Autoflowering Hybrids

[Canniboid Cowboy]

Has anyone else tried any Automatic Strains? I got some DieselRyder regular seeds from Jointdoctor.Out of the Ten seeds 7 germinated and then I had a spider mite attack and lost 6 of my seedlings.Thank the Cannabis gods!!The single survivor is a female just staring to flower.Gimmick Marketing,They should advertise 60-70 days from seedling to smoke and not from seed to smoke like they currently are advertising.

My DieeselRyder took 3-4 weeks in the seedling stage then grew vegative for 3-4 weeks and has just started to flower and is suppost to take 5-6 weeks.So I dont see how Auto Strains are any quicker than normal strains since they are not suitable to be cloned beacuase they are Day Neutral plants and Flower according to their Age of the Plant not the Light Cycle.I have Lowlife Auto AK47 and Auto Great White Shark im going to try next.

I done a few of the autos,,

Mostly Joint Doctors,,

Lowrider,Lowrider 2 and the the Low x AK47,,

Realy like the the low 2 and the low ak,,,

I do find they like an 18-20 hr llight regime though,,

Still all mine have done in 9 weeks start to finish,,

Had a few bad experiences with lowlife seeds and germination problems,,

So i dont touch them now,,

I know the DieselRyder takes the longest to Veg out of all the Joint Doctors Strains they advertise 3-4 weeks of growth before Flowering Starts How long did your seedlings take to mature? I had a spider mite attack that killed all but one and slowed down the growth,but at least she's a girl. I have some Lowlife ones I will have to see how they germinate.I have my Germination method down to a science and have been having great success rates,so ill know if they are crappy germing seeds.70%-80% germ rate should be acceptable for Regular seeds. There are new Autos from almost every company.Sweetseeds Dinafem ShortStuff Sagramantha and I see more and more all the time.

Everyone is coming out with Autoflowering Hybrids will GHSC follow the autotrend and make their own? Are automatics the future for Personal Growers,or are they diluting the gene pool with Ruderalis genetics.

Usualy the third week,,

But I've seen some start in two,,

And the low - ak seemed to get to it real quick,,

The autos are fun,,

Good for greenhouse crops in the uk,,

As you can get a couple of crops done through summer,,

I have tried LowLife's White Russian, Lemon Skunk, and Joint Dr's Sour Diesel. The White Russians I took to seed and now have 30-40 seeds. They are hard to germ, the hulls are hard as all get out, have to scuff them up. They do produce some real sleeper weed, grow short and look like lettuce until they bud up Mine have taken 9 weeks from seed finish and seem to be very stable.

The lemons stink up and draw the spider mites. They germ up well, can take up to 10 weeks, and produce a energetic high.

The SD can go from 7-9 weeks, and seem to produce 2 different phenotypes. A short, 6" fat bud, and a 12" multiple node with golf ball buds with up to 2 oz produced. Smells really good, high is excellent.

With the problems germing though I am looking to go with only fems from GHSC and clones, though the autos are cool to play with.
