I never ran autos before. Never had much interest in them. But I had one as a freebie from another purchase. This thing was called Carmel Cream or something from Sweet Seeds.
So, I crack it for the hell of it and throw it in my veg tent. The little bitch grows to about 5 inches high and starts to flower ! No shit, the thing stops growing and starts flowering right then and there.
I't looks like it will pull in maybe a joint in harvest :)
Fuk 'em autos.

I grew one, think it was an ak47 or something. It grew like a mini banzai weed plant. Totally stunted. Tiny leaves and all. It finished as tall as a beer can.

It was actually pretty cool. A perfect micro plant.

But yeah. Fuck autos

Auto's are great if you only have one cab/tent and don't have a separate place you can clone/veg in. They will let you run a semi-perpetual in a single tent. They can be helpful.

On the other hand. They just don't have the size and vigor of a non-ruderalis. You have to remember, real ruderalis genos produce almost zero thc and grow like shit in the wild. We just found a use for the genes.

And as for them being finicky... that's a bad breeder. Ruderalis strains are, generally, actually tougher and more resilient than most sativas or indicas.

I'm running two Nirvana Short Ryder I had in the refrigerator for four years. They both popped nicely, and now at about 11 inches have shown hairs 29 days from emerging. They worked well the last time, four years ago.

I mean, I had no idea what this thing would do. All I know is my veg tents on 18-6 all the time. I figured that would work. I have no idea why, after just a couple of weeks it just started showing flowers and then it just stopped growing. The pics I see above certainly ran some sort of term to look like that.
On the other hand, I learned all I need to learn from autos :) Def not for me. They'll never be another one.

just using promix with no nutes since they would burn even at the slightest bit of nutes
im not using nutes either just letting them run to the end with water....after 8 weeks they had not gone into flower so i flipped them with the rest of my plants...recon i have another 6 weeks to go though...so much for autos being quicker lol...did your plants autoflower and if they did how many weeks in?

well they should be ready in seventy days total give or take a few more or less...i ran mine 24h for the first cpl weeks then 20/4 the rest of the time....i would give them some mollases when u water and it wil improve the crystal content i think a tbsp per gallon is the reccomended dose
