this is my 1st auto Don so not got any experience myself with these but on attitude it says grows between 50-75cm and its already 67cm at day 36, its supposed to finish in 75-90 days from seed but if it needs longer it will get it

After ages of research, think im gonna leave my master kush go 10 weeks, didnt relise how much fatening up iv got to catch up with, im week 8 the last monday that passed, so 2 weeks and im game. actually 12 days 3 hours 48 minutes. cmon im not that excited.

The auto i had, was auto NL freebie, stretched up to 1.5ft id say, stopped growing around 40 days i think, then flowered from day 30 to 7 weeks after that, it was meant to be done but it wasnt. and i fucked that one up. its shit when you get freebies, you nerver know the breeder so cant find specific harvest times.

I thought because they have realy fattened up, i thought it was gonna go 9, but just done some research and the phenotype that looks like mine goes from 9-10 weeks, usually 10 1/2 weeks is around peek harvest time.

and lookin at ur forearms u got growin i relised mine are like tooth picks.
fuckers gonna be smoked before it gets to 10 weeks lol,

now i understand why you gotta go to the shed, brother came in yesterday tellin me he could smell me smokin it all the way down 3 floors, now i gotta sit freezin my cunt off next to a winda

Ha ha its on its way my friend I've done a tulip for ya Lol.I smoke outside cuz of the kids but the smell is another issue u wanna smell our work van it permanently stinks of green lmao. Yeh the longer u leave em the better well to an extent 10 week sounds good tho man ;-)
Another thing is that u got a massive plant under a 400 I'm no expert but I don't think theyyl get huge anyways just because of sheer amount of bud but I'm sure the weight will still be there with all that mass lol

if an auto goes 6 months its simply isnt an auto , never was , simply put if its not doing what its ment its fucked up genetics , cant be grower error because its got to be a genetic issue

as for stretch hell yeah , cause they do , there just like any other plant but without a veg period , people mixing in hybrid or even sativa genetics means its bound to happen in some crosses , ill fess i have only grown a few cheese autos and the genetics were fuckin dire , one plant must have hit 4+ foot and yet it was lanky hell with bud sites miles from each other and managed to make sod all , oz and a half maybe of tasteless cheese looking but without the smell either , also as a final kick in the balls it had a degree of mold ( indoors multi grown under 4x600 ) , it robbed the decent plants of light , it was toss , thanks dinafem

but other than this a well grown auto with decent genetics to start with will be as strong and as tasty as any other top flight seed strain without question , yeah theres some so so or plain shit autos out there as there are soso and wank normal strains , however its wrong to assume there all poor , wrong or ignorant :hump: , its unfair to judge all autos by a small sample

as for growing them
indoors you can easily start any sativa strain off on 12/12 from the start , they will do there thing until week 3 when they will begin to flower as normal and go onto create a 2 foot plant ( or more ) knocking out between 1-2 oz , this is better in some ways that growing autos indoors as autos really require 18-6 so use more elec , some of this can be had back by the short flowering period of autos being the 2 months + a week or so depending , an 8 week flower will take around the 11 ..... ying and yang ,,,, autos however are a fuckin doddle to grow , its as simple as fresh decent soil , wait till you see hair before feeding , dont hit them too hard keeping ppm bellow 1200 and you simply cant fuck it up , no staking , no training , no dicking about just water say 10 times and chop

so although indoors they do there thing fast and enable crops between inspections theres better yields to be had with regular , however if you run a veg and flower room you can get a crop out of that veg room , between waiting for the fregs to be done you can easily get a grow in or even just bang a couple into a corner and ignore , this is cant be ignored , anyone who says autos are toss then simply show me a crop from your veg room and ill shut up , until then ...... this is the veg room

outdoors well you require a degree of luck , weather and temps make the difference , numbers make up for this at least so its possible , ive had a crop in april before outdoors but with the 4 degrees its to be tonight then forget it , as long as you get decent direct sunlight all day and the temps hover around the 15 then your in for a nice crop for sure , yields wont be anything to shout about but dont let that put you off , just scatter the country with the little wee bastards and enjoy the spoils knowing no-one else is able to get such an early outdoor crop
