imo any fem seed is better than an auto.
just as fast.
& w/o the ruderellis (spl) genes.
yuck !

man you really think so?? whats the point in an auto then? they just changed the genetics of the plant for no reason? just to yield less bud in the same amount of time? hmmm im not sure but i think not!! no offense bro.

the auto genes are about flower under any light cycle.
that's it bro.
fems are just as fast & photo period.
and no crap auto genes.

Pretty much a test run for me right now. I have 7 Greenpoint Kakalak Kush x Polar Bear OG, 2 GAS Nana Pie, and 1 Emerald Triangle Royal Purple Kush. The Polar Bear x, and the Nana pie have no available information other than info about their parents can be found. All regular seeds minus the RPK, it's a fem. All just babies right now. 100% germination on the Greenpoint and GAS seeds. 33% on the Emerald Triangle RPKs. Not good on those but previously I've had 100% with their seeds.

all mine are auto fem.... but for a regular feminised photo to be as fast as an auto you have to trick it in and out of its different stages of life... even so it still takes longer for the flowers to mature..

i could grab afghan kush in fems & be smoking my nugz faster than you.
explain to me how the flowers of any photo strain mature slower?
trick the plant how?
7 to 8 for afghan.
2 weeks veg.
70 days ish.
autos sux. i think they're the worst thing ever created for growers.
on top of all this, as an experiment, i grew auto amnesia, auto berry, and auto something or other from a spanish bank... all garbage.

im sorry to here about the bad luck man.. i just dont think 2 weeks of veg is enough... simply because the photo strain takes longer to grow... the more mass = more bud sites... more bud to develop = longer time till harvest.on only 2 weeks of veg i feel like all your plants will be less than a foot tall with one one or 2 bud sites maybe 5 grams wet so about 1 to 11/2 grams dry... but youve struck my curiosity what seed bank do you order the afghan from... i want to experiment.
also you cant run photos on 24 hour light cycle.... this is something i like about autos.... with photos you have to wait for veg to end and switch to flower by trick i mean change light cycle... even so i really think my 70 day old auto will out yield your 70 day afghan fem.... especially at only 2 weeks of veg... after an auto starts to flower (preflower) yo still see stem growth.... it grows tall and wider while if a photo shows any sign of flowers all growth goes to the bud..... but we can run the test together if you like.. we can order one auto seed and one photo seed and run them together to compare under the same time frame. same seed bank same strains you down?

I have smoked awhole lot of different autos and thought all but one sucked completely.
The only auto that didnt suck was an auto critical by female seeds. It started showing female around 2 weeks from seed and then took 10 weeks to finish from there. It finished at the exact same time as the other 3 non-auto strains finished.
Now, as I said the auto critical was actually pretty good, the best auto I have smoked. But it wasn't as good as any of the other 3 strains that I grew. So why grow something that mixes the worst possible type of marijuana (ruderalis)? When I can get much better buds (buzz type) and at most have a week or two difference in time? Also don't need to run 18 hours of light for 3 full months.
That isn't how it works. The plant will go through the stretch. Even if you go 12/12 from seed with a regular photo, it is going to stretch in the first few weeks in flowering. When I have ran 12/12 (which isnt often) I get about 2oz per plant depending on strain. Compared to about 2 1/2-3 oz per running 30 days of veg. The main reason I run 30 days in veg is to give me time to double top so I can get 6 to 8 colas instead of 1.

ill be looking out for your photos & contributions. ^
talk about it?
or be about it ?
and not at $20 for .8 like you pay.
right , grower?
always gotta be careful who u fuck with around here.
like the 10% purple peyote stow showed us , i grow & experiment & then toss non-keepers.
you got primo nugs, super quick pro turn around, & didnt pay a nickle ...& even made me wait way to long for the beans.
honestly, an opinion, last thing id EVER worry about... especially the deal you got from me.
ingrate.

they're called "bird seed".
just the nl x mazar.
i save them, all freebies, and pass them out to the needy when the stash grows fat.
you know.
nice things you do for people.
