Thank you sir and as i mentioned before i am here to bring out the truth of the autos as well as provide a place to share the info that we all have experienced. Good luck with the strains that you have listed. Would love to see a group shot some time.
Yes there are a few ways to tell a true auto. One is the flower time to light schedule. If a true auto is put into 24hrs of light or any light regimen it will show sex in about 2 weeks some sooner than others but in my experience its 2 weeks or less. Every auto i have popped and i mean every one has showed sex on or before the 2 week mark. There has not been a lapse in that at all.
You can top an auto but that comes back to the life time of them. If you top it it does have an impact on the plant, but it will recover. The only thing is that this will effect the final yield as it used the little veg time it had to "repair" its growth. Cloning is useless as the clones are the same "age" as the mother they came from. Autos work off of age rather than photo period to begin flower.
Looking good seems that you have done well with them and they like what you have done. about the trimming you should be fine as long as you left enough on the plant for it to recover. Usually in the last two weeks of growth i will remove a few fans early to allow the lower buds to get some light as i finish the flush. Things should balance out for you with them. Keep us updated on them

Glad that we could help. If you want a better leaf to calyx ratio get you hand on some LR#1 or #2 genetics and i promise you you'll be impressed.

Thanks crazytrain, I'll give it a go if she gets tall enough. Been nearly 3 weeks now and she's only 5 inches tall- is that normal?
I heard about the problems nirvana were having, I ordered my beans back in July so not sure if they'll be affected but i'll keep posting with updates on how she's doing. If she doesn't auto can I veg as long as I like then switch to 12/12 like a normal one?

hi been reading through this thread and wondered if i could post a pic 2 see if everything was "alright" with my auto? i've been on 20/4 for nearly 7 weeks but i've still got loads of fluffy budz, how long do you guys find the auto (its a bonkers) normaly take on adverage, just a rough time? it said 7-8 weeks on the pack but i'm thinking at least another 3-4 weeks? this is my 1st try at autos.
thanks in adavance,

Thanks FD, thats's reassuring to know. I'll ask the same question of you as i asked crazytrain, if my AF's don't flower (i bought them from Nirvana) should i just veg them for as long as i like and then switch them to 12/12? Also, is it worth going to 12/12 anyway if they start to show flowering or should i stick to 20/4?
Thanks in advance

Outdoor Pot..in pots..on the patio.
I found out "how to"..was dead impressed with meself...ha ha...
I'm cleaning the patio off...ready to jeyes fluid it..paint..then spark the grow cupboard up.
I want more of the Black-line DC F3's up for January/Feb to see if it is low light/cold induced colour.
Cheers my m8..most appreciated.
Beautiful spot for a smoke.
Very much like I have been seeing back in the UK...
with the leaves falling
but...
I didn't see much blue sky.
You took BudWider...I was wondering what you were toking...
I was on ALF#3 in the UK...sent in advance.
Worked well.
8 grammes in 4 days..and that was me on rations...
Before I grew my own..I was getting through an ounce every 4-6 weeks..
it was all I could afford..
now I couldn't afford my habit if I had to exist on bought bud.
Can we put the Hybrid info here....
it makes sense to have all the AF info together..so it is all in one thread...
or should we start another one for it..?
Get me toker photos Anon...purleese.......
I need to see photos of Canna worship...it is my religion.
Halloween is my canna-harvest festival night..
Bud altar...
incense...
candles..
bud selection the lot..
so I will be celebrating with you.
...in the glass house.With what..?

Totally depends on your climate/light levels.
If you drop below 10 hours of natural light..then ALL canna has a chance to hermie out...AF and long season.
Quick rule of thumb is to grow when you would put a tomato plant out.
I'm lucky because even when it is cold I have high light levels.
I've had them out @ 50 degrees Centigrade..down to air frost.
What off-season temps..light levels do you have..?

Awesome thread! Sub-ed for sure. Been trying to decide if I want to go auto or not. This thread just made up my mind...almost. One question I haven't had a straight answer to, and can't find: Can an auto be grown in an aero system similar to a StinkBud system, or are they more strictly for dirt? I already built the aero, but space is limited and I like the shorter period of auto. I can scrap the aero, but I've witnessed the excellerated growth it produces and would like to try.

Nice thread. I'm tired of the photoperiod people jumping on auto growers' nuts. If you don't like them, don't grow them. Here is my 60 Day Wonder. I'm in a party cup competition, so that's why she's still in there.
