That is sweet packaging!
Yeah I like it. I always pay for the original packaging option. I like to be sure I am getting what I pay for. I find it interesting to check out all the different breeders ways for packaging their product.
... perfect timing! I can clear the veg gals just in time .

Oh boy.....Green house too eh lol. He probably hunted those down on the mean streets of Buffalo lmao. I watched a documentary on them strain hunting Limon and Colombian Gold yesterday......lucky bastards!So got my dirty paws on these.......time is getting close.
My kings kush CBD were Green house. 5/5 on germination.
Stank, no subbing a Nukehead in while we're not watching.

I was wondering if it would be possible to flux an auto, or would the genetics make it prone for stressing and herming?
I think the problem with an auto would more be the limited amount of time u have to get it into shape bf it starts flowering.

Bigger, deeper pot like Flys might help slow things down a bit. Isn't the auto "trigger" a taproot touching plastic?!
As far as I know, healthy autos are strictly triggered by time as opposed to anything environmental.

I know it's the Ruderalis gene....somewhere in 7 months of reading I heard it.....where....yeah exactly lol.
There is a lot of debate on that. As someone who has never grown an auto (for now) I don't have any first hand experience, but seems like many people have an opinion that its based on tap roots hitting the bottom of the cup Would explain why people that grow in extremely small containers have plants that flower so quickly. Could it be stress that causes the early flower....sure. But I think this grow would go a long ways to actually answering this question. Those taller pots could be the key or they could be meaningless. Lets find out!!
I am thinking of growing in 7 gallon pot with my Stank Soil. Biggest issue for me will be starting and growing it the whole time in the 7 gallon pots....I have never not transplanted. I hear that transplanting isn't good for Autos. No sense in giving you Canadians any unnecessary chance in this thing LOL!!
Right, who can remember where we read everything we think we remember!
I had two auto blueberries going at the same time, one in a much deeper pot than the other. They both showed pistils at the same number of days.

On a side note, I am making a spread sheet with those American growers that will be participating. Right now I have Dabber, InTheShed, myself, and Illizm.....am I am missing any Americans that will be joining us on this adventure. PM me with your info if you will be growing along with us.
That's an interesting concept and why I included "healthy" in my description. I had heat-stessed autos go into flower at 4" tall, creating the first SPOG®. And I plant my autos directly into 7 gallon smart pots and they do fine when it's not 95º! I soak the whole pot before I put the peat puck in and then don't water until it starts to dry out. Takes almost a week.
Yeah arctic bowl transplanted his autos from CKS on his first grow. I know lots of people say when the tap root hits bottom they flower? No clue. But I AM excited to grow this MoFo!
Its tough and everyone has their own opinion. Its one of the reasons I love to experiment so much when i grow. I like to try different things and see if they make any difference to the end result. A closed mind never helped make anything better. I might be skeptical about some things, but I will never rule something out without trying it.

There's lots of good information out there on autos. How to grow, genetics, anything you want to know.

I think you guys are looking at my pots from a different angle than me. As far as I know, the ruderalis's flowering is nature, not nurture - it flowers when it flowers. What I want to nurture is the root system by preventing plants from getting root-bound, and hopefully in the doing, work toward maximizing growing conditions in a small space.
Whether or not it's making a difference, and if so how much, I'm not sure yet. When I know, you'll know, you know?

I love to experiment too, but my lack of patience makes hard to do things in a controlled manner haha. But you're right, man - you can't be closed minded.
