Been looking at auto flowers and need to know a few things before I take the leap . I have herd that autos are kinda stealthy because the smell isn't to pungent when they are flowering which is good for me cause I am moving in to an apartment . Also I was looking at herbies and if some one could recommend a strain and I want one that gets about 2 - 3 foot and u can at least get a oz or 2

Start reading and generating a foundation of knowledge so you can contextualize the answers you may receive.

From my research, I can tell you this:

1. Herbie's has a STELLAR reputation for service.
2. The expected mature height of the strains are listed in their stats.
3. The expected yield of the strains (if grown correctly) is listed in their stats.

Your question is somewhat vague as you don't express what other traits you are looking for
Speed of growth, Indica dominant, Sativa Dominant, flavor profile, CBD levels, THC levels, ease of care...all info needed to make an accurate suggestion.

Some strains emit way stronger smells than others.
You'll need to look into odor mitigation systems like carbon filters
and sealable grow tents...etc.

And if you aren't already, use this sub-site for Herbie's for Autos:

The auto's are just as stinky as a photo, nearly all the auto's can produce 1 - 2 o's easy if you have enough lumens and airflow, but I would recommend Dinafem Critical Jack Auto or Dinafem Critical+ Auto as their super easy to grow and finish fast. I also grow in an apartment, you will defineately need a carbon filter if you don't want comments from neighbors.

Best of luck with your venture

http://original-ssc.com/buy-autoflowering-seeds.html ... i use these guys all the time.. just had an order ship on the 20th was at my door in Boston on the 26th

you gutta do some research for auto's that don't smell.. everything i've grown has stunk!!!

and your not getting a lb off an auto pounder.. that's just crazy talk... but it's a nice plant to grow out.. most of them give you production in meters sq. not per plant..

all that being said you're better off getting carbon filters then try'n to chase down and limit yourself to low smell autos

Here's a newbs experience with Pandora, oh and by newb I mean first auto grow. Planted 5 in the first week of june in regular everyday soil mixed will some water retension stuff. They are in 10 gallon grow bags and not in direct sun but do get it full on for atleast 8hrs. I have 4 left, rabbit eat one, one is a mutant that wont become anything, two are doing real nice, and the last is a half runt lol. Keep in mind there was not a bunch of effort put into this. The first three weeks it rained every few days with no sun. I started to add bone and blood meal around the third week as they were slow to take off. As of yesterday the two biggest plants are 18"-2' tall and just starting to show preflowers, the half runt is maybe 10" tall and has little buds, haven't checked the other cause its a dud lol. I was expecting buds to start by now? It will be interesting to see how this all turns out for a no effort grow lol. If I do this next summer I will be starting them under lights and moving them after a couple of weeks. Think it'll give them a solid start. How long before the taller plants start to bud? I thought these were a 10 week plant? They better boots and saddles lol.

Just an update on the Pandora. The runt plant is almost ready with the hairs receding and crystals cloudy. I picked a small bud and dried it (no cure). Smoking it as I type this. Taste is not really a concern at this point as there is no cure but its a bit pungent lol. I'll get back to ya on taste lol. The two bigger plants are coming along nicely but are 11 weeks old so thought they'd be done, oh well. Buzz comes quick and pretty heady. Again there has been no cure yet so we'll see if it improves. My main reason for posting this is dont be in a rush!!

I planted Automaria II, an AutoAcid, and a Pandora at the beginning of June. The Automaria was the first to sprout, the biggest of three, and the Pandora the runt of the litter. Now it's the complete opposite. The Automaria has reached about 10 inches with a thick bud the length of the plant, the AutoAcid maybe 12 inches with a bud about half the length but still growing, and the Pandora is over 2 1/2ft, still growing and just starting to flower. I found a spider on the AutoAcid so I plucked it off. Now my fingers are super sticky and STINK!(a good stink that is !)it's a super lemony pine smell. Both the Automaria and AutoAcid are COVERED in trics. So I'm excited to see how it turns out. I wont be getting much off of these unfortunately but im so far pleased with my first grow. It'll be enoughto lastuntil mynext harvest that's already started. I've learned a lot!

if more then 1 or 2 full size plants then you'll need to get a real filter
if its just a plant or two then a DIY filter could work
