I hear what your saying taking that long. I live in a small port area on the coast of Oregon. Well, rains start here almost like clock work, oct 1st. Humidity hits almost 95% and mold settles in. Seeing alot of genetics take atleast 8+ week flowering time, plants here won't finish till almost mid-Oct. Well goes to say, we get alot of bud rott here with people trying to give plants as long as possible. Even at 140 days you could get your harvest in early Sept and beat the rains. I have problems getting in well aclamated strains, newbies don't stand a chance without some help. The reason I haven't messed with alot of auto's is yield and plant numbers. I'm not to keen on keeping the plant numbers low, but the yield of 2 oz's most produce isn't worth my pot space. Don't get me wrong autos have come along ways quality ways and yield over the days when 'lowrider' came out, plants under 1/4 a oz were not uncommon. What they needed in my eyes was alittle longer veg time to up the yield. well, 90 days in perfect for my climate. I'm thinking about it for breeding stock to make some seeds for people that want to try growing, it is legal here to grow 4 plants per household for anyone medical or recreational. With this and planting April 1st people should be guaranteed to get a mature outdoor crop in barring total stupidity. As long as you got 3 good sunny months to flower with, it should work. Now if the weed's good............... thanks for the well wish. GL in your gardens and Keepem Green
