Problems with my auto feminized taiga

so heres the take... 12 weeks 10 femd taigas in 2 gal pots 460 w cfl. 3 oz dry. two plants in the back went hermi right over my fan and i didnt catch it till it was far too late so some is very seedy and even the ones that arent are still small and underdeveloped . smell is good, smoke is nothing to write home about. overall... this grow was like 7 days in a row.... week, really week. a waste of time money and electricity. im sticking with joint doctor from now on

Apparently there was a bad batch of those seeds, and can be replaced with a pack that is guaranteed to autoflower. contact DP.
Do u have pics?

from what i have grown i would only ever trust lowlife and lowryders to auto flower! they are 100% auto, all the other breeders seem to be jumping on the auto band wagon but havent put the grow time into the plants to get good genetics! ive done, nirvanas early special and short ryder, sensis snow ryder, lowryder, lowryder #2 and all the lowlifes apart from the full blueberry! although sensi do say it takes 6 to 8 weeks or 6 to 8 sets of true leaves before flowering will auto, it does happen eventually but some do and some dont auto! plus the sensi snow ryder is not a dwarf plant! if your after 100% garanteed auto flower stick to lowlife, lowryders or mdanzig! they are dwarfs but in good conditions can grow big with ok yields!

yeah ive had lkuck with lowlife but especially dopeseeds.com, ive grown the ak, diesel ryder, lr2, hindu kush and many many of the autoflower mix and have had good results with all those, got fucked on the taigas but i have been in correspondence with DP and they said theyr sending new seeds though i havent seen them yet (2 weeks)

absolute bollox stay well clear a quarter went herm and 10th week no flower contact dutch passion they say 48 hours of darkness then 12/12 well wat the fuk i cant 12/12 other strains in ther people seriosly stay well clear as for bad batch well then this must be another (if u want to belive that shit). stick to original af companys as dutch aint got a fukin billy and if u ask them anythig u get mabe,well and if. yes mine was original and yes i know wat im doin so take my word or not if u buy them u may aswel pull your trousers down and get fucked by dutch passion. dutch cankiss-ass

Dutch Passion Taiga = Total Suck! Very expensive, 80% failure rate and Attitude won't do anything about it. Last time I do business w/ Attitude or DP!

noooooooo this is not the news i wanted to hear about this strain, i was just in my local seed shop today and was looking at feminized dutch passion taiga and tundra and the mdanzigs blue streak/bluryder. I ended up only buying the non femmed blue streaks cuz i didnt have the coin on me to get some of the taiga's too, I was gonna go back next week to pick them up but i guess not. Iv grown one or two dutch passion strains in the past and was somewhat pleased with them but with all the people in here having the same problem I have to take your advice. Thanks for the heads up you saved me like $100.

i can... still no replacements as promised and no recent responses to emails

Hi all i have 5 taigas now 8 weeks and no flower!!!I contacted dutch passion to be told to FORCE FLOWER!!!!!!!They addmitted a problem with taigas and sent a new batch of 5 feminised seeds all i can do now is wait another 8 weeks and see what happens

it wont take another 8 weeks, like 5, 6 tops, but they get huge w/ so much veg time. u have to keep them in 12/12 till theyre done. watch out for hermi's. if i could do it again i would probably just fucking cut em and start new autos if you have them. the smoke sucked and it was seedy as fuck cuz of some unnoticed herms. they took up my entire grow space they were so big and the buds were pathetic. im in correspondence w/ jim from dope seeds trying to get replacements, since DP said oh sure u can have new ones, oh, u live where? oh no sorry we dont ship there... fuckers

Same problems here.....Taiga was an expensive waste of money, time and resources (security risk too because got so fucking big in outdoor grow). After complaining DP offered to send replacement seeds but they never followed through. They were supposed to send me a T shirt with my order too and never did. Fuck Taiga, Fuck Dutch Passion......I'll not do business with them again and suggest you don't either.

i finally got my replacements for the taigas.... like 7 months after my original grow.. they said i could pick any seeds and pay the difference so i did (pick) aqnd then after 2 more months they said they wouldnt ship to the us and to contact my distributor... thankfully JIM at dope-seeds.com followed through with my replacements and got them here super quick... ill be starting their blueberrry soon... they can go fuck their own ass if they think i was gonna want more taiga seeds. hopefully you dealt with a reliable dist. and they will send you your replacements.... i didnt think i would ever get mine

I am another person who had a failed Taiga grow. only 3/5 seeds germed, and out of those 3 plants 2 have already hermed The last plant is female, but has maybe 4 hairs on the entire plant.... Good thing there are some deisel ryders in my box or id have NOTHING!

Is it worth contacting attitude- will they do anything for me???

btw if i were you i would get rid of them, or it if you only have one left. they have to go into 12/12 so unless you have another space you'll have to wait till the dryders are done cuz you dont want to deprive them of light on 12.12. get rid of the taiga, the smoke sucked anyway, and get some replacements if u can... good luck

ive heard of alot of ppl having trouble with that strain, im staying clear from them..

i wouldnt trust the tundra either

I grow Taiga regularly, enjoy the smoke and have had no problems whatsoever.

somebody has to get the clean end of stick, ur the first my firend

Wow that sucks, on our first grow with White Dwarf and Lowryder/AK 47 Autoflowers and the White Dwarf started flowering at about 3 weeks (20/4 light cycle, no nutes)... so I don't know if you try autoflower again and want to go with an 8 week sort of strain you could try those... glad I read this, will stay away from the Taigas.
