New variety! Available from 1st January 2016!
Dutch Passion are proud to present the non-autoflowering version of the legendary Think Different. Think Different 12/12® was created by crossing Think Different AutoFem with a specially selected cutting of the Dutch Passion classic Power Plant® in the search of new AutoFem genetics. The first generation offspring, which is normally used for further breeding, was let flowering and gave surprisingly good results. When crossing an autoflowering variety with a traditional photoperiod variety, none of this offspring will be autoflowering. The Dutch Passion geneticists discovered that these non autoflowering plants, which carry the recessive autoflowering gene are significantly faster than their photoperiod parents.
Think Different 12/12® still needs a light impulse to start flowering, but grows bigger and taller in a faster way. With this feature it becomes possible to grow big, potent, photoperiod strains with almost the speed of an autoflower. Think Different 12/12® can be grown outdoors and indoors and will reach the height of a photoperiod strain, but will be ready to harvest a few weeks earlier. Think Different 12/12® inherited the overwhelming big yields from our classic strain Power Plant and is almost as fast and easy to grow as the legend Think Different.

So maybe some one who has done this could help me to as I am also just starting this journey. Should I try to save some pollen from my father auto plant and use it on the offspring to get it to auto again? I don't care to make it like the auto. I want my plant like the non auto. Can I just breed the offspring with the same auto strain later again but from a different plant? I want to make U-pink auto. If I should save pollen how is the best way to store it because I tried freezing some once and it did not hold up.
Well..
My dear chap.
Im afraid I'll have to tell you that freezing is the way to keep it for 6 months to one year.
But polem is very fragile and any increase in humidity kills it.
Thats why they call the breeder wamnabe's as polem chunkers, i guess.
I think you should keep polinizing the offspring with the auto father's polem. This would be a "back cross", after like 6 rounds of this procedure you should be achieving a good auto rate.
Mind about the gene pool, though.
As I would advice storing polem from two different fathers to increase the genetic variability.
This should describe what I mean, pay close attention:
Excellent! Please post your progress..

Thats not really the way to Breed propper Autos. Never Baccross the F1 outcome with the Autoflower Male thats rule number 1. Start a big bunch of the f 1 and take the ones that best resample the Photoperiod Plant. Automatic genes are Rezessive so the whole f1 generation is 100% heterozygot for Autoflower. Crossing theese together will result in 25% Autoflower Offspring. Select the best of the Autoflowering ones in the F2 and Breed to F3 and you will be fine with 100% Autoflowers that Dominate Reflect the Photoperiod Strain. If you backcross it in the F1 to the Autoflowering Male you will ed up with Crappy Autos that mostly resample the Ruderalis Genepool stuff you grow once and then simply forget because it is nothing special.
Ya Magic from the gene pool picture it looks like the F2 is were I start finding the auto I am looking for. Looks like I will have to keep a lot of the F1 seeds for a while so if after I get back to being full auto and don't like the out come I can start again. I got my timer today for my photo and my seeds are sprouted for my autos.
Hey Bud Wiser do you have any seeds sprouted yet? Ready to make some new strains? I am about 30 days out tell the pollen flies. Looks like we are going to answer some questions for people one here. There will be no mistake if it worked or not because the photo I am using is suppose to have vivid pink hairs. The last 2 I grew did so I hope I got another pink hair pheno to work with.
