ruderalis is a strain sensi seeds has made crosses with , for at least 10 years now i think

but the other statements i agree with

autoflowering is a trait to be cherished more.

it is a way to pull a top crop out of season .

autoflowerings allow you to grow all your crop outdoors= great!

only...like you said... the high just isnt there...YET:)

i wouldent mind trying some but it would have to be outdoors 20 hours of light they recon right though the grow is best if growing under lights.plus the pot space you are going to use same as growing normal plants 6 and a half litre min and they only finish a couple of weeks before you could get a normal grow finished say 3 weeks later and double or treble what you would get from autos and use less electric if growing outdoors they could be ok for a smoke while you are waiting for your main crop to finish indoors i just dont think its worth growing them.ferret

[the ferret]

i also hear that because autos are so small and close to the ground they are bad for rot i am not slagging them off as i haver never grown them its only what i have read.plus the seeds seem expensive if you wanted short plants that were not so hard to spot you could always take cuttings off a female plant later in the year if growing outdoors.just an idea and a lot cheaper.ferret

guy in the grow shop the other day was telling me about a company whos name i cant remember doing non-lowryder auto's that finish about 4 feet tall..... dunno if anyone knows anything about this but interesting for people such as myself with not alot of space.

i think some people on here are more concerned about the auto gene being crossbred over to all kinds of strains (exactly what were talking about here)

if the gene gets crossbred it means auto bud for us, that has the potential to be much bigger and stronger (depending on strain)

on the other hand, if its done to such extent that you couldnt buy the un-auto'ed strain then all we'd have is auto crossed with everything.

though im sure people were reacting the same when femmed beans came out, so each to their own.

i myself, am doing a seed run with LR#2 at the moment (18 hours with 3 normal strains vegging, by the time lr#2's are done the veg'ed plants will be huge and ready for flower) and in the future, if i decide to, could cross some over with a low odor strain like hash passion and even get em in the greenhouse (cuz LR#2 fuckin stinks B) )

each to their own, now i need some bong hits cuz all this writings making me dizzy

[scraglor]

they're a pointless and expensive option for indoor grows. good for outdoors in the uk though, means you can flower em during summer rather than sept/oct when the weathers just turning shit when you need it most. other than that one scenario, a waste of time

[Arnold Layne]

I'm with Owderb. Things are to be avoided. They just money making toys for rich seed sellers. Nowt more. IMHO, of course.
Get a decent strain. Mother it, clone it, bobs yer lobster.
Ditchweed belongs in ditches.

I have some AKkush on the go at the mo in a little drobe for some seed for the summer. Im reserving my judgement for when they are finished but i am quietly confident that they should be quite nice and we'll see how they get on outdoors.

I feel now that you are better off with a normal strain for indoors but if you have only the choice of the sun then i would deffinately have them as part of my arsenal with some regular plants for the proper harvest at the end of the year. The new DP autos look interesting with their purple outdoor strain but they only do fems which is a bit shit if you want seeds coz you cant clone them!

Take no notice of the nay sayers, autos are alright for people that cant commit to a long term grow, there good for outdoor garden grows and the new strains of late have a good high, some of the negative comments about autos are from people that have only tried the original lowryder that was quite frankly piss poor..

From seed to harvest in 9 weeks, whats not to like?

Hi there,
I thought I'd pipe in on this.I am doing a seed run with two Breeders Choice
Affy/Diesel Ryder and hope to get seeds. I like them for what they are.There is
a lot of people who like them and don't My female is pretty bushy for under
4 weeks. I have regular strains goin but the Lows have there place in my book.
If I end up with good seeds, I will try them outside this summer. Anyway...
that's my two pennies worth.
