Afghani x [lowryder#2 x afghani]. Lowryder#2 xafghani is the male and was an auto but i back crossed it to a differnt pheno of afghani hoping i get a shorter flowering afghani plant. Will any autos come from these seeds? Will the lowryder#2 lower quality? So i far i got 2 female phenos of this cross both are non autos but same height ,looks,smells ,nearly identical in every way . Any one ever do a cross like this?

25%. Look at lower right square. bb It'll have some LR#2 in it along w/ photoperiod.

That's how true auto breeders do it (us, for instance). F1 you cross with auto again (F2), then bx (F3)to get stable auto. Takes time/effort. We then cross one more time (auto and F3) to ensure stable genes. Good luck!

The lowryder#2 x afghani is an f1 cross so i was thinking it might change that a bit

If your cross looks like (LR#2 x Affie) x Affie you will not realize any aitoflower traits until it is taken to the F2...


If you F2 the LR#2 x Affie you will get approx 25% auto flowering plants.


If you cross back to the LR#2 then you will see about 50% auto flowering plants.
