Thanks for the Pic mate, she's looking great. Its really nice to see so many Beautiful ladies being grown outdoors in the U.K. I remember when I first started growing many moons ago how it was only a Pipe dream to be able to grow outdoors here but now with the advent of much better auto genetics we're now able to, Amazing stuff.

I didn't think about the rain we had, I csn imagine that it left your ladles very damp indeed, I bloody hate bud rot. I guess if you've got a few Auto seeds lying around and the garden to do it in then it's worth a blast.

Even better if you work reg autos here a few generations too i reckon if enough people do it we will get more mould resistant autos especially if people have the space to work some numbers by using natural selection to cull the weak eventually all you gonna have left is things that survive lol pretty much like the torture tests done with skunk thats all that needs done with autos for the uk climate just a shame about the current law holding everything back to a extent

This is a great idea and if all the U.K growers got on board perhaps we could have some wild strains growing full stop. Reminds of that Feed The Birds movement that was going on back a few years ago. I've always wondered why we don't have a wild cannabis species here, it's not like our weather is so bad that we couldn't have one growing here, it grows in places like Russia which in parts is bloody freezing. The closest we get is a shit ton of stinging nettles, lol. Regardless of our crappy marijuana laws if it was growing wild they wouldn't be able to eradicate every single plant.

Yeah but to maintain it like a landrace takes least a couple of thousand plants agreed its not impossible tho just takes time effort and the will

True enough and it would take a hell of a lot of time. Perhaps we just need to concentrate on one part of the U.K. at a time. We'll make the Country Green one County at a time, lol.

What autos did you find doing the best or is it semi autos you mainly planted out ?
If the question was for me, not sure? They are all autos apart from the afgooey, I think all the ‘super skunk auto’ from Dresden green diamond are tallest best growth along with the NL autos from seedsman if I remember correctly, the strawberry gg4 crosses all small, and the couple mephistos are doing okay. The newest I put in critical orange punch is doing well and all the sweet berry coughs are doing well. All the afgan crosses seem to work, I’d be happy with some of my photoperiod being that size. I remember the first auto I tried lowryder and your not joking about 2 foot tall. They have evolved a lot since then. This is the tallest of the lot it’s a a skunk 3 main tops, a few have topped themselfs I’ve not topped one!

Thats cool Id have thought the roof terrace would be more productive than your average garden long as aint shaded of course
the way the building is constructed i get a shade line that starts crossing the terrace around 2 and then in full shade by 6. So full sun most of the day. It has an L shaped wall so as the summer progresses the shade draws in from the side as well. Basically you are left with a small square of sun in the left corner...which is where I put our seating:)

and when its hot...its fukkinh super hot. I have had a thermo up near 50c in the direct sun last year. insane. watering the pots every 10 minutes lol....

Good evening men, I've been super ill most of this year, turns out I got Hyperparathyroidism, , try saying that after smoke, No real, try it lol. I thought I was going right off the nut. Pains in all my bones, dizzy spells, heart palpations, I was still eating the cookies, I was thinking it was them and someone was adding fucked up shizz to em. So tiered I was falling asleep after being up for 3 hours or so, wtf. Went Dr's, blood test in morning, sent off, hear back 3 days. 10pm same night Dr on phone, your calcium levels are seriously high, go straight to hospital, there expecting you. I went white and my arse fell out, I was mashed for a start. My Mrs boy was worried lol, anyway long short, in hospital 12 days, drips in me, different meds, I was like a fucking dart board. Waiting to have surgery to have my disease riddled glands out. Good news, I might get disability allowance! Lmao.
