those are very impressive sir and I grow autos as well @Galaxy704 photos too but autos for like 3 years now and they are gaining ground in the grow world I see lots more folks growing them trying them breeding them and I think it’s very cool I don’t think they will ever replace photos for commercial or production ton grows but as more states and countries move to legalization and more casual growers try there hand at growing I think they will become more and more important. I grow mine in 2 2x4 perpetual areas a really enjoy playing with pollen chucking AUTOS lol

Thanks @cannabliss and @lefthandseeds . The first 2 pics are Cheese and Wedding Cheesecake. They got a bit burned, they were in my grow kit test thread and I tried to follow the GH feed schedule to the letter, lol, that failed. The Wedding Cheesecake is also the only Auto I have ever Supercropped, that turned out awesome. I had to switch it up in the end so as not to ruin them. The others were my normal feed schedule. I did get some Cheese x PPP and Wedding Cheesecake PPP seeds out of it :slight_smile:

Always be careful as not all autos are the same.

My strawberry stomper wanted feeding every day, but was the only one of the 6 mephs that could. take those nutes.

It didnt even turn out to be the biggest.

Um, which ones?

The last pic.

Ok, those were the White Widows. The seeds broke surface march 2nd, pic was may 29.

In my limited experience I agree its all about the genetics. I have Humboldt Sour Apple running and its vigorous and healthy, They seem very sensitive to nutes so I am trying to research that and wonder how to find Auto Regular Seeds so I could make my own seeds. I see True North Seed Bank has them so maybe I could try there. I grew Alien Otto and it is short about 2 feet with a huge cola and side colas

So then why? what are the weak points etc. that you saw, just wondering

Iv only grown autos outside. Half didn’t do much. Just made airy wispy buds weak in potency. I also had outdoor autos make dense potent buds. The better ones are just as good as photos imo. I recently grew one that I purchased from a seed bank. It didn’t yield much but it was very good. Strong smoke smelled like mint

My problem was you never know what height they will start to flower, I grow in Phototrons…

The few(5) I grew were decent enough smoke just not impressive yielders, most gave about 2oz so. Had i been in soil instead of individual dwc buckets it seems yields would be comparable to photos with short veg time. Think they’d run nicely in sog 1plant/sqft - 2sqft
