Sup everyone

I'm curious for those of you who are experienced growers and have harvested autoflowers in the past, WHAT are your favorite auto strains to grow?

Rep+ for those who can offer helpful advice :joint:

One Love

White dwarf is an excellent strain. Really easy to grow and a decent yield, 289 g dry bud off 5 plants. Recently tried greenhouse seeds, green o matic, decent smoke but incredibly pungent when growing, def need odor control with this strain, 162 g from 5 plants. Have tried the autos from royal queen seeds too, easy bud, quick none and royal automatic. Would not grow these again, really shit yield, and the smoke is ok but nothing that great.

I grew a batch of auto ak47s. I started small, 4 inch rockwool cubes under a 400W light, got a little under an ounce per plant; I've since gone to pro-mix in 8 inch pots and I would love to try a few beans in that to see how it grows. I used GH nutes and as long as it wasn't over 500 ppm the plants did fine; too much and they showed their displeasure quick. The smell was amazing and the smoke was pretty strong- I personally didn't think it was the strongest I had smoked but some of the people I shared it with said it was the best they had smoked. I'd recommend it to anyone, the biggest drawbacks on the autoflower plants is the inability to clone, but that doesn't really take away from the final product.

Awesome! Thank you very much for the recommendation, and I appreciate you sharing your final yields with me for comparison. That really makes it a much easier choice, as I was def looking for 2oz min on my plants. Although, it sounds like you're doing these autos indoor, correct? I'm looking at putting autos outdoors in April next year, and instead of doing one long ass grow like I did this year, I plan to do a quick auto flower grow in spring and then bust out the second outdoor phase in June. If you're pushing these to 2oz indoors, how much further in yield do you think I can get these girls genetically when grown outdoors? 3-4 oz should be easy, right? With 4 prob approaching my threshold?

Also, is White Dwarf a white widow cross with an auto? Sounds great. I have reg White Widow flowering in my current greenhouse garden =)

Thank you for the info! Much appreciated. That's a great point about the inability to clone! I considered that fact and figured it'd still be well worth it. It's not like I look to start growing autoflowers all the time. I'd just like to have this option so that I can plant my first outdoor cycle earlier than usual, get a mid summer harvest, and then replant for a larger & longer summer/fall outdoor grow with stuff like The Purps (cannabis cup winner), Hashplant (strongest commercial strain out there), Sour Diesel, and BrainWarp (Kali Sativa x AK47). I'll have all these strains going for their first cycle indoors this winter, can't wait to get them going! I'll start a new thread with pics when I do.

Yeah mate its got white widow in its genetics. Dunno about outdoor yields though. As far as i have read white dwarf is one of the highest yielding autos. I saw a grow in soft secrets and am sure they pulled 312 dry from 5 white dwarf plants. Now i have never tried this one, but big devil from sweet seeds is supposedly a huge yielder. Am sure the catalogue quotes 250g per plant.

Awesome, I'll check that out ... I have typically ordered from BCBudDepot.com and while they have a great selection of seeds, they only carry Lowryder #2 & 60 Day Wonder as far as autos. Sounds like I have much much more to choose from. Which seedbank would you suggest I order auto strains from? Hopefully they'll ship to the US. I noticed you're in Scotland. I'd love to visit your country sometime in the future!
 
Im loving reading this haha, I am just about finished on my autos right now! They are all seed crop autos and I only did 5 but they are dank and solid!
I bet in better conditions they could yeild huge. Idk what they are as they are from a local breeder up here and they are said to be LR2 originals. Smell is super dank and they are almost dripping in resin!

In my seed crops I do not feed the girls a single thing because I like to see how they perform with zero nutes and then when doing a real gro with them I will boost and bloom the fuck out of them. They are in 2 gallon pots also.

Awesome! I'm really excited to do my first autoflower grow. They should fit very nicely into my annual routine.

Do you have any recommendations for seedbanks that you've had success ordering from? Looking for a good autoflower selection, as well as one that ships to US.

Green-o-matic from the greenhouse

indoor/outdoor seed to bud in 7-8weeks, feminized.

all you need to know about autos is it doesnt really matter how much light they get they will grow.

all you need to know about the green-o-matic is that, thats shit stinks, its sticky icky icky ohhhhhhhh weeeeeeeeee and its a lovely smoke.

but go one the greenhouse website bud, pick and mix seeds.

I am going to look more into that strain, as well as the genetics of many others. My biggest goal will be to choose one that can yield 4oz/per outdoors. If there's a good selection of strains that will, I will naturally look for the strain with the highest THC content out of those. I'm gonna check the recommended seedbanks on this site and see what autos they offer. Hopefully I have a good offering to choose from and can put the most suitable strain for me to work!

Personally, Lowryder love smoking that shit '
I've read about Lowryder & Lowryder #2 ... Seems it's one of the earlier auto strains around and has been used to make some of the newer hybrids? I'll check it out, but personally I think I'll go with a new hybrid that has a bit more selective genetics. The AK47 autos sound great. I would LOVE to find a SourDiesel or G13 autoflower. Def gonna check that White Dwarf, too!
 
Thank you. The first autos I got were from Joint Doctor. I would order from the attitude seedbank or nirvana. I have used a couple others with success also.

As for the autos I have tried, I just had a seedcrop of 2 Auto Lemon Skunks that I am just smoking the last of the unseeded bud from it and the smoke was decent but her smell when growing was pungent. Pretty stoney stuff and there are 2 phenos I found and one is indica dom and one sativa dom. I wouldnt recommend them just yet as the yeild was very small on the first run through but out of the seed batch I will have to see what happens when I sprout her offspring for a better opinion.

Next the LR2.... well they are amazing, smell, taste, smoke. They are about done flowering and will be getting chopped in about 2-3 weeks or when the seeds seem to be finished. They also seem like they will produce a good amount of smoke even with it being a seed crop!

If you want you can check out my grow for visual reference.

I have ordered and growing Auto White Widow by LOWLIFE seeds,
bought a 5 pack from amnesiaseeds.com for my last grow
(they ship to US & Oz btw)

To be honest they were really easy to grow & very productive in terms
of yeild, I wasnt expecting to get half as much as I did. Ok its not the
strongest white widow ever but its well worth smoking in my opinion.
Too strong for me to smoke during the day anyway, but perfect for chilling
with the lads on a friday night!

Attitude seedbank all the way mate, they ship to the us. Pick the stealth shipping option. Huge selection from them. I order from them all the time and have never had a problem with them.

I will check your profile and threads to see some visuals of what you're talking about ... Thank you very much!

Awesome bro! I'm loving the suggestions that are rolling in. I will be checking all these out in a bit. Just finishing some stuff up before I do some seed researsh, as I'm gonna bust out the note pad and take notes on genetic makeup of all these strains so I can see what has been crossed to build these hybrids and trace back and look at all the characteristics. I think this will help me get a better understanding of all the strains, how they were developed, and what they are going to offer me yield, potency, structure, ...

Sweet man, I will def check that out. Thank you for the tip on stealth. Although, I think that's kinda bull**** they want to charge for that in the first place. I'd be stealth as a business like that out of respect for my customers, but I guess they're gonna try to make that dolla dolla bill anyway they can, huh? haha
