Cream Mandarine is my favorite SS strain too. My CM FV caramel pheno from last year is still great smoke after 11months of storing, with Mandarine smell. Diesel pheno was unfortunately totally destroyed by rot. See pictures in this thread https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=333191
@Skunkist You have great yields on autos in 20l pots. Do you think it's influenced by starting indoors? Which ferts do you use besides quite rich soil, if any? I might have look for the magical minerals additives you mentioned..
Sorry for misunderstanding in post #36 due to my level of English. Now I see you suggested to grow in special taller pots for autos, not to grow Sweet special strain haha. Yep, do you think these taller pots can have reasonable influence on your plants compared to my low cost buckets?
No problem dude . I overpassed the misunderstood and you have corrected yourself . And so , yeah, a taller pot is always nicer for the main root . ( Big is nice , but TALL is better . )
The more you give them, the more they give back great results .
"This difference in shape, achieves a better development of our auto-flowering marijuana plants , because their roots will develop more as a network and less as a spiral, having more of and a deeper substrate in which to grow. This will reflect in its growth, and especially in its final yield."

For example . Those are 18l but 20l are similars . Seedlings directly inside, it is quite ridiculous at the beginning of the grow, but very important .
(those 5 auto critical from female seeds has produced 70 to 120 gr each)
