Hey Stitch
so does Ruderalis actually originate in Mexico?
I've been growing Mi5 since early 2010 i think, and lowryder 2.0 > easy ryder before that. Short Stuff has been good to me, much respect stitch. Mi5 was one of the first great autos.
I'm not a huge JD fan, they didn't seem to treat mossy with much respect, and genetics were completely inconsistent from my experience at the time. I wonder if they mostly take other breeders stuff and put it under the JD name. I also doubt Nevil had anything to do with autos, maybe early flowering strains..but it seems clear to me that most major seedbanks don't get jack about autos. They see a massive demand growing but dont understand it themselves because they're in their own world. So they cross a few of their flagship strains with a Lowryder or "unknown ruderalis" (stolen from stitch? xD). They end up putting out small pathetic "auto" hybrids with long flowering time, low potency, and low production. they're thinking is "our other plants are so potent, auto's are so weak but the people want them so we'll make a couple.."
From the perspective of growing what you smoke, i realized something 3-4 years ago. Philosophy:
Autos are the future of cannabis.
95% of seed-banks are still clueless to this, and simply profit driven if they "bother" with autos.
Everyone knows how today's weed is not your parent's woodstock 4% thc weed. The past few decades have been a selective process of breeding in potency. Now because STRONG cannabis already exist in abundance, fewer people are treating cannabis breeding like they did in the 80s-90s. However a small group of breeders with a vision of the future are continuing this important breeding work with autos, which has been overlooked by most.
We know the more photo strains we breed back into the auto-flowering gene, and the more generations we stabilize the closer we get to achieving our goal. Autos have unlimited potential and everyone on this site keeps pushing the bar while proving that.
especially with the emergence of super autos, there will come a time when having a photo plant will be mostly pointless. In the future it there will be no difference between Auto OG Kush and OG KUSH, other than the photo-version taking a month or two longer to finish. It is something we see clear as day, but must manifest over time and generations.
Keeps it getting better, every year
