Don't take this the wrong way, but the problem isn't the autoflower seeds or strains, it's the grower. Maybe keep honing your skills on photos were you can work on veg issues for longer then maybe come back to all those auto seeds you have stockpiled.

For accurate auto information, without the sneers and excuses, go to an auto forum thats FOR autos.
I've grown autos over 15 years....alongside photos...a well grown auto is as potent as a well grown photo. Any other opinions are from poor growers.

Or poor genetics. Rocbud produces the strongest auto bud I’ve tried so far. Think he is recovering from surgery and is coming back with a MAC auto!

That's what I've used them for to make sure of getting a harvest from outdoor grown before the weather turns to crap. They've worked fine for that but I was never impressed with the final product. I don't understand growing them indoors unless you're doing a staggered grow in one tent. I see many that basically grow them like they're growing photos indoors doing one grow at a time. If growing that way it doesn't really make sense to grow auto's since you might as well just flip the light when you want to start flowering and photos open the grower up to superior genetics.

the reason for growing them indoors is some of us are not lucky enuff to be born into or live in a climate that promotes outdoor grow so for that reason they are IMO brilliant..

How are they brilliant? They don't grow any better indoors than photos. All they do is flower on their own. I grow mostly indoors myself as I don't live in a climate that allows growing many of the strains I like. I fail to see the logic behind what you're saying.

Put light on timer. Switch timer to 12/12 when you want to flower your photoperiod plant. It's that simple. You seem to misunderstand what an autoflower is. It's merely a day neutral plant that will flower regardless of light hours. That's done by incorporating the ruderalis subspecies into the genetics through breeding to obtain the autoflowering trait. Ruderalis is lower in THC but may contain higher levels of CBD. It doesn't have any added benefit other than the autoflowering trait which gives less control to the grower.

I'm not trying to slam autoflowers but they don't do anything more than flower on their own without the need to change light cycles. They are well suited for outdoor grows in climates that are not conducive for standard photoperiod plants. Exactly the opposite of what you think.

Unless you are growing them in a veg tent or have one tent and do staggered grows meaning plants of different ages all growing at the same time there really isn't a good reason to grow them indoors. I know people do but I'll never understand why.

As far as them being brilliant for indoor grows, they are not except for a couple reasons which I pointed out.
