Hey I am looking to buy some northern light autos for next summer I live in the north east so I felt that with the weather it would be a good choice. Does anyone have experience growing this strain outdoors and if so what seed bank did you use? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Back some years ago a friend ran Nirvana northern lights auto outside 2 different summers. Lots of critique on Nirvana out there, but this auto strain has been one of the best out of many types attempted. Grow large, nice yield for an auto, and not bad smoke considering it is an auto. Disclaimer: can't speak to whether nirvana has kept up the quality of this auto as this was at least 3-4 years ago roughly

Don't wanna be that guy but you could def. get a photoperiod NL and do 12/12 from seed. Pretty much same amount of time and you'll likely yield more and with more quality product.

I did run some NL autos from Pyramid a few years back and they weren't bad though if you're set on autos. Really well priced as I remember. 30 for a 6 pack or something I ended up doing a 50 plant auto SOG and it was pretty quality for an auto.

After drying Yielded prob about 1/2 to 1 z per plant, and I know that's crap for reg beans, but based on output of many autos outdoors this was on the upper end. He had one outdoor that we couldn't remember what it was and we thought it might have been a reg plant given growth until we saw it budding so early. It really was a nice auto as autos go (which for me they all aren't worth it if you can run regs instead)

Well I was thinking autos in the spring and regs later in the year it frosts pretty early where I live so the spring autos would be a kind of insurance policy :p

Stay away from auto seeds, HUGE waste of time and effort, if you're not living in like northern Canada I am pretty sure you can grow cannabis outdoors using a photoperiod plant. I even know people that grow outdoors in Alaska the key is starting them inside and planting after the last frost of the year is done. You could grow some monsters that yield a few pounds instead of low quality auto's that yield an ounce or two at most.

Ran a cash crop (short stuff seeds) shes NL5 x Big Bud auto... bitch got huge in a 5g bubble bucket, great bud, hefty yield, over an oz of which I set aside just for oil making... I had to make this thing its own grow space cuz my veg area was 2 small, and it refused to stop growing....

She came out WAY frostier than I expected an auto to, was not muddled down by the ruderalis...
