Hi all Was wondering if what the advertised finish times are accurate. Have seen some say that it takes longer than vendors reported finish times. Would love to hear from experienced auto growers. I am looking for a quick good yielding auto with a strong pain killing effect. I am looking at auto seeds trans Siberian right now but would love some input as this is my first time with autos. I will be growing in 2x4x5 tent with 400 watt in hydroponic + 12000 lums side lighting. This is my new micro grow setup. I grow with a friend at his home but wanted to have a grow in my room where I can drool over them everyday lol. I enjoy looking at them 10-20 Times a day lol. Anyway any Input would be greatly appreciated Tks and good growing.

Advertised finish times for autos are almost never right unless you want to harvest underdeveloped buds. My best advice is to add at least 2 weeks to what they say. Beyond that, just check your trichomes and your pistils and decide when it's done based on what you see, not what people who want your money tell you.

Im with nano, my autos usually run over breeders specs a few weeks, they are growing and making these stats in totally diff circumstances, however im growing a white cheese auto now from dinafem, they say 65 days and ill tell ya this thing has been a beast and may go 70 days? So its pretty close

I haven't had an auto go less than 12 weeks, usually 13 and I've grown quite a few! Go by the trichs, they never lie. Patience is always rewarded :-)

Watch closely at the end as some strains will start to push male flowers right out of the buds!

basically what everyone else says, NO
breeders lie, plants dont, expect 2-3 weeks extra from what the breeder tells you.

I think BlimBurn is the only grower I have seen who posts accurate grow times. Speed Seeds AK and BlimBurn AK seem to be both at the same exact stage in my tent (BlimBurn is bigger is the only difference) but Speed Seeds says theirs will be done in 65-70 days while BlimBurn has a more realistic number of 12 weeks on their description.
