Outdoor Autos

I had wierd results outside last year with the Snowryder feminized variety from Sensi, it's nor a dwarf nor a "full" regular plant, somewhere in the middle, anyway, it's classified as an autoflowering strain. I planted them last year outside in mid May, they got way bigger than they were supposed to and showed no signs of autoflowering, I ended up chopping them, I did have one that matured in late September and the bud was great but I guess they got accustomed to a regulare photoperiod and didn't autoflower, whatever.
I can't talk about all strains but most of the auto-strains aren't stable yet. (especially nirvana seeds had this problem, you can read it all over forums)

Maybe your seed batch was unstable.. (last years?)

autos don't do bad outdoors, it's just they don't grow as big as they can indoors

growing outdoors is much more harder, especially if you are trying a guerilla remote grow =/

lots of thing that can ruin your grow/yield (slugs, deers, catterpillars, hunters, rippers etc.)

so if you have the chance growing autos indoors are easier than written

note: yes, don't start autos from seeds outdoors. start from pots, or face the consequences =/
do u have any experience behind this? cuz ive heard autos get even bigger outdoors than indoors.

im doing autos right now(lowryder2s and auto ak-47s) because in northern europe autos are very popular due to the short summer we have :S. i grow them like 3-4 weeks inside under hps and then gonna transplant them outside. my friend who i got the seeds from did the same thing last year and he had nothing but success.and why do you think that autos grow better indoors? no lamp replaces natural sun,i guess:D. and if i finish my grow then ill let you guys know how much it yielded :P.

Does anyone have any experience with autoflowers outdoors?? I just did indoor with haze auto from dinafem and yielded 70g's in 80 days with cfls.
Now i wanna try doing an outdoor.
I just purchased 3 fruit auto from dinafem, anyone grow this strain? it came with second generation haze autos, haven't decided if im gonna try to grow these cuz i dont want a couple hermies ruining my whole crop.
Thanks any input would be great
Whats up man just getting back into shit. Did you get 70 grams wet or dry? I also plan on growing and autoflower. Peace

It's always good to know. I think for my next grow I'm going all fox farm soil and nutes.
nice. this was my first experience with FF, i had only used miracle grow in the past.... i've learned my lesson lol
i really recommend FF, just follow the feeding schedule and u can't go wrong.

so a friend of mine is gonna start a few seeds for me, i don't have indoor grow space available.
i'm gonna have him start 3 Fruit Automatic Feminized from Dinafem.
i think im only let them be indoors for like 2 weeks tops. I want to minimize any risk of shock during the transfer outside

Been doing autos for years...mostly inside and some outside....some breeders are mush better with their genetics than others....my outside autos did well although a couple were attacked by pests....never a prob with inside....much easier....

Diavolo II. She is not ready yet though. I expect 2 oz dry from her. I have noticed that autos take longer to grow outside, but they smell so got damn good. Atleast this one does.

Hey everyone, it's nice to see a thread about auto's. I am currently growing 3 Lowrider Diesel Ryder auto's & 1 DNA Genetics Sour Cream. This is as outdoor grow and these pics are taken at day 15.

The 3 normal looking ones are the autos, check out the sour cream, lol
