I got 2 of these G-13 Labs Northern Light Autos from the attitude as freebies with a couple orders a few months ago. They are both 5 weeks into flowering and are showing two completely different phenotype. One is more indica dom with just one cola stacked with hairy little buds and smells like something from the white widow family (smells identical to a Dinafem Blue Widow pheno I have). The other is sativa dom and has about 12 colas of equal height and proportion, more of a skunky smell and dense nug formations.

My questions is, is it normal for auto flowering strains to show different pheno's like this? or was there some sort of mix up maybe and I got 2 different strains? This is my first time with auto flowers....

Hey indica man any chance of some more info on the specific pheno's? Ie clues early on to pick them etc. I've got two obviously, both smell very very sweet, one has very round leaves, the other almost looks like herrer in the leaf structure lol

And obviously you've either grown a few yourself or seen enough of them, noticed any strange mutations? Both of mine have self-topped secondary growth on the lower nodes, one split at the base of the main stem while the other split right at the end with two seperate budsites?

Yea, my cheese pheno didnt self top, smells like cheesy fruit. growing outdoors i have The sour apple Phenotype, and this girl is alot faster growing, looks like it will yield more. maybe 2 ounces or more.. ill take some pics if i can, i got to say though, under my specific means of growing, this is good LOL. i know people with deep pockets can push 3oz on this pheno with better setup. cant say i saw mutations aside from

Cheese pheno- tends to grow awkward Main cola, like it grows up, then out. almost looks like a mushroom head, for a lack of a better description lol. ill try to find the pic i had. (older harvest)


EDIT: im going to have to guess and say, the self topping is totally dependent upon the growing environment. maybe the lighting you have makes the plants perform a certain way.

How fast growing would you say mine are in comparison? They are just 4 weeks and about 20cm by 20cm, they certainly have many budsites on then already it's impressive to say the least

it should double if it is indica dominant, and triple if it is the sour apple pheno, its more sativa. close to 2 feet high. im sure it gets bigger outdoors. im doing an outdoor grow atm. should have pics of my PE's up. they are around 10-12 days old. dont remember when they popped lol. they are probably 5-6 cm tall.
