why did you have a bad experience with their genetics just curious because I have some but have not tried them yet everybody seems to be in agreement that they are one of the best

That's funny, around this forum at least theyre known as a herm factory haha... personally I didn't have herm issues with my BF strains but they were all disappointments, whether they were photos or autos. Just sad renditions of the strains they were supposed to be. Personally I think BF is riding their success from the early days of professional cannabis breeding and just haven't kept up with the times. There's dozens of breeders out of the US or Europe I'd pick over them.

Autos are extremely fast growing and producing up to 29% thc in 6-7 weeks. Thats very alluring to many folks, including myself. Especially when clones are not available and seed is the only way to go. They are also fairly less expensive, fun to experiment with, and very high quality if you buy the right genes

I'm not aware of any auto that goes from seed to full maturity in six to seven weeks you're more likely to run 12 weeks till completely finished

well that's a bummer I certainly hope this is not my experience I have some of their pineapple express in my stock. I also have some Cinderella Jack from Dutch Passion that is supposed to be a very very high THC yielding autoflower.Hopefully they wont let me down

My favorite seed banks are American. DC Seed Exchange is my 1st choice, The Seed Cellar and buying direct from RocBudinc and Mephisto. I highly recommend Wicked Pissah seeds from DC. These are incredible genetics at 35 bucks for a pack of 5

On the WickedPissah note I've had very mixed results... on the one hand, their Black Cherry Pebbles was the best quality bud I've gotten from any auto, period. On the other hand, their Sour Sheriff gave me one dud seed, two that damped off (which is usually user error but I've cracked hundreds of seeds over the last two years and lost 3. Two of them were these seeds) and the last one grew all crazy viney like then threw balls everywhere... and their 2020 mix pack was all males, which was surprising to say the least lol

One breeder that never gets mentioned that has been very good to me... Advanced Seeds. Their Auto Kaya 47s get huge for autos and the bud was pretty damn good.

Mephisto is still the best auto breeder I've used taking the whole picture into account, but I still want more. Got Ronin, Purple City Genetics, Binary Selections and RocBud on deck

Jeeesus. Did you contact them? Theyll make it right. Have you ever grown RocBudinc bud? This is my absolute favorite plant that Ive ever grown. Its beautiful too. Hes got a few passion punch seeds left and gives awesome freebies. I wont lie, as far as looks go? RocBudinc is schooling Mephisto. But ive yet to smoke. The seeds are 60 shipped for 5 plus freebies

I did actually but never got a response. But I know right when I reached out they had a huge mishap and lost a bunch of their breeding stock so I'm cutting them some slack. I'll probably give them another chance I just like to be open about my experiences with breeders. Like I said, their Black Cherry Pebbles is fantastic smoke... tastes just like fruity pebbles and the high has a complexity to it that is lacking in a lot of autos.

I have not grown RocBud yet, Im actually trying him on your recommendations from other threads lol. Still waiting for my order to arrive, will probably get one wet as soon as they arrive.

4 Assed Monkey is my favorite hands down. The Skywalker I have going right now has been a breeze to grow too but haven't smoked it yet. Forum Stomper x Forgotten Cookies was pretty kick ass but was a freebie so I don't think it's around anymore.

Northern Cheese Haze tastes amazing but the yield was disappointing. My Creme de La Chem hermied on me but I finished it outside and turned it into some fantastic hash, will probably take another crack at it later.

Im now weary to buy from fast buds. Ive see a ton of freak shows from them

Yes. Growing one now, Jack Herer original auto and it looks a little mutant. Had rounded leaves, no serrated edges. Not all but a few. Thought I'd just let it grow to see what it would do. It's growing ok but ever so often more of those weird leaves pop up. Curious about it and how good the smoke will be. First Fast buds I've grown.
