automatic without ruderalis?

its always hard to believe, but yea there are a few ones.

personally I prefer the very early flowering strains without any ruderalis.

MM is awesome because it's an auto that doesn't have ruderalis genetics in it.

Companies like Highrise seeds have been making MM crosses for years. Mighty Durban, Bluebonic Guerilla, Patriot meds (early skunk)

Just because i wont grow out our good old classic canadian junk does not mean i wont grow outside. I just choose more modern varieties. Why would i run stuff i regard as trash when theres stuff like green crack you can pull down early september... you dont need autos to grow up here people got along just fine before them. Have you ever heard of texada timewarp? For idk bout 35 years that got alomg just fine being a early finishing plant resistant to mold.

FYI mighty mite has rudy in it. Thats what causes the auto trait i hate to break it to you. Mighty mite is terrible its not even a true auto.

Anyway the op was asking if crossing those 2 things will make headstash. The answer is not in a million years. You are free to like mighty mite but i invite you to take a look around what we have modern day, old stuff is just a waste of money. Im not the only one who said no, no one said yes so why you argue with me, i dont know it seems like nitpicking my opinion to me. In no way do i find might mite amazing i find it the total opposite IMO its as bad as it gets, you sgould probably try something made this century because lots of things that pre date the 2000 really are not that impressive these days...

thanks for the advice. I guess just choose a good auto to begin with.

I have 6 different ways to achieve big seeds. These do not mean a bigger plant at the end. Proper care and genetics determines that. What this will do is create a seedling that is hardy, big, and a couple days ahead. Wait make that like 7 or 8 ways. I will pick the ones that show tails and sprout first also.

I guess if I had a smaller space and couldn't make clones I may use them.

Autos work for many, the rapid turn around, the early sexing. Grow whatever you see fit. After a decade of growing autos, I find waiting for photoperiods to sex or to finish, is at times, a test of patience.

Of course, we do successive planting starting every 25-30 days ....while some are finishing others are showing their sex traits....and reap about 7 harvests per season.

Guess it is all good the end....photos or autos.

Bottom line...good genetics provide great relief or social for many out there growing autos, as do photos.

I think its neat people grow autos but not having patience to sex photos is the strangest reason ive ever heard. You can sex them (and autos) with the flip of a switch so i would argue you can sex photos just as fast, or faster if a auto takes weeks to start flowering. If you wanted to you could even top it amd clone that, you could keep elite plants lomg term, i just dont see the advantage when they can both be sexed right away. Havent you ever seen a plant that was so amazing it was just wrong not to keep it, then not been able to keep it unless you constantly are cloning flowering cuts, revegging then all over again...

The advantage i see is in outdoor cultivation beating the falltime raids, or multi cropping for less work or constant supply, i could see filling in extra space in the veg room but i dont see the advantage of something that flowers randomly could even be in the seed plugs, or 4 feet tall ive seen quite a variety of reports. They seem unreliable to me.

Not a hate on autos i just dont get them personally as a main crop but if you enjoy them thats cool im not going to lie even though i dont like the autos id still grow some of yours over mighty mite...

To each their own, my friend.

Well, that's what I get for taking word of mouth over doing some homework.

I'm still a big fan of early finishing canadian/northern genetics. MOB is fantastic

I mean no disrespect, but can you germ a photo now and have a decent finish in late Oct if I started Aug 1? With autos, seeds r up for a few dayz n ready to transplant n will start 2 more batches evry 15 days finishing Oct-mid Nov.

Depends on your Latitude. Outdoor? Greenhouse?

But yes. They will just be smaller plants as they won't veg as long.
