Are auto strains easier to grow

I grew my autos the same as I did photoperiod except that I could give them a lot more light in flower. Autos will handle DLI of 70 or 80.

I stopped growing autos because you can't flip them as you can with photos so it's much harder to control their growth.

Two autos, one hiding in the corner.

Very nice photo. Lower yield but much easier to work with.

Most cannabis is hybrid, a mixture of indica and sativa. Autos have the autoflower gene from cannabis ruderalis so it's just another cannabis hybrid. Water it, give it lots of food (light), got easy on the fertilizer, and you'll end up with a shitton of weed.

Friends don't let friends grow autos! Ive never been impressed with the high. Not med worthy, I'll give you some seeds if you want some real pot lol
Not even sure what “not med worthy” means, but sort of strikes me as nonsense. Luckily, I just smoke weed to get high, and I’ve grown batches of autos that do that really, really well.

I grow a lot of autos for their quick seed to harvest times...I have had some as quick as 60 days from cotyledons to harvest....but that's rare and takes perfect conditions and just the right pheno to get it. That said they are much less forgiving than photos....I suggest planting multiple autos if you go that route cause your probably going to kill/stunt a few.
Best of luck with whichever way you go......here's that plant I got harvested at 60 days Sweetseeds Tropicanna Poison auto20241010_064459.jpg
