Got about 40 Autos in a greenhouse of which I will post a full report on in a few weeks once I've gotten a hold of a good enough camera, but til then I got a question if any of you guys could recommend some reading material regarding Autoflowers, specially interested in understanding intricate things regarding how Autos life timelines work, read a lot but haven't felt any site I've found has gone through it in a complex way, tried searching on forums but haven't really found anything either there, no doubt what I'm searching for is out there but thought I'd ask you guys for some help to speed up the search haha, thankful for any type of suggestion of a direction to where I can find deep info about these wonderful plants.
 
Frankly you won't find a better source for autoflower strains than right here on AFN. You will be very hard pressed to find better and or more in depth information than here. Sadly autoflowering strains are still a little of the red headed step child of the cannabis world. Years ago when breeders started to breed Siberian Ruderalis with standard photoperiod cannabis the end result was low yields and low quality. There is a huge stigma among phtotoperiod growers and that is still the case because they don't understand the simple concept of not needing to change their light schedule and because you can grow completely under 24 hours a day of light.. Also you will notice that even suppliers of nutes lack feeding charts regarding the needs of autoflowering strains. I just read last week that there is 1 company making a nute line for autos. Granted I don't recall what company that is. I have seen many grows fail because guys are using feed charts based off photoperiod strains. Today you will find growers with massive 1 pound + yields and 20%+ THC levels.

If you have specific questions please by all means ask away!

Dutch Pro has an auto specific line but it is just lower strength of their regular line.
