Fastest Autoflower Available 2016

Hi I was wondering, what is the fastest autoflower anyone knows of?. I have seen a alleged 60 day from seed to harvest from DNA in the dam but I have seen 70/80 day claims before but then people have said it is more like 90/100.

I would like to throw an auto in my tent without changing the light schedule from 18/6 as I have one girl non-auto vegging and at the moment only one light.

In my experience autos almost never finish in the time frame the seed banks give. Bet on 2-4 weeks over.My fastest in recent years have been Dutch treat auto from mj seeds at 70 days and 2 fast 2 vast at 75 days. Do you have seperate veg and flower rooms?

Hi Majordueke, thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I don't have two tents, I am pretty new to the grow scene so I brought auto-fem (guy in shop said they were autos). I originally wanted auto-flower but in honesty it was probably a god thing for me to just get the auto-fem as I have learned a lot from my school boy errors.

Now however, my auto-fem is really getting nice and rather large and I would like to buy a second light and clone her before switching to flower. I have thrown a few questions in the LED (the one I have is a chepo mars hydro) thread but until I get some better understanding of what I am buying I thought the simplest thing would be to throw in an auto and I can leave the main girl vegging on the same light cycle.

Once I do that I may either consider a small vegging tent or make a compartment in the one I have or get a small auto tent and leave the girl vegging in the big tent and take clones and stick them in the smaller as and when, it just seems a shame after all this time and effort to flower the big girl (purple kush) and start from scratch.

Don't waste your time trying to clone your autos, it's not gonna work like photoperiod plants. You'll end up with a little bud on a stick that would have been better left on the plant. And if you are planning on having your auto in the same room as your photoperiod plant during the 12/12 flowering period you will really be extending the time for your autos to finish. An autofem is just a female auto, that's what you want.

I see, thanks Majorduke for the tips, so I guess just flip my lighting to 12/12 then and see how this girl goes. Time for me to make some more schoolboy errors .

Yep, those autos will grow in virtually any light. Fyi when you get another light or if you decide to run all autos I run mine on 20/4 or 24 on.

Cheers Majorduke, I ran the 18/6 as I read this was about minimum for autos-flowers. Still looking into a new light and will consider upping the light schedule after a first auto-flower run. Switched my girl over to 12/12 now, so if you see me crying in a few weeks you know why.

Try Fastbuds, they finish quick

Thanks PURPLEB3RRYKUSH, I will check them out.

They put those fast times like 64 days from seed cause a lot of people when they see pre flowers they assume they need to change to a bloom food , this is incorrect unless u just wanna quick harvest then do so , but I always let my autos go till stretch stops then add bloom nutes.. But yea most run longer then the shown dates , I did watch a guy on YouTube smoke some critical hog at I think day 60 ish and it looked killer but the yeild might not been there as he said he was just growing for the little smoke he needs... My critical hogs , jack47 , lsd25 and west coast og r all rated at like 65 ish days give or take from the seed bank

Mephisto Sour Crack is a fast one, with adequate light it will finish in 60 to 65 days consistently.

Transplanted autos (suppose to be uk cheese) from solo cup a week ago plants were tiny. (19 days) 28 today have quad in size and show no sign of pistol. (Sex) Ian I looking at photos? Plants are about a foot and bushy. Post pic later. Suppose to be 70 day harvest

I would say most autos that produce will be "done" at around 70-75 days. That being said some low ryder strains do finish a bit quicker but offer significantly less yield for just a few days quicker. Fast buds is a good company and within 80 days you'll have a more rewarding plant, "all good things come in time." Dutch Passion has a few nice autos also. Autos are coming and have come a long way in just the past few years. Having to buy seeds more often can be a bit tedious but the Strong Genetics in modern day autos are definitely worth it if you have the space and light. Stay up

I agree 100% and autos are amazing plants. Autofloweringseeds.com has one that claims 45 days but only yields about an oz. not worth the money going into it at that little. Forgot the name but I think there is more than one

The Heisenbergs I got going from them are less than 7 weeks and almost done. They can be seen in the comparison grow thread.

Buddha, not big Buddha. They have some really fast dwarf strains and some bigger strains that go about 70-75 days. Try their auto variety pack.

I think the op has confused a photo fem for auto fem. Like that the fem part also means its an auto.

Seriously ...you can try a single cola strain ( one large main ).
Auto Lemon , Sweetberry , auto iranian ( yes this is a real strain )

Never mind. Op has a photo growing and wants to add an auto and wants to know how the auto will handle 12/12 light.

You can put autos on 12/12. It will hurt the yield but not as bad if you do it after the stretch.
