I wouldn't touch Short rider, they wouldnt flower for me under 18 hours on. Had to go 12 and they were unimpressive in my opinion.

I just germed 5 out of 5 short riders yesterday, seem to be doing good so far, what type of light were you using dadderly?

I use 4 32 watt equiv cfl's 2 daylight 2 soft white and switch to 4 soft white after flowering begins. It was a year ago that I had troubles with the short rider so maybe the above poster has a point there, but for me personally it's hard to put out the money again on something you had issues with before. GL to you!

man i just grew 8 nirvana short riders this summer, it was my first grow and was very easy. The high is awesome, not too overpowering and a bit energetic, they taste awesome too.

Check my grow journal from my signature, i also have a smoke report there so that should tell you all you need to know!

Happy Growing! just to add: nirvanas autos DO autoflower, but the autoflowering starts when the plant is big enough ( has enough leaf nodes to carry the buds etc.) so it may not be precisely at x amount of weeks but when the plant is mature to flower, in my case it took in average 6 weeks ( i grew outdoors so that explains the longer time before autoflowering)
