Its true, maybe the strain is like that or the seeds didnt have much potential even if the strain was suposed to be better. The yield per plant is not bad but I think he had big but fluffy buds (correct me if Im wrong). I dont expect all strains to give super tight nugs but I expect a minium of tightness even with old school sativas if theyre bred properly. I think the problem he had is one I faced many times in the past while working with autos and the reason I quited growing autos, you never know what to expect of them unless you work with the same strains and same breeder once you find a couple of good strains (there's a lot of shit autos out there, there's also a few really good ones that can handle HST but I wouldnt be able to tell you which ones since I dont grow them anymore). Look at this one, looks like a monster but the buds were pure fluff because I toped it, and even though the breeder said it was okay it wasnt at all, I chose a 3 month auto that was suposed to be able to handle toping, not even with the extra time:

No signs of them being unhealthy or anything, it was looking promissing but when the buds ended developing I was very dissapointed. It was a nice smoke, not very strong but pleasant but it was gone quick. Matanuska auto.

Had the same with autos outdoor, very nice smell, great appearance and nose, more a softy high which didn't last long and fluffier. But to be said the feed wasn't heavy as I am ridin' inside.
Imo low rh% makes a difference.
Hard to archive in my country, also high light intensity and proper phosphorus rates leads to denser buds.

Oh, I get it bro. I’m not trying to be a dick or anything. I’m just doing it for the conversation, brother.
So your pre-treating your water before every feed or are you just dealing with the crazy swings that are coming from? I guess your water department?
