Hey this year are just started my autos outside.

My latitude had around 14.5 hours sunrise to sunset at planting time May 1 Solstice I get about 17 hours of light.

It would be nice to document strains that perform well with less than 18 hour light.

Here's autos in so far me.:

FB Pineapple Express: excellent large size

KB Swiss dream: poor small plants

DF Dinamed CBD: fair medium size

JEMS9 Lowryder, so small anyway, but some are tiny OK/good if you have seeds and do high density planting

MP grapey Walter: excellent, large and vigorous.

All began flower in less than 30 days, strong healthy stretch genetics I marked with the "excellent " rating.

Anyway..
It would be good to document which autos perform satisfactory with natural sun only.

(Starting second crop know.)

I’m pretty sure this uk cheese from humboldt seeds is not good for outdoor. Roughly 35 days since germination and showing pistils already on the top. This is my first run w autos. Unsure if pistils means the stretch is over like w photos?? Anyways I’d like to see more on this “experiment” dropping a tangerine dream today so I’ll keep it updated.

Fastbuds recommends their Tangimatic for outdoor grows as they say it grows big and yields well regardless of being grown indoors or out.

Swiss dream CBD were variable.
Here at 90 days this specimen has weak stems but, loaded with heavy thick buds, with decent frost for a cbd plant.

I would guess Mephisto Hubbabubbasmellascope would yield well. The biggest yielding autos will most likely yield the most in less than optimal conditions also.

Here's another couple Grapey Walter. These cracked post summer solstice, befor the 4th of July. So say 7 weeks. Not bad for the shortening days and cool nights of 48 latitude. Looks like it will be a frost monster come fall solstice.

Here's a HI Steaks a freebie from DCSE. Think the breeder is Greenworks collective?

This cracked after the 3rd week July. It looks good not flowering at this small size, unlike the SODK dropped at the same time.

Second crop CBD plants. Swiss Dream, is the heaviest. DINAMED CBD is smaller.
