I am new to the forum, but have been growing since legalization. May become a more active member soon, with grow journals and all!
This summer I grew autoflowers on a southern facing balcony and did okay. First round I grew a Fastbuds West Coast OG and a Pyramid Seeds Auto Anesthesia. Both started just before memorial day and finished late July. Auto Anesthesia grew funky, with almost all 3 or 4 finger leaves, grew to about 18 inches and would have probably yielded half an ounce of loose and airy but pretty frosty bud; but I threw it into the bubble hash pile. Fastbuds WCOG surprised me, getting pretty fat buds worth smoking, and yeilded almost 2 ounces (would have been over 2 ounces if it weren't for bud rot, which even in July, was an issue). If I had grown my legal limit of 6 plants, and they were all WCOG, I would have gotten somewhere.
Round 2 started late July as my other plants were finishing; hopefully I could bang out some autos before the bad weather hits, especially if these plants finish as quickly as my last ones. I planted 6 mephisto autoflowers, but lost 4 due to damping off due to august rains and poorly timed watering. The 2 survivors were a Beary White (a limited edition which is currently extinct; very successful indoor grow on this, but that's another story), and Blue Toof Special (recieved as a freebie). Both did decent, but not as well as WCOG in round 1, but about an ounce each, airy and slightly incomplete, but worth smoking. I harvested these at the end of September before forecast rains, fearing the beginning stages of bud rot would explode overnight.
I cannot wait for spring, when I will experiment with photos along with autos, and have ordered a bunch of seeds. I should have saved some shopping, I'm going to get bored when spring rolls around and I already have so many seeds. I got Dinafem Quick Critical + and Quick Kush (an og kush), which are new from Dinafem and are supposed to finish 1-2 weeks sooner than their respective standard versions. I have found absolutely no information regarding these strains except from Dinafem, and they are both 2018 releases, so I will have to document my progress here with those strains next season. I also ordered R-2 Poison and Stumbleweed from getaway mountain, which I had high hopes for, but after reading this whole thread, I'm starting to think/hope/pray these Dinafem Quick strains somehow outperform.
Does anyone know what they are growing next outdoor season? I am curious about any strain or technique to improve my chance of success next year, I put a lot of stock into local insight.
