does anybody here grow or have any info on autoflowers? Ive been seeing a lot more buzz about them lately and they peek my interest

advice from the guys at the sacred seed seed bank in toronto

autoflower are basically the shittiest weed there is, shwag that grows fast and is sold just for the purpose of making money,

if someone grows autoflower they are a cheap bastard

well this isnt exactly what was said, but the basically impression
 
^^ right. 8)

There are many different crosses out there now which has an autoflowering gene in it.

For a simpel example-

New York City Diesel X Lowryder.

Alot of breeders will only try to include the autoflowering genes when crossing a few different strains.

Example- Blueberry X Northern Lights X Lowryder.

Hell there are so many possibliltys.

Just these crosses I named now, no doubt they would be stronger then some 'normal' strains.

Also, for these genetics they dont come to cheap. And people who grow them arnt 'cheap' as you refered to. Some prefer to be running a large space(sog style) running HPS/MH for 24/7 over growing a couple 'normal' plants, to maximize space and you'se up all sq metres once they start growing.

I just noticed that you said some guys from a seed bank, I thought I read seed/cannabis forum. Mate go read some forums like Planet Skunk, and ICMAG and you'll see what the majority of folks believe about the auto's ;)

thanks brother and wel said my friend! I had a feeling that I would get bashed for mentioning autos. Why I do not know. They are really interesting and fun to grow. Im growing some Northern Lights auto now and they are beauuutifal plants and getting big and very healthy. I grew some of the AK-47/riders that you mentioned and pulled 3oz of each and my goodness it is some premo bud! do you grow them yourself?? if so what strians and style grow do you prefer??
 
I havnt grown them yet, mainly because im young and still in with the oldies.

My main projects are guerilla grows, growing far away in the bush away from thieves, though not far from Kangaroo's 8o
 
My favourite strain remains unidentified :(. Too bad, because if I knew what it was, I'd be using Cannabis more often than I do. Maybe you guys can help me at least isolate some strains... It was full of sticky white fluff, tiny leaves, no "skunk" smell whatsoever - more fruity, the smoke tasted like Nag Champa incense... never quite tasted anything like it. The high is 100% cereberal, yet no anxiety whatsoever. It was stimulating and very visual, and felt as though it was radiating/pulsating from the "third eye". It was also relaxing at the same time. The location is Southwestern Ontario, Canada. These effects were consistent with the whole 2g, unlike other weed that is unpredictable. I know it is not easy to ID from descriptions, but I thought I'd give it a shot :).

Otherwise, identified strains that I enjoyed (in order): Indian landrace (in India), Durban Poison, Haze, Jack Herrer (I guess I'm very old fashioned ;)). Also, most recently, Green Crack.

Strains I DISliked: Kush (I have no idea why many people love it so much), and most of the stuff on sale in this area, which is predominantly couchlock.

 
heys guys was looking for some help from you all. Im looking for a few differant strains that are have the 'uppty, stimulating, lets go do a project and work on it for hours' type of strain. I know that my start would be with the Sativas but which ones? Does anybody know of a couple ones that theyve used that gives this type of high? I love a couchlock once in awile but Im more of the active lets get shit done when Im high! Thanks
 
^ In my very limited experience, Durban Poison fits the bill.

^ What makes you not enjoy kush? You are the first person I know that doesn't enjoy it.

I found that it has an "attitude" if you know what I mean (it sort of feels forced), and I also found it too stupefying and anti-social. Anytime I'd smoke it with friends, I'd find we shut up and go to our own little worlds.
 
Hey Jamshyd, it is impossible to identify unknown strains. And people need to remember not every bud from the same strain will look the same.

The bud you smoked was mostly Sativa dominant by the sounds of the high, that's the best info I can give you on those buds.

Selfmeditaker - a couple potent Sativa's off the top of my head would be Kali Mist, Super Silver Haze, Nevilles Haze, Hawaiian Snow and if harvested a tad early, Trainwreck will be extremely mind blowing if grown out to perfection.
 
^ Thanks :). Figured so much... it is kinda like trying to figure out an unknown psychedelic.

Would you recommend any particular strains based on the description of the high and what I listed as likes and dislikes? Would be interesting to hear an informed opinion, as I am only familiar with the strains I listed above.

Btw, interesting you mention Lowryder crosses above. The reason I started checking out CD was because my friend and I discussed the possibility of trying to cultivate Lowryder-based strains in his area.

You'll find mostly Sativa's will give you that heady effect your looking for.

I grew out Hawaiian Snow this year outdoors, and the high was extremely heady and quite rushy. Also the other strains I mentioned in my post earlier should suit your needs aswell. I find with any strong Sativa the high to be quite psychedelic aswell, kinda like low dose shrooms.
 
Yeah Jamshyd that is good advice wise is giving. You probably didn't enjoy Kush very much because it is very indica dominant and it sounds like you seem to like sativa high's. I think Jack Herer is a good sativa personally.
 
Jamshyd, if you like Durban Poison, you might want to try Power Plant, it's based on South African genetics. I really enjoy Arjan's Hazes as well, damn good sativas
 
Jamshyd, Sour Diesel is a great hybrid that generally has more sativa traits. I find the high from sour diesel to be the most "social" than any other herb. Talkative for bout 1 hour and then you are sober, left wanting more. Sour diesel is awesome. It might also be what you are looking for to cultivate and cross with the Lowryder----now that I would love to try.
 
^ This one seems to be legendary... many people talk about it, yet it seems impossible to find (both as finished product or as seed).

Re: PP, this is not the first time someone recommends it to me. Definitely will keep a lookout for it.

One theory I have is that it isn't so much sativa that I like, but rather a high concentration of THCV in addition to THC. This would explain my liking both the Indian strains ("charas"... but that doesn't say much) and African ones.
 
^If you're looking for a high THCV content, the classic skunk #1 might be worth a look-see.
 
^ Are you serious!? The more you know...

Haha. Definitely will look into it. This one should be easy to find, and will prove if the THCV is indeed a crucial factor. Do you have any links for details on its and other strains cannabionoid contents?

Another reason I'm suspecting it is because it is apparently a cb antagonist, meaning that it probably modulates the action of THC such that the good effects are highlighted while the bad are mostly blocked. Just a theory though.

As an aside, it is funny how absorbing the world of cannabis is once you get into it. Before that Lowryder idea I was an occasional smoker at best. Now I find myself oogling over pics of plants and reading about all different strains... this in itself is kinda addictive. Must admit it is one of the most beautiful and fascinating plants that I can think of.
