Due to some severe weather in September, some of the later started auto's were brought inside to finish.
Here's an example pre harvest:




Saw this little guy/gal outside content on our table:


Here's one of many 'hand-hash' balls, collected after a day of de-seeding:


The progress of seeds made on our one year anniversary in October:

One of my favorite threads on IC. Are you planning on releasing any fem autos? Let us know when beans are up for sale please. I would love to grab a few packs. Keep progressing the autos and have a great day!.

Hi bud, thanks

Well, we are nearly up to speed with the general adventure, builds, and some of the growing lark that has taken place here in the year.

We have also been hard at work progressing some brand new AF strains, which I will unveil soon.

As with everything, it takes time, many strains have been 2+ years in the making from conception to this point, but if things go smoothly we should have a catalogue of strains to release in spring 2014

Thanks for watching, Mitch

Let's see if we can't get some mephisto genetics into portugal paulo, and you never know, it could be your doobie of choice.

We aren't in a rush to get anything out, (not that we aren't constantly working on projects) but I mean to say that I don't want to rush to get things out unless I'm 110% happy first.

We ran some AF projects @f2 indoor in summer, and I didn't find the perfect plants I was looking for, so now we are about to re-run an even higher number in the hope I will find those A* specimens.

Breeding is certainly a numbers game, with a little luck too.

Many Autos on the market are straight auto x auto crosses, which can still be great with good selection, many 'new' autos use a bx to another auto to get the auto trait stabilised quicker.

Eg: (Auto x non auto) x Auto
But we are doing it the longer way F1 through to F4, probably F5 before anything is let out of the door.

We then plan to inbreed for a few more generations and then backcross to the photoperiod parent and begin working it back to AF from scratch.

At that point the autoflowering parent genes will be significantly reduced , apart from keeping the Auto trait locked in.

Cheers, Mitch

In the past couple of months we have had some great guests to come and stay, chat, smoke, talk ideas through etc!
Recently we had Karma, and this fellow later.


we did some testing, water, soil, etc. Had a play with some gadgets.


Because 90% of our work this past year was making seeds, we have a lot of bi-product material to play with, this barrel is around 80 litres and super compressed!


we rented a bubbleator xl, and some 90 litre bubble bags, using a 200 litre barrel we got to work.


Results in next post
