what it needs eight times a day drip drip🎉
fast and efficient. I love them. i’ve experimenting with clone mutation pollination in the past. I moved out of state and this state it is not legal yet, so I’ll just have to wait.
I tried my first Auto a few months ago. Banana Kush from canucks. Not sure if i spelled that correctly lol anyway, i was pretty disappointed at three months it was 14 inches tall and only gave me five grams. It made my whole house smell though lol that was the only highlight.
from my understanding ruderalis is originaly from russia a wild cannabis plant that grows in all conditions like next to roads and such lol
my first grow was an auto: Pandora.
didnt really know wht to expect and did not have anything to compare with =)
looking back it actually did well thinkin that i didnt really know wht i was doin since it was my very first experience.
it is more expensive tho.
Considering the arguments in this vid, besides that: you also have a larger electricity bill pr plant,
since you do not turn down to a 12/12 light period doin flowering.
If you're growing autos, you need genetics like Dream Beans you can't go wrong
The auto game has changed and still changing..just need to look at genetics I've had a couple autos I'm in love with and a few not so happy with. But great idea to just have one or two In a veg tent if your room lets you. ✌️💚🌱
Ruderalis cannabis has been around for centuries, it actually originates in the cold mountains of Japan where they only have about 12 hrs of light year round.
Definitely love autos... Just got done with some Tropicana Cookies and Purple Lemonade by Fastbuds... And also Super Orange Haze x 24 Carat by Mephisto..all were spectacular
It has got to be cheaper to buy seeds than to keep a mother plant. Seeds are 10 to 15 bucks. You'll burn that in electricity before it is even full grown. Or do you make it up on clones?
Fastbuds!!!! Just started growing this year,,
16 seeds 16 plants, Fastbuds 10 pack mixed auto seeds is like a box of chocolates, don't know what you gonna get but they all good ,great price
All I grow is autos absolute ease of going to work and let them do there things
Autos rock.
We used to call them “ might might “ . We liked it on van island because it finished in august but it was never good weed lol.
I tried fast buds it was good I tried Dutch Masters and it was finicky I would grow both again definitely the fast buds it got extremely tall nice yield
waiting for my first set of auto seeds to come in...
I love my Autos 😎
I'm new to autos, just did a run with one M.A.C.#1 auto by Dutch Passion . I learned the hard way about not being able to correct anything before it's metabolism shut down. So theoretically, if I had a male clone of a auto and used the pollen to pollinate a female auto would it react differently than a photo period even if I pollinated it within the correct time frame?
I only grow autos and I explain why.. they are just stealthy,usually don't smell much and they are fast.. this makes it great for secret grows outdoor... A thing to mention is that autos can grow in bigger bucket and yes they get way bigger so don't listen to people saying that more then 11 liters is useless ...plus yes they auto flower but the quality of light, quantity of light and temperature matter.. and they can flower earlier or later because of these factors.
Bruh....my autos stink up the cul de sac. I can smell them every tme I drive in and my neighbor always gives me the thumbs up
@@kmonty6188 it's all about genetics.. I had autos that smell all around the garden and house and ones that are more stealth.. but overall they don't all smell like crazy . Then depends also how big is the garden ecc...
@@kmonty6188 my smelliest one was og kush by fastbuds... It was crazy hahah.. your smelliest one?
@@federlor damn no shiznit? I usually just shake the seed bag and hope for the best and if Im not successful I just shake the bag again. Isnt that what everyone does?
i just bought the f1 autoflowers from royal queen seeds but im thinking the fast versions from fast buds may be the better option...ive decided i wont be flowering the f1 autos out but instead im given my photos 5 weeks veg with added silica..i use simple nutrients like formulex and a bloom formula with pk13/14..i find root riot cubes are fantastic for the first stage of seedlings.
I had spent 3 years growing autoflowers. When I first started growing again, I did a lot of research and thought autoflowers sounded like a good plant for beginners, I was wrong. In my case I should have started with photos, homes in on my skills then tryed autos. Theirs no room for error and beginners will make errors, which is also necessary because that’s how I learned, by making mistakes. Anyway I’m a little on the fence, with it. I think the best way to grow autoflowers is hydroponically. With no root resistance the plant can actually get very big before entering flower. On occasion I would get real lucky with an auto yielding me 4 to 5 ounces but on average it was like between 1 to 3 ounces. The first time I attempted auto in a 5 gallon hydroponic bucket, I had a yield almost 9 ounces (purple kush auto). When I switched to photos my experience was just so much less stressful lol. I had so much more control and on average my yields and quality are just so much better. I felt like the return with the autos wasn’t worth the time and money I was investing. That has changed a bit now that I have gotten more experienced. I have had some amazing BANGER autos and all within 90 days. I’d say it comes down to preferences, experience, and what you’re looking to do. Inexperienced people looking for yield should probably start with photos.
Have you ever had trouble with them maturing? I’ve had issues with trichs that never go milky. I think I may need to ease off the lights sooner and maybe lower the tent temperature? I agree with hydro being the best. The roots get gigantic. A sea of green in soil is fun too.
@@davidandrew6957 matter of a fact I have and it’s only the autoflowers it will seem it doesn’t matter how long you wait a lot of trichomes just never get milky and stay clear I absolutely have had this frustrating issue only with autos… the most recent one was a purple hulk the whole plant was fading and dieing on schedule the trichomes just never got to that amber color i don’t know what it is…. The autos I had growing next to it in the same lighting and everything were fine. And I have heard only a couple people mention this before and a couple people say they never had this issue. So I honestly don’t know the cause of it. I have noticed it frequently with autos… I think it may have something to do with the autos just having lower THC averages in general but that’s my only best guess.
Oklahoma has that ditch weed . I wonder if its a ruderails
Autos in ground in late may then photos go in ground July first. Detroit area. I get 2 crops a year
Growing autos in a perpetual cycle is the best. No changing the light cycle. Night owl seeds are the best autos..
Need more vids like these ❤
I tried autos just for the short Canadian summers outdoors. Worked out well but I still didnt like the outdoor bud. I stick to my indoor and photo period strains. Its rare I buy seeds.
When I hear Lowryder auto I have bad flash backs to 9 gram yields per plant
Besides more electricity for generally a smaller harvest it’s mainly not being able to clone or control flower throws out any use for autos for me. I’ve grown some that finish in 60 days and have had some Brother Mendels (best auto genetics ever) go past 110 days. I like having control.
I haven’t grown any Brothers Mendel gear. What makes you say best autos ever? I’m always looking for great genetics 👍🏼. But i also see value in both auto and photo. The 18-24 hr light is something for people to consider but even more is if you get a fire pheno you can’t keep it. That being said some of the work being done by the breeders is amazing and gets better every day. Have you tried Night Owl, Rocbudinc, Berserker,ronin garden, Mephisto, Speedruns seeds? There are some other savage beans out there man dont get to laser focused on one breeder. 🤘🏼 im looking to try a new photo breeder. Any suggestions?
@@andydufrain4057 it’s only my opinion and I’d highly recommend trying brother mendel. I’m not getting narrow minded on auto breeders, I don’t grow them anymore. For the last two years I’ve been growing perpetually with photos. Autos don’t really fit into that. As far as a new breeder I’d recommend Green Wolf Genetics and Tarantula Genetics. I’ve grown a lot of Tarantulas stuff and have never been let down.
Most of us are chained to seed banks anyway. I dont have space for clones
I used to keep an auto or 3 in my veg tent, ain’t got the space for that now. Some were great, some were pretty mid in comparison to what they were based on. More often than not ime if there’s a photo and auto version of something the photos going to be frostier.
I just started using grow dots and also trying my first run with autos. My question is, I start the seed straight to soil in a starter pot for 2 weeks then transplant. Are you supposed to add the grow dots to starter pot or when I transplant or both?
Add them when you transplant if you’re transplanting in 2 weeks
But your not realizing you can stick all of the clone cuttings you get off the auto's stick them in a tiny rock wool block and flower them, but that only works if your running RDWC
Running OG Kush Auto i won on DGC Happy Hour show 🤘🪴💚
Can you use grow dots with autos?
Just because there not photoperiod dependent doesn't mean they don't need light deprivation if they get to many light hours during the flowering stage they actually get larfy and another thing you can let them rodlize and you'll never have to buy seeds again
I've grown a couple of Night Owl, both easy to grow and great smoke!?
Grow Organic and Stop listening to every guy on here claiming they know how to grow. He sounds just a tad bit off...Autos Can be Huge with the right training, pot size and light source. I like photos but they take forever to grow and who got.time for that when u can cross breed or take clones. Yes its definitely possible and it will flower..
Personally I dont see any advantage in growing autos indoors. They are great outdoors, but running my lights half again as long for 1/2 - 2/3 of the plants life isn't cost effective for me.
😂😂😂😂😂 u do straight 24
when ordering autos online. It's a bit confusing. Can you ship seeds across state lines. The government has made this legalization in MN very confusing. we have pop-up grow supply places opening everywhere, claiming their seeds are from reputable sources. Are they though? Where do you suggest purchasing seeds? And if on-line can it be shipped here in MN?
I just did autoflower run for #420gtgt first 2 plants freaked out my controller kept turning off light randomly till it happened with me in there. They went from 5finger leaves to 3 but still got em to harvest but stunted got 2 more going now 1 was underfed but may get decent 4 to 6oz plant

Don't use any of that till after it's got like 5 sets of leaves . And use less than what the bottle says it will burn you're little plants easily. And autos, I wouldn't use much at all
Your not married to the seed bank if you make your own seeds!
Been growing autos. Netherland seed companies, Humboldt, and Mephisto. Also got some Northern Lights Photos growing. Autos are too finicky. Tough to dial in each cultivar's recipe. Plus them seem to need less par?
Just throw a like..
