nice plant. intersted in knowing more about how you grew it: what light/veg time/ bla blabla. did any of the seeds from that cross auto flower?
Hey dude. Yeah both of the parents were auto, in theory all offspring should auto as all of mine did. I grew those in 2 liter soda bottles with 20/4 150 Watt hps. Avg was about 10 g per plant. Decent for having 8 finish within 2 weeks of each other. Working on crossing my dinafem auto critical mass with a UK cheeseheads new York lemon diesel auto. Hopefully ill get diesel flavor with the mass yield. Keep in mind all these are f1's and probably fairly unstable. There were obviously 2 very differemy phenos in the (dinafem fruit automatic x short stuff bb kush) cross I did. But at any rate with sites charging 75 us dollars for 10 regular sex seeds, id rather do the only thing people should be trying to do these days, trying to be more self sufficient.
Ps. IM sure that the 2 liter soda bottles probably screwed my yield but I was doing a small dresser grow. And trying to keep stuff small. Thats why my plant was bent in the pic cause I lst'd it a bit.

bro i dont think your supost to give links to other marijuana forums! its cool if you want to try to start a thread on a.f but get members from RIU to hook up with!
This did not appear to be a link. To me this is giving credit to where he obtained his information.

I guess I should have looked at the date from the first page.....

But since I'm here I do have a question about autoflowers. I have all the time in the world (my home stash is full and a harvest coming in ten days)lot's of room and plan on starting 6 auto's this weekend. I'll have them in three gallon (US) pots. I want them to get as big as the strain will allow so I don't plan on training them at all. Will an autoflower produce the same amount of finished yield without topping or training or will I get more yield by weight if I train the plants?
This will be my first AF grow.

Majority of your auto's will not even come close to regular strain yields, no matter what you do the size of pot etc... now on another note, I have grown some auto's that have yielded what i consider good amounts, being 2-3 o's per plant. I had 1 do almost 5 o's, that was Super silver haze auto.... down side is that plant needs TONS of attention. I germed 15, grew 11, harvest 3 above 1.5 o per plant. very inconsistent plant. If you have time, and space etc... then do regular IMO. I use auto's to fill some space in grow room and get me some early harvest material between real harvests.

Do not top an auto! LST only is your best bet, maybe trim the very bottom sucker branches off if needed, that's it. Any trimming or topping will greatly reduce yield. Happy growing!

there's a short and a tall pheno.. the short one is super super frosty .. the bigger one not so much..
Thanks for your reply. I got plenty of height so not a problem. Good to see what I get. How was the yield for you and do you mind giving me a quick run down of how you grew it? Light? Soil or hydro? Thanks man. Happy growing

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Pandora from Paradise Seeds was outstanding. I've only grown a handful of autos but the two Pandora I grew out were beasts. Made Easy Ryder look like seedlings. I highly recommend it. Only regret is only planting 2 of the 3 seeds. :bigjoint:

I agree. I have 2 going now. This is the third time I've grown Pandora. Nice sweet taste.
