Hello, i just made my bed of cow manure, potting soil and bone meal and i'm waiting for the weather to stabilize so i can plant some seeds (hopefully on the first of june) but i'm not sure what type of seeds to use.

I have used autoflowers before but they usually only give 15-25 grams per plant.

I have heard about "semi-auto" seeds that flower in 16/8 light cycles but where can i get them and are they gonna yield more than 2 autoflowers?

Right around 1st june is when the temperature is right to plant but then the summer only lasts about 3 months before negative temperatures set in.

Thanks in advance

If you aren't starting them indoors, then I think you are stuck with autos at that latitude.... That said, there are definitely some autos that yield better than others.

This is the only other lead I have, a semi-auto.....not sure it would work for you but if you like making hash it might. You would definitely need to start it indoors.



Good luck!

Maybe Matanuska? I mean if it is adapted to alaska.....

Like Mils said, auto's may be your only root. I grew one last year outdoors, the weather was not kind to it, still made two ounces.

Can’t help much with seeds but you can get a couple weeks headstart indoors with a couple 100w leds or a flourescent shoplight. Led works better if you cut off the plastic lens like this

Purple kush, master kush, hindu kush, i say this bc these plants in nature grow in valleys at altitude were the grow season is short and nights are cold, up in N Maine we start plants early like now, we put out 2nd or 3rd week of june depending on size and chop mid sep, master kush, grandaddy purple, purple kush, S Afgani, all do well.
