Can confirm. Did this with both Jack Herer auto and Mexican airlines auto to AK47 regular male. F1s grew as a consistent hybrid of the two - producing an early finishing plant outdoors. When taken to F2, that's when the variations came about - producing some auto flowering plants that were between 10" and 4' tall - as well as some ten footers that finished later. Had a burnt rubber and juicy fruit pheno that smelled cool but lackluster attributes otherwise.

Here's three of the 60 plants grown at F2. All different heights and at different stages of flowering. The top of the post is 12'.

Odd looking airy buds.

My only direct experience breeding autos was one pollen chuck. I crossed a dwarf (12") Blue Himalayan with a random 4' purple auto plant. I grew some of the f1 seeds and they were all autos with rather disappointing flowers. Airy buds that never swelled up, similar to old school Tai but the autos lacked trichomes. I obviously threw all the beans in the trash. The F2 generation might have been different, but I didn't find any plants in the F1 that were worth crossing. I didn't feel motivated to do grow out hundreds of mediocre plants in order to breed a decent auto strain. It just doesn't sound very rewarding, to me.

it looked at me like "mind your own business".......Sick little fuckers :blsmoke:
Took the kids to the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum) today and they had their best of 2024 Nature Photography exhibit on.

This one immediately caught my eye (and Levi as he thought the ermine looked ‘cute’) and had to snap a pic for @DarkWeb

Some crazy good photography in there today.
