i dont' care what the seeds cost. if i want them bad enough i will justify the expense. just put a great product out there with some proven results and i'll try it.


need many more sativa autos, i agree.

need some hash plant autos for the short season. outdoor growers should give autos another look just from a hash making perspective. sour 60 makes amazing concentrates, BHO from it can be too strong at times. would love to see rez donate some hindu kush beans to an auto breeder.

Interesting points reddy, If seeds look like they will be worth the investment (for the higher priced ones) and if the quality is good enough to keep a cut or make yourself some f2's for a later date then its money well spent.

If I think on an average/crap night out I could rinse £50, stay in for two nights and I could afford 90% of seeds out there. And have nice plants instead of a nasty hangover!

The only thing that is a scam with the 3 'super autos' for £30 is you cant clone them, and being fems you'd have to use different pollen if you wanted any seeds for yourself. Maybe you could self them if you really wanted to.

very true statement
:respect:
 
spyder is one of many I have tried and its not some ordinary auto flower it is the superman of auto flowers and its not £30 for 3 beans. ten in a pack and i got mine for 50$. 3 ounces one plant in the veg room Im happy, and better than 90% of the stuff out there.
can you see it now? right on canned abyss1
 
ruderalis has certain cannabinoids in higher concentrates than indica or sativa. If this push for medical marihuana is real than lets look at the use of the cannabinoids in auto flowering plants.

Hi All!
As the title suggests,I'm here to gather information as to why y'all have such a "thing" for AF plants.
Breeding,Reservoir has always selected away from AF phenotypes,as do most in the business,including my pal Tom Hill.
We consider AF's to be essentially useless,and certainly not to be bred into a line.
So,I wonder why,instead of growing AF's,you guys don't just select short flower-cycle females,like Cinderella 99 or a nice quick indica,and flower them shortly after rooting,all packed together,if you must? With a 50-55 day 12/12 cycle,C99's as "short a cycle" as a short cycle gets.
Or,hell,even grow "feminized" short-cycle seeds over AF's?
It also seems a lot of AFs are low in potency-and that's a Big No No in my book.
I have no wish to argue,and won't,I just want to know and to understand what it is that's so attractive to y'all about auto-flowering plants,is all.
I appreciate the time taken to enlighten me!


:thank you:

Alright here we go...heh

24/24 automatic flowering under lights. You do not need a dark room and therefore never have to worry about herm issues. Veg lights in the veg room not being used at some point...Well why not? Pop 50 roadrunners at a 1/4 to 3/4 ounce a plant under 2, 4ft 8 light flouros 1 gallon square or plastic bags and your golden =)

Don't have time to veg but need emergency funds? Pop 50 fem'd roadrunners.

Have to get out of your grow house in 60 days? Pop 50 roadrunners...

Want to do an outdoor grow that is really low key? Pop 100 fem'd roadrunner that sit barely on the ground and easily hidden.

It all boils down to utility for me with AF's. I used to think they had 0 purpose now they have saved my ass financially twice.

Fem'd autoflowers = fantastic utility.

I will never use non-fem'd autoflowers again,,,waste of time and space.

Roadrunner #2 kicks ass period. Fantastic yield, can beat the shit out of them and they are fine, looks great (had no problem at 4200 pound in non med state), and they fuckin reek....

So please make some fem'd chemdog AF's....

:artist:

*the obvious downside is plant count numbers and those that are greedy...I will only use them in time of emergency. I can definitely see some crazies popping 300 for outdoor or indoor grows...

First off, Rezdog does not make Ducksfoot, I believe that is Wally Ducks baby. Also I tried years ago to work with Ducksfoot in doors, and is not easy to grow well indoors. Its best suited outdoors, just as it is. I want to work with a "Super Silver Sour Diesal Haze" S 1's, that would be the best for me. I like the idea off getting Rez's best genetics to work with, with his blessing. Contact me anytime Rez, as we will work out the details.


hey mdanzig and rezdog, if you guys are gonna try making new af strains can you please consider something with the ducksfoot trait for stealth growing outdoors. this would be a very well disguised practical plant to grow for many. i have mentioned that someone should make this cross on another thread but this seems like the rite place to do it with you both here. anyways let us know if this is possible. thanks

How's it going MD, when you get a chance PM me and let me know how things went the other day.

I have to disagree about the Ducksfoot indoors, check out my Ducksfoot thread.
I am loving the Ducksfoot pure heady sativa goodness.

Also getting the Ducksfoot "webbed-leaf" pattern is some what difficult to acheive along with auto-flowering. I worked on it for 6 months and logged it all on the original overgrow.com website. I was almost there, but the Ducksfoot is very difficult indoors, and that would be the only way I could breed it would be indoors. At least it was difficult for me. Has anyone else had trouble with Ducksfoot? I like DF, but I want to only do auto's with proven cup backgrounds.I need the best of the best to work with, and although DF is very good, I cant deny the SSSDH as being outstanding, as the various cups tells us just that.

Im glad you did well with DF indoors, as I thought it was much better suited for outdoors.

DieselRyder x Roadrunner is what it says on a few strain sites. And roadrunner #1 seems to be a lowryder cross.

hope that helps




Or better yet,what does the AF community need?

What's seriously lacking in AF's right now?
Potency?
Flavor?
Speed?
Once we answer those questions,we can determine what direction this Project should take.


So.... Input?



Cheers!

More sativas, there's plenty of indica AF's out there commerically.

Hi Rez, I believe potency, and flavor are the two most needed aspects to make an auto stand out. It was the initial flavor of Lowryder that turned me off.


Hiya All! :wave:
Nah,I'm not pissed,there was an off-topic argument here that irked me-No big deal.
(If I wanted to argue the merits,or lack thereof,of AF's,I would have started a thread called "AFs Suck,Let's Argue"!) :D
That said,I'm pleased to get into an AF Project with you-Supplying Reservoir genetics for such a Project would be My Pleasure.

For sativa,SSSDH S1s,I believe,would be a great base for an AF-since they tend to auto to an nth' degree,any way.
If M/F seeds are a preferred base,then SSSDH IX-I is the answer.

For indica,a Chemdog IBL-based AF is imo a good idea,but you'd have to introduce AF-dominant,indica-based genes as the Chemdog isn't prone to AF'ing.
If you had an Afghani with strong AF traits that'd be a great choice,for instance.
Chemdog IBL's best traits-sheer power,heady flavor and compact,super-heavy flower/cola structure,all are very dominant and usually transfer well when out-crossed to well-chosen
P1 Stock.


Most Importantly,what interests you,Mdanzig?

Hey, I didn't read the entire thread only the beginning....I'd like to add though; since I been growing MasterLow for almost 5 years, it's around generation 15....and it's a great plant..super strong roots/stem, tons of sugar and very fast bud...one of my favorite part about MasterLow is in Canada seeds are legal...so if you want to bring a jar of 50,000 MasterLow seeds up north its perfectly legal until you germ....also as many people mentioned before you can have multiple crops per year.

I had and I'm having trouble with Ducksfoot indoors. I believe using bluer light helps. I could be wrong though. The smoke on the F1 is killer. If it could be kept as is it would be all I'd want.

i live in a VERY cannabis-unfriendly area. i have to deal with helicopters, deer, cows, horses, etc out of doors. doing indoors means dealing with smart-meters that can tell when something starts up, what it is, & duration of time it is on. using the latest fluorescents & leaving them on 24 hrs a day means little to no heat issues, low light bills, no traceable 12/12 hour patterns, and i STILL get a crop in a fraction of the time it would take otherwise. flavor & potency of what i have had so far are comparable to what is on the street, only free! what is not to like? and it is only going to get better...:)
