maybe its your growing environment or the seeds you have in paticular have gone dud from poor storage or something....?

I doubt that the environment would affect if they autoflowered or not. An autoflower plant should finish in the same amount of days if it has 1 hour of light a day or 24. And the seeds were fine. If they were stored poorly they wouldn't have germinated. They're just unstable genetics.

Wow didn't see that post before i replied. Those look nice and frosty! Wish mine autoflowered.... I would be smoking the ones I planted in July in a few weeks.

Hey sorry guys I was MIA for a little while.
Nice posts and great info on the Short Ryder DSB65!

I will post some more pics soon on a few more strains that have been reviewed.

I agree...i tried a single Flash speedy Gonzales and it is the best auto i have tried out of Easy Ryder, Short Ryder, RoadRunner, and one or two other little ones i cant remember....The Flash is still in flower at my buddys and absolutely sick with Crystals and grew faster than any plant in soil i have experience (keep in mind i am still what i would consider a beginner) so for me not knowing shit about mj and growing except what i have read and learned from trial and error i have raised this Speedy Gonzales with Fox Farm soil and ph water.Very vigorious!!!

i cant wait to try more of theres after this one!

I had to try twice to get good autos. The first time I bought Speedy Gonzales from Flash Seeds. Everyone do yourself a favor and DO NOT buy them. One one (out of three) germed and it grew enough bud for one bowl, under plenty of light (700w CFL, and 150W HPS). Short Stuff Seeds, in my experience (Snow Ryder and Auto-Assassin) is a great company, kick ass smoke, and good yields (between 1-2 oz off each of done right).

i am surprised about the Speedy Gonsales..i got a single from Attitude and it grew quicker and thicker than my wwidow i have it under a 400watt air cooled...now i am second guessing buying more because maybe i just got a lucky one good pheno out of the bunch

This is my first time doing Auto, and I have something called Kannabia Flash Auto... that's all they're described as. I've been growing a couple-three weeks and they appear hardy, but seeing Flash used in a different context above, I'm now wondering what the heck DNA I've got. I ordered through Attitude, but I guess the supplier to them was Kannabia. But Kannabia Seeds only calls this strain "Flash Auto". If anyone knows anymore, I'm curious. They seem to have a very short (7-8 weeks) ready time. Right now they don't even look like pot, they look like strawberries...

You talk a lot of crap. Let's see some pics of your crops.

Tried the Easy Rider and one Hindu Kush.
Beautiful and easy to grow.
Love the Christmas tree shape.
Here's my pic of the best of my two Easy Riders - This pic was taken at Day 55.:

I have a full grow journal on them.

This is my Hindu Kush:
Despite the small size I lik this, problem was me, not the plant.
I believe these auto's will be great for an outdoor discreet grow as they require very little nutrient effort.

Whats up fellas. I'm kinda new to this posting thing, however I have had three successfull years of outdoor grow. This year I decided to do something a little different and grow an auto indoors. I have been doing some searching for a good strain to see if indoor is really what I want to do. I decided on the short stuff seeds ONYX, even though I was'nt able to find a whole lot of info on it. I love the way it looked. I was hoping someone could let me know if this was a good choice or if I'm gonna be pissed. To all who respond thank you.

Autos are nice

I don't have any experience with ONYX, but this member showed some pics in another auto thread and it seems like it has some good phenos. Yielded pretty nicely too I'm gonna try this strain next season.

I have grown some of Short Stuff Seeds Mi5 strain and she grew quite beautiful, but the germ rates on the seeds my first go around were pretty shitty. This time it seems to be better.

only tried growing autos first time last year. i didn't even like the thought of such small plants but i gave a couple a go. i had 5 lowryder#2xak47-pure trash, small(tiny actually) molded outdoors from just the humidity, poor bud structure, poor yeild, smelled nice and thats about it for them never again
also grew 10 iranian autos- grew quite a nice size for being done so quick, dense nugs of great quality, super compact with low leaf to bud ratio. everyone loved these plants. i made a journal of them so you can check them out and it goes through all the ways i grew them. liked so much i got myself alot more for this year plus some crosses look for my journals on the crosses early spring.
first two pics of iranian second two of lowryder#2xak47. lots more pics in my journal on the iranians

Hey SmokiNasty I recently grew a single onyx plant and I had it hermi on me in the last few weeks. I have grown other autoflowering strains (Lowryder #2) with great success and satisfaction.

I enjoyed growing the onyx but it sucks when your plant goes hermi. Even though the onyx turned hermi it still has a good smoke. It gets me high as shit for being a hermi. (you can feel those white russian genetics when you blaze it

If you look at the original post read the second paragraph where SGS explains that many breeders have been releasing strains that are not yet stable. THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING AUTOFLOWERING GENETICS. just read the whole first post again its great information

short stuff is alright but IMO the joint doctor still offers the best autoflowering genetics. They may not be the most potent or best tasting but his plants have a reputation for being stable which IMO is more important than potency or yield or taste when I am selecting my genetis

I know you said you were planning on growing this inside but you did say that you are an outdoor grower. Im planning on growing a few Iranian Autoflowers by Dr. Greenthumb this summer with my outdoor crop. It is said that this is not the best autoflowering strain but it is also said that this strain performs better outside than any other autoflower. take a look at it, I feel like outdoor guys would love this one

Either way I hope this post helped and I hope you have better luck on your onyx grow than I did. I have been growing autoflowers along with my photo period plants for a few years so if you have any questions feel free to PM me and just ask.

Happy growing

iranian may not be the best becouse it isn't done in 60days flat. but i seriously can't see any other auto beating it in 60 days. iranian i do believe has no ruderalis in it. i may be wrong but i think i've heard that. fuck i liked them so much i went and got myself a bunch for this year. it is one good ass plant. and if everyone is so exited over lowryders them grow iranians and see what a joke lowryders truly are.

hey sodalite,

you are right Iranians do not have any ruderalis in them. I have done some research on the strain but I have never grown it. I believe that they begin to flower six weeks after you put them outside. I have no idea how this works but it seems like it allows for that crucial veg time that no autoflowers have.

Anyone know a good place to buy this strain cuz i know attitude doesnt carry it

dr.greenthumbs,he is the creator and sole seller of his seeds. which is a good thing best service in the buisiness.

so much money tho. its hard to devote 30% of your budget to seeds but I guess genetics are the most important thing to spend your money on...

Short Rider from Nirvana is pretty hit and miss. I've seen great ones, I've seen bad ones. Pretty unstable, IMO.

However, the smoke is good. And I agree with a previous poster -- definite lemon scent and taste. Potency is decent as well.

Has anyone here grown Speed Devil #2? It was a free AF that I received from Attitude.
Also, I do have a question about cold temps. It is cold in my garage and i'm trying to keep temp up by reducing air exchange. Can I put a small ceramic heater in my closet or will it make it to hot (possibly on a timer?)? My 600 is on 24/7 and I'm waiting for the plant to show sex, but not sure what will happen in the cold. Will AF produce if they are not in the 70-90 degree range?
