agoob....you still talkin nonsense. like others sed, best autos take 70-80s to finish. yer talking in a fish tank.
and yeh, clonez are good, autoz have their purpose

When they first started appearing regularly in forums a few years back it seemed to me mostly noobish growers grew them and perhaps that’s the case I’ve not gone out of my way to seek out threads on them.
At that time I scorned at them because they didn’t seem to yield well and finished to early to be useful. Over time pictures, diaries and reviews show them well sorted enough in the size department.

In the end I still wouldn’t play with autos with a barge poll if you paid me. Hard enough to get seed as it is here and if you can’t breed autos or can ya?... what’s the point.

Still hate them with a passion and scorn the mention of them anywhere.

Fuck Autos

Ok, got your point. There's a time and place for every seed under the sun.

We donate regularly to a few Veteran's Grow groups- they beg to differ and find fast maturing meds helps them.

There's many in the world that enjoy a smaller version of their photoperiod sisters.
To each their own.

Well said. If you can make use of them then all the luck to you and I’m sure they’ll keep improving as time goes by. I cant knock the quality as i’ve tried one either.

I could see them being useful let in summer if you wanted an early harvest or in for what ever reason you could only use extended artificial lighting.

But what about the diy breeding part about it so your not constantly paying for seed how does that work?

True on all accounts. Breeding or open pollination for plentiful seeds....the trick is best traits both male/female.

Yo I’ve always had it in my head that somehow that auto’s aren’t able to be bred by Joe average cus only 50 % would be auto and the rest photo period or something like that. Maybe it was miss information around at the time or just my crap information assimilation cus I just debunked now it with a fresh look, thread/forum flick through.

one question please.

Do autos behave differently when sprouted into a 12/12 regime as a posed to 18/6 for their life cycle?

Would they flower straight away like an indica or still be non light schedule dependant.

Cheers

you can keep every strain with 12/12 from seed when seeds are fresh and everythings ok
its just like another normal strains in 12/12 - some react like small go to flower quick plants and some autos grow to some size /mass/ and in reality ,,vegetate,, sometimes longer than photoperiods in 12/12. //Also f1 auto x nonauto can vegetate longer than photoplants //
if you mean only sprouting in 12/12 than no problem and with longer lights afterwards
-but everyman here tell you much light as you can

[-BRR-]

thanks for the reply

I meant lets say you have 2 of exactly the same seed (pheno) for arguments sake.

One auto into 18/6 other into 12/12 from the get go. What would difference in vegging size achievement be likely to be.

Reason I’m interested is being in the tropics our summer/winter daylight differences are only 13/11 to 11/13.

So perhaps apt question is has anyone grown a proven auto strain in the tropics outdoors?

why not,, i grow always 12/12 and never have problem,,, only for some is yield per plant problem,,
outdoors is different but basically the same
