It is with great pleasure to announce my retirement from autoflowers. And as a goodbye to them I figure I will pop a bunch of autos and put them at a friends house were I am running a bunch of clones. I can't pop them all, too many, so I will gift the rest out to anyone interested.

Few things about this grow:

* They will be thrown into a photoperiod flowering room, only place I have extra space right now. So 12/12 from seed for all the autos.

* They will not be directly under any lights what so ever, just kinda off to the side of the room.

* They will be lucky to make it out of the solo cups I have, or maybe put them all in one big pot? Idk yet.

I just want to have a few grams off each plant to taste them. That's all. Not going for yield ayy all. My sole concentration is on my photo gardens now. After two years of growing autos I have had allot of fun and learned allot. Now I'm moving forward and taking everything more serious, including yield, potency, and my electric bill. I have a perpetual grow and the blueprint gives me yields every 3 weeks. I can't accomplish the amount of yield I get in under 10 weeks from most strains with autos

Also I am a naturalist, so no matter were I enter this game at, it's only natural I would end up with reg photoperiod seeds only, bread from only stable reg seeds. I am going 100 % organic. I will make several crosses and stabilize them over the next few years, and I am doing my crosses the long way, the right way. Will not breed with not one single fem plant. Absolute zero tolerance for that shit. There's far too many people as it is mudding up the gene pool with that silver shit and reversing sex then breeding with these plants. Then good folk like myself are stuck growing this bulls hit and catching a light predictable buzz.

Them days are over jack. My breed method will be a personalized version of a breeder named professor P. Anyone grown prof p, bodhi, sannie, gooey breeder, sonic, eskobar, well I'm looking to play with these folk genetics plus a few other good strains out there. But this is afn, I know yall not trying to hear my photo journeys lol

Anyway, we have some dumb ass sounding strain called 'purple haze auto' from .... oh, geno farm.. never ran any of there gear, this was a freebie, and I'm not expecting shit from it period. When I think purple haze, I think ace seeds old timers haze, rh e purple pheno, 20 weeks flowering type shit, yea that's purple haze. I don't know what these clowns were thinking selling an auto seed named after purple haze. Oh, 8 weeks from seed to flower lmao come on, this mmj market has gone to shit ladies and gentlemen. I was a newbie once, I fell for the BS... Not no more!!! And I'm not leaving my lights on for an extra 8 hours either, and pay all that money in electricity for not as taste weed, not as potent usually, and I can't train them how i like, I cant keep a mother plant if I like one.


Ok so purple haze (still chuckling about this one lol)

Think different.
Couple dragon crosses maybe
Couple mephisto gear.
I'll have to look see what I got.

Oh btw. Once my project is fully perpetual and flowing I will Def find room in the veg rom for a few mephisto gear but THAT'S IT.

I'm not leaving afn, I still pm a few ppl regularly on here plus I like to show off some pure gems in the photo section.

Everything expressed in this thread is MY OWN OPINION.. MY EXPERIENCE. .. no harm done, no negetivity. I just have a different outlook on my future with cannabis. I smoked some
ms universe x the cough few days back and I'm sorry, two years growing autos and no one can tell me they sell an autoflower that is as potent as the ms universe cross I had. No way period. I like comas lol

I'll get pics up tonight
 
Lmao, my wife said "your stupid" to me when she saw that lol

You know things make much more Sense stoned.
 
Here's the final selections:

• Think Different (dutch passion)
• Purple Haze auto (geno farm)
• Triangle kush x Alien og (mephisto)
• XXL Cheese (dinefem)

The XxL cheese is supposed to be a crazy insane yielder. Let's see how they do on 12\12 in solo cups lol

I have a ton of other autos but the rest our regs and I don't have the space for these, let alone a bunch of males.
 
Now here's the new Final selections:

* 3 Alien x Triangle fem (Mephisto)
* 1 Think Different fem (Dutch Passion)
* 3 Jet 47 regs (White widow x AK 47)
* 1 XxL Cheese (Dinefem)
* 1 Purple Haze auto fem lmao from Geno farm seeds. I no clue what is the genetic make up of this strain but I'm almost certain there's problem not a single purple haze strain used.

Here's a pic, most have popes soil. The one in the solo cup is the cheese. 3 seeds per pot. 12/12 light from seed. You can see they are shoved off to the back corner. Minimum lighting and even some nice breezy shady spots for them to relax in out of the sun :)
Oh and plus I loli pop some smaller under branches of the photos I have going and stuffed one of the smaller cuttings in the autoflower pot. Idk why. Why not.

GB, doing your own things is what this growing hobby is all about! I'm not as down on fems as you, but I do feel they are the breeder's tool to guarantee repeat sales.....and leaves a hand full of people controlling commercial genetics. Personally, I think they should ALL include regular versions of their strains.

and please explain to me how your going to save money growing 20 week Sativa's vs an auto????. I'll send ya the 5 bucks and and save ya the trouble.......lol!

And now you have inspired me to challenge your surmise that you'll be more productive growing photos. How about a auto that can produce 3-4 ounces, growing in a 2 gallon pot, in 60 days or less? I figure I could grow 9 in a 4x4 space and even with a 2.5oz average would be 22.5 ounces, and I know that can be easily exceeded. We'll see after I take the Dragon's blood to F5.

On a plant for plant basis, photos will win, no doubt. But IMO autos might just compete well on a production basis. Nope, you can't clone them, but you have to admit, plants from seed are better, and you can make enough seed from a single plant to grow for years.

Still, that's just me as you say, and I love seeing what works for you and that your working to perfect your growing skills, because in the end, that's what's important!

I might have access t an outdoor plot to grow in this year. Some C99 and some nice photo-period White Widow would be awesome!
Keep up the great work and excellent posts!

Ohh come on, give that Thai a chance to grow at least! a 1-2 gallon pot???

Thanks very much for the support pops, and thanks for always being a positive soul, even when I become a bit of an asshole, which I am well aware of lol bipolar sucks

I change my mind all the time on strains but honestly, I just feel comfortable with photos personally because I have so much more control with the veg period being flexible.

I agree about autos yielding. Trust me. Look at any one of my autos the only ones that yield less the 100 grams was the Russian Rocket Fuel from short stuff. Matter fact go to the short stuff seeds section and my test thread is like the second thread down easy to find and read the last three pages. Yielded massive amounts of buds and they were pretty and stinky and colorful and all that s*** but pops not one of them got me high and that's no joke bro I would not lie about that not one of them got me stone how I like to be stone not even one.
I may come off as arrogant or a know-it-all sometimes and I apologize for that but I just know what I like you know what I mean that's all and I respect everybody and their own methods and I would try any method that's out there I will try any method that you asked me to before I bashe and I promise you that I tried autoflower for 2 years I've grown photos a little bit here in there also and I just prefer them they're stronger in my experience and yield honestly is important but here lately it's more of a mental block that I'm getting over I'm out for quality now.
Then I very much enjoy the thought of a mother and keeping that same strain going of that photo. I really really love that that is available in nature that is so awesome like people have strains out of there well I should say mother plants out there that they've had since the 70's I mean come on that is crazy and unbelievable and I love lt.
And don't ever listen to me when I say I'm not growing autoflowers again cuz I promise you I will mephisto all up in my vag tent 24/7
