I read the description and it says it does very well in colder temps, its cold there right? It also says it has a strong fruit odor.
here is the description from the tude:
Dinafem Seeds Grapefruit is a very pretty plant with splendid autumn shades. It is very productive, has a great flavour and convincing effect; anyone would love to have it in their garden. So Dinafem decided to start a new automatic strain of Grapefruit that would allow us to enjoy a fruity taste in the middle of summer without too many complications. The result is Fruit Automatic, an automatic strain that includes Grapefruit genetics in order to achieve more flavour, resin and production as well as a more intense effect. In addition, it is larger than other automatics and flowers in only 60 days after germination takes place -65 at the most- producing abundant sweet-smelling resin, dense plants with thick Indica leaves, and buds as sticky as honey. It seems to produce the strange tendency among humans to want to smell them up close. They believe this is due to the fact that the combination of thick glittering crystals of resin and the smell that this plant emits makes it irresistable to cannabis cultivators and enthusiasts. It is a variety that stands cold weather fairly well so we recommend planting towards the last week of May in order to harvest the last week of July, and in this way achieve unbeatable results.
it is cold man but i grow mine inside temps are 80f lights on 60f lights off,ive been readin good reviews about this strain so thanks again for hookin me up,its a pity ya dont live here man i would b more than happy ta let ya smoke some when shes ready.....btw man i love your growbox great job...looks way better than the tents

No biggie man I like to hook people up and get different strains going around the world, hope it is fire, grapefruit is a very well known strain all over the west coast and is used in many crosses for the fruit smell it puts off and its potency. Thanks about my cab I'm very happy with the way it turned out, tents are really good for blocking the light out. With cabs you have to do some taping to get it totally light leak free but its not a big deal.it is cold man but i grow mine inside temps are 80f lights on 60f lights off,ive been readin good reviews about this strain so thanks again for hookin me up,its a pity ya dont live here man i would b more than happy ta let ya smoke some when shes ready.....btw man i love your growbox great job...looks way better than the tents

the last pic is a close up of the wappa read good reviews about this one aswell
Wow. That fruit auto took off, very nice and you are very welcome my friend. Also they look very healthy which tells me you are doing it right but I'm sure this isn't your first rodeo. The fruit auto has a nice sativa structure, plenty of space between nodes would be good for topping but then you would have an even wilder bushy bitch. The wappa has a beautiful fat indica leaf structure, nice and uniform and you should get a better yield, but you should get good yields from both if you're patient and let them go until the trichromes start to turn amber on both plants. Looks like you topped the wappa, hell you could have topped the fruit as well. You are going to have some tight rock buds on that wappa, be careful when growing an indy dominant you can get mold but if the temps and humidity aren't that bad and you have good airflow you shouldn't have any problems but if you do green cure works awesome!
I can't remember what else did you get? I tried to be fair to all I hooked up with the same amounts. At least the wappa is a fem so no worries of males screwing ur grow up!
green cure:
its description of what it does:GreenCure® is the environmentally friendly fungicide that has been proven to cure and prevent powdery mildew, black spot, downy mildew, blights, molds and other plant diseases.
GreenCure fungicide is recommended for use on over 150 different flowers, trees, houseplants, fruits, vegetables, and turfs.
Unlike many fungicides, GreenCure is not a toxic chemical. Its active ingredient, potassium bicarbonate, is commonly used in food products and is "generally recognized as safe" by the FDA and is seen as an alternative to other fungicides by the EPA.

@marley: you can also use this as a preventative @ first signs of problems (it stinks like ass though, I wouldn't use it while the plant is in flower): I personally haven't had to use either but I have them on hand just incase!

here a few pics of the BCN Diesel Auto by Kannabia seeds I grew and it was a beast as well took up my entire cab:
It has a similar in structure to your fruit having that sativa structure and it was sative dom nice and potent, it smelled of fuel and terpine tine which makes sense being a diesel strain! In the pics the plant is about 2 weeks from harvest.

It should be ok if you intend on growing organically, the soil will buffer all the crap in your water but cleaner is better. Maybe something cheap like a brita filter would be enough to soften up your water enough.

whats going on lamaaror? You like the MFLB (magic flight launch box)? I had one and sold it when I bought the arizer solo which f'n awesome great vape clouds and taste oh so good, its a portable:

Yeah the MFLB served me well for a past 2 years or so, but I moved up to an arizer extreme Q, the desktop one. The solo looks like an improvement over the MFLB which was just a pain to clean once she got gunked up full of resin. Can you vape hash and oils in there as well? I must say Arizer are a quality brand, 25 year warranty on the heating element in the vape (which is all the vape really is)
thanks md,i was gonna top the fruit auto but didn bother cause its a auto,i didn top the wappa either im jus gonna leave it,shes gonna b massive as it is hopin too get at least 5 zips off her,the fruit auto has lovely sativa leaves and a nice fruity smell shes nearly ready for a week of pk13/14 hopin ta see a bud explosion.the wappa hasnt shown her sex yet hopefully nex week.
you sent me some nice beans man,the grapegod ya sent me is gonna b my nex grow,i was lookin up the grapegod an the beans ya sent would of cost me over 100e thats not countin the rest,much appreciated my friend your a gent.

Hello folks! Id like to start off by saying how great it is that there are likeminded Irish men and women here who have gone towards the green thumb direction 
Like many of you i have refused to continue buying mediocre weed in Ireland for such an inflated amount! So here i am starting my own grow after a lot of research and building up courage 
Great to meet you lads and lassies!
So for my first indoor grow ive started with Northern Lights in a hydroponic system. Feel free to drop by and leave a comment!
Slan go foill!!

lie the 1st
you realize in all your rambling nonsense you havent answered my question, no matter how many times iv simply and politely worded it for you
a respected opinion that you fail to back up with facts,never mind common sense
another lie
maybe some sort of filter could be attached to stop contaminants getting in? pipe dream or hepa filter?
my god......
again a testament to your fine observation skills, look at our join dates.
well since im a kid maybe you should be the bigger man and end this discussion by
1) naming the device/metheod that removes contaminants from the air without babbling
or
2) admit you wrong and have no idea what your talking about ie that without a filter indoor bud has crap/pollen to
if you do one of the above calmly without juvenile insults, lying or stuffing your posts with more nonsense
that would be great
