I might be mistaken, but I feel like I recognize your picture from another forum. Someone posted it and gave you credit. That BBW isn't an auto, is she? Positive vibes...They definitely had me on a steep learning curve for awhile lol glad I switched to photos
Ladder for scale. A banana just wasn't going to cut it with that beast. Positive vibes...What's with the ladder? Removing a bird's nest?she is massive
yea its all straight up marketing... when I first started growing seriously I thought Autos would be great so I ordered some seeds, not only is the germination rate significantly lower, but the only one NL auto I have is just all around not really impressive. On top of that, I topped, trained, and flipped plants that are now in flower that are twice the size of this auto... I dont see the allure anymore, but still I will give these Strawberry Cheesecake a chance....The thing that's always made me wonder WTF about autos is that you can take photoperiod strains and start them at 12/12 from seed. They'll yield a relatively same amount as an auto but without rudi in there corrupting the gene pool.
Plus it would cost less to run since lights are only on for 12 hours/day and not 24/7.
Those two things alone make them obsolete to me but with predatory marketing, hijacking strain names, and newbies buying into all of it, the cycle of autos mucking up good pot just keeps going. ⚙
For me it’s total darkness period, but working on that ! And 12/12 almost from seed is the plan! Knowledge is power and we all start without it, unfortunately people take advantage of us stonersThe thing that's always made me wonder WTF about autos is that you can take photoperiod strains and start them at 12/12 from seed.

Wow ! Thats big....They definitely had me on a steep learning curve for awhile lol glad I switched to photos
thats what she said...Wow ! Thats big....
I agree, it depends on genetics. I've got some experience growing 12-12 from seed. I had some indicas that were ripe in 80 days and made 1/2 ounce. I've grown some sativas that took 6 months and made 1/2 pound.12/12 from seed works well with some plants and not so good with others. So I dont think 12/12 from seed with photos is a valid argument against autos.
And the actual breeding of the auto will determine the outcome. Some will suck some will be great like with anything.
None of these discussions have a yes or no, either/ or answer in my opinion.
