Strains? I'm going through the same with my first autos. White Widow Auto and Vertigo. Healthy, tall as hell, pistils all over. No way either will be done near the claimed grow times.

60 day lemon by dna genetics, Fruit and cheese auto by dinafem, Pakistan ryder and el alquimista(not auto) Crazy figure that they would have forced bud really early like two three weeks.. now im on five weeks with hairs, just started getting stagger in the nodes and bud development.. My alquimista is my next gro im just veggin all they way thru my autos so i can top and clone the whole next crop.

I surrendered and moved the WWA into my flower room with the photos under HPS. 12/12 and she'll flower now. The Vertigo are stuck where they are under a 400 watt MH. 6 in a 22 gallon DWC make moving it a big deal.

My first and last autos.

Dinafem has a long Veg time on their auto's that I have seen (Critical Jack for me) and get about 4 to 5ft tall depending... I am betting its your Dinafem that is doing that correct?

Sounds like you guys have had bad luck with the strains chosen. THe pakistan ryder has always had good reviews from what i'v seen

My White Widow Auto is a meter tall this morning. 39" for rest of us. Not bad luck really as I was not counting on them as far as dates go. LOTS of side branching that the ends areas high as the top almost.

Man i wouldnt change the light cycle on them i did that for one day and they took almost a week to recover slowed down the grow rate alot.. Actually not just the dinafem its all of them they are getting up there in height i have each in 5 gal buckets so they can get a bigger root system and bigger buds. The dna Genetics are the ones that stayed "small" but they are unstable i think i have one catching up to the rest and one thats gonna out do anything in my garden two that are just "?"... changing light cycle will dramatically cut your harvest man.. id change it back the way you had it..

im not gonna call it bad luck yet! ill pull this off one way or another

it will still yeild nicly, ive grown out afew autos like double diesel ryder which got no bigger then 3ft(only have 300w of hps at the time,) a few pine apple express that only got 1.5ft tall that yeilded a lil over a half a plant. also was shorts time on all the ones ive grown, it could be genitics or just a mutent. i kind of want a 4-5ft auto and have it yeild a could oz, that would last me from harvest to harvest.

i will tell you this i will not do autos again.. ufos yes but thats it.. My reg plants get 10inches and get almost an oz dry when i scrog ya kno? this is just rediculous i really hope these fuckers flower for at least two month... at least... And if it works out that way four month autos are useful indoors how? they are not.. Go fem or reg seeds fuck autos! I really hope these things start blowing up.. Just give me 60-80 more days!!!!

These yeilds are acheivable with auto's mate, all they need is a good pot size enough light and leave them do their thing. I have found the afghan kush ryder a beast of an auto giving decent yeilds and bomb smoke... i attached a pic for ya..

Check this guy's out, he clearly had a decent pheno and knew how to grow a plant but come on you can't say that is'nt impressive for an auto ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBaqUXVDYd0

I work such long hours on my workdays I have little time to spend with them right now. She was sharing a tub with a 22 gallon DWC and the light was getting thin. Decided to pull the plug and make her do it. I am curious as to yield and will inform on m y thread in the Auto forums.

I'm with you. No more autos for me. I started the Vertigo because they were "55 days seed-to-weed". Never bought that and counted on 70 instead. Hell now I'll be lucky if they finish in 80. They are still at 20/4 lighting. However, these Vertigo DID start flowering as advertised without changing light schedules. They look good and smell good too!

C Thats not nicely i dont think, no offence by any means but i want at least an oz a plant

lol was looking at first page yeah i do understand and they do change without light cycle.. the one guy said something about afgan kush ryder not the same as pakistan ryder.. I ran across the aero garden vids few months ago cool but not for me.. ill do dwc but it will be a while b4 i actually can. i think yeilds are obtainable but you have to do some real work and spend money you really shouldnt have to givin you pick a diferent strain.. lucky to get one oune or lucky to get a half pound u do the math.. id rather tend to some good photos and only keep two to four rather than 8-12 autos. they are cool i will get more but not for indoor.. bunk you need them to flower when they say they are.. not just whenever they feel like it.

I have had one auto Blue Mystic revert back to photoperiod and got to a little over 4 feet. But she gave me beautiful, danky buds. She also flowered for over 4 months, just shy of 5 by a few days. I figured "fuck it" let her go long as i can, and she did. finished with another group of girls.

thats crazy never heard of such a thing. sounds pretty awesome.. im curious how she reverted back to photo are you sure she is an auto and not an early flower? What did she weigh out dry? Got pix of buds?

yeah never 55 days to weed from seed thats a hoax. photo periods possible but not with strains that bud when they feel like it lol

Had pics on another forum, but that site is closed down now. Started her in hydro and they DID NOT like that. Had a few others say the same thing.
Yeah they were autos direct from Nirvana. Got about 6 ounces off her + or - an oz. (been a while since)

The smoke was superb, far more indica than the others of the same batch.
Started them all in hydro and after about 3 weeks i said hell with this and put em in soil, and then they exploded with growth.
