I'm trying to plan my second outdoor grow here in GA. Im thinking about having my grow this year at my hunting club because I know a pretty good spot. But the other hunters will start to scout around during the end of summer/ begining of fall.

So long story short is im thinkin about plantin auto flowering plants so I can harvest before the deer hunters start nosen around.

Has anyone done this or knows a good thread?

I had a guerilla grow this past summer that went pretty well. I had bug and mold issues, but saved most of my crop. The problem was, it was bagseed, and as I later found out, they were sativas.

They took FOREVER to finish! I plan to put autos outside just like you, and for the same reasons.

'Can't wait for March! :leaf:

I tried growing auto flowering plants outdoors this year and it was a complete waste of time. They need a lot of light and cant handle heat very well. Of 10 seeds that I planted, only 3 plants made it to harvest and they werent any bigger than 4 inches. Maybe other people have had better luck growing them outdoors. Good luck.

If they only got 4 inches i think it was the grower. I did Auto Ak 47 outside this year i had plants that ranged from 1.5 ft-2.5ft. I put 3 plants in one 4 gallon container and had no problems. The auto's start off slow outside they do take longer then 70 days from seed i would give them about 90-100 they just seem to not start flowering until after like 30 days outdoors. My plants only got about 5 hrs of direct sunlight a day and i had some good results from the auto ak's. I averaged about 22 grams per plant although my biggest game me just under 2 oz's.

I think where I messed up was starting them in small containers and then once they showed their sex, I transplanted them into one gallon pots. They didnt seem to grow after that even with 7 hours of direct sunlight. I have some auto seeds left for next years attempt.

Start covering your plants late in the day and uncovering again after dark to get them to finish earlier.
