What is your light schedule? Do you run 18/6 or 12/12? Autos need a dark period to develop correctly. I usually get autos as freebies and run them along my regular strains on 12/12. Most people run 18/6 from what I've seen.
Give them a longer dark period and you will see better result. Autos differs a bit on how long dark period they need. Hope that helps.

Not true. Auto's will flower regardless of light schedule. I run mine 24 hours a day without issue. These are not autoflowers .. You have photoperiod. What you thought was them starting to flower was just the girls showing their sex.What is your light schedule? Do you run 18/6 or 12/12? Autos need a dark period to develop correctly.

Could this be because I’ve ran a photo alongside this grow so it flowered while these were growing so when light schedule went up to 18/6 with addition of new vegging photo is fucked with them?What is your light schedule?

Its because they are photo period..... Auto's doing their own thing, it doesn't matter what light cycle. So when you went back to 18/6 they stopped flowering. Auto's would have continued to flower.

I've had any many others had issues. Cannabis breeding and genetic makeup is not an exact science. The genetic pool is all mixed up. Some strain has more photoperiod genes than others.
Grapefruit is a good example. It will initiate flower on 18/6 but will not develop properly. It's a regular strain who needs 20h+ to stay in vegetative state.

They have different genetic makeup. People want everything to be absolute in todays society. Nature is more complex than that. You can only have a full auto with mixing two true auto strains. If you mix an Auto with a photoperiod strain you will get mixed gene pool. It takes a lot of backcrossing and inbreeding to stabilize the Auto genes through generations.

in the case of Automatics the vernalisation-genes actually should supercede the photoperiodic genes. if thats true as a result is actually at the responsibility of the breeder. Barney's Farm gets alot of shit from what I can gather... best to just report your findings to the relevant threads so other growers may be warned from that particular strain.

Barney's is like Clai Connection. Hermie city. If you get something not hermie it's usually solid, but that's when.

Why people insist on buying their stuff is beyond me. You should avoid them and Greenhouse seeds like the plague. Good breeders doesn't need advertising to stay "relevant".

So if more than one seed in the seed package doesn't autoflower you can likely assume the seedbank made a mistake in packaging and they will all be photo period. It's possible that a seed could be a genetic anomaly out of the bunch but I think it's pretty rare and to find 2 is really not likely. I've grown 100's and bred thousands of autoflowers for friends and family and not one has reverted back to it's photo period trait..

I’m not to happy with FastBuds. 3 outta 3 hermied or seeded. I may have ran them to long due to a family emergency I had to go quick and for 12 days.

Sweet Seeds should be in that list as well, but these are the 5 that really work with their stuff and not just make a randome auto for sale.
