I’m happy to see so many more auto growers around. A little less trolling from the strictly photo guys is nice to see as well.
I’d say autos are still very misunderstood and far too often old misinformation about them is repeated and spread.
You may have heard autos can’t be or are very difficult to clone, or that there is no point. That depends on perspective and goals, but I can assure you they can be cloned, and can be useful in breeding and seed making. It’s been a while since I’ve done this, but thought I’d document so people can see progress close to real time.
Project details: This is a mix of advanced F gens, my own hybrids, and some fems from
Known breeders. These were all stress tested young and then allow to bounce back. I’m now making my first cuts right around week 5. There were many other plants and strains, but these were the standouts. Some others have been reserved for making seeds only, some were killed in stress testing, other stunted, and finally, some culled.
3 x Marathon OG F5/6 (repop)
4 x Zkittlez x Blueberry (mine, temp name Zibba)
1 x Forbidden Runtz (FB)
3 x Amnesia Haze (Barney’s)
2 x Bananas Purple Punch (FB)
1 x Amnesia x Blueberry reg (mine)
Marathon OG: some beans from some F5 and F6 I made. Wild looking leaves, very OG structure, one smelled like loud stereotypical OG in veg, another looks very OG and is OG but different, and the other is like a mix of the two. Internode spacing on this is kinda comical, very lanky and wide open.
Zibba: These are the most uniform, have the best smells, and are perfect little hardy bushes. I know both of these strains very well, I’ve held and grown a lot of blueberry, same with Z. These are cool because they’re so perfectly what I thought might be but better so far.
This is work I did years ago and mom was one of the more interesting and cloneable autos I’ve ever grown. I was cloning several other autos that were outpacing the Z autos I was running, they were lovely plants but kept getting shaded and outpaced. Little did I know, three or the plants around them would all yield over an elbow and be absolute monsters. It led to me ignoring the slower vegging and flowering Z. I randomly cloned the Z mom in flower and most rooted, pollinated with a few strains of pollen, and here we are. I would have popped these years ago had I known they’d be like this.
Forbidden Runtz: This and Skywalker were early standouts and were uppotted together. Both did well for a while but the Skywalker has really struggled, but this is a nice plant all around, vigorous, nice structure, great early smells.
Amnesia Haze: these are all really different, two are variegated and large, one is a monster and not variegated and one variegated plant os simply gorgeous. Two other plants reserved for seeds. Hazy notes showing up with a mix of citrus, and cotton candy. These are slow into flower, which I kinda like.
BPP: Two of these are insane plants. Beautiful structure with lots of branches, towering over most other strains and plants, and one smells like a purple candy shop, whether that smells like. One of these will be reversed to make more and other hybrids.
Amnesia Blueberry: had three really nice plants, but as time goes on there’s one standout female. Not quite berry or haze and have high hopes for this one, but likely she’ll only receive pollen and not be reversed. I really want to several girls, but not enough space. One boy I kept showed a couple stigmas, one girl is finicky like a blueberry parent, so taken as a whole, this one girl will likely be a mom in a new hybrid I’ll test.
Here we go, this was from Thursday and will update later
grow…
OG and the folk that inhabit it!
) with far too many undeserved egos vying for attention 
in line. I will grow any good auto!
