New Grower Auto Sativa for cooler eastern Europe climate

[Reedroguez]

OMG! I can't believe you just said that :jaw:

Maybe early photos will do better than autos at 55N, since autos get stunned really easy and don't like transplants.
I suggest RoyalDane or some other strain by HybridsFromHell, also some canadian bred seeds would be better than any commercial autoflower seed.
Thai Passion by Lala(semi auto) is considered as very good for northern outdoor growers, this and many other northern strains can be found on seed heaven.
All you need is a couple of these packs, some big pots(or holes) and a bit of luck with everything else

Cheers

Thanks for reply mate. My current list look like this, what do you think?

Magnum (Buddha Seeds)
Biddy Early (Magus Genetics)
Tha Shiznit (Short Stuff)
Northern Light Automatic (Royal Queen Seeds)

 

[Balarama]

Cool, we'll see how they survive up there

Biddy early may be a good choice for a photo, by the way how does your average growing season look like? Good timing is most important.

 

[nesvarbu]

On average it looks like this

 

[FreeBee]

woah, thats gunna be quite tough pard!

Yeah this is not a easy one, looking at the daylight hours for where you are will not get to 12/12 to start flowering a photo till mid September start of October when your temps are seem to be quickly falling. I am not 100% on this and i hope someone will jump in but looking at the daylight hours and when temps are rising you should be able to run autos from mid May start of June and have it finish by early August, before temps and light starts dropping, but that also seems to be a very wet time so really cant be sure at all.

Either way here are the day lengths for 55N, hopefully with this along with the averages you supplied someone can recommend a strain and something that will work for you.

Indeed, as I understand he is Lithuanian, I'm as well so I wrote an answer in Lithuanian language, basically what I said it's pointless to gorw autos outside here, not enough sun mainly, and quite a bit hassle, because of climate might be too wet and it will start rot I grew 8 plants it grew so so, was able to smoke it but as I said it's better to do it indoors under lamps or in greenhouse at least.. But hey, it's still worth trying maybe this summer will be very dry and everything will work out, quite well. And to be honest from those 8 plants I got arround 350 grams, not a lot, when you do it proper way you can get same amount from one plant

 

[nesvarbu]

Thanks everyone who helped me with a right decisions. I've managed to cancel and replace them with a HFH strains. I think they will do the job! My only concern now is the vegetative state. Start them indoors or straight outdoors in the middle of May?

 

[andryszz]

Start indoors under lamps preferably, but if you ain't got em, use sun, when plants will become quite strong you can place them outside, but at least 2 weeks from seed is better to keep em indoors, because of wild animals, and bad weather witch is possible, when plants grow stronger they will be fine outdoors but quite short days still will be an issue.
