Fucking frost. A few of my ladies are showing some damage from the frost but I think they'll pull through.

I've got some LA Conf, C99, a few 3 foot tall iranian autos, a few local crosses, some California hash plant, some Sensi Hash plant, CannaVenture Purpleberry BX, Pakistani land race and a whole bunch of blue dream clones.

Some of them are out in their new homes and a few more im waiting until late june because Weather in the UP is about as predictable as a womens feelings.

am I the only one who is having powdery mildew problems with the Iranian auto flower? this plant is about the only one ive found that will finish up here and still yeild the way i need them to. but this mildew is fucking killing me. Ive been spraying it with neem oil and it kind of helps but it only lasts so long.

Ive got one for my garden. Im a little nervous of putting mj plants in it because of family reasons but the idea has been growing on me. Ive been looking at farmtek and some of their kits look exactly like something that would work for me. That and It would enable me to do a little daylight deprivation on my plants to get them budding earlier.

Last year i went until the last week in october before everything was harvested but during a normal year, we get hard frosts in mid september. It sucks because thats when the plants have just started to bud and produce resin.

Ive been trying to cross the Iranian auto with something every season to see if i can get an f1 thats mildew resistant. this year, im crossing it with a big ass sensi hash plant male. Last years cross of IAF x c99xHerijuana gets powdery mildew pretty badly. I think i might try some Mandela strains because they say theyre bred for northern climates and to be resistant to outdoor molds and mildew. Emerald triangle's blueberry headband is another one that i hear is PM resistant.

I successfully collected the pollen off the Iranian auto. I have a critical sensi star clone that I'm totally dedicating to seed production now.
Any suggestions on how I should store the pollen? I was thinking just let it dry and put it in the freezer.

Went out to check on my autos today. I take back every bad thing I said about the Iranian autoflower. It has taken off like fucking crazy. Big frosty buds with a main cola the size of my wrist and they still have 3-4 weeks left.
My ak auto is looking good too. It will be chopped next week. Looks like about a oz dry.

NICE man. I like the idea of autos for some outdoor to get the early harvest fix!

Looks unreal bro, I didn't get to order some again this year I have been really wanting to grow some for an early harvest. Curious as to the yield. I have some chemdawg iranian going I'm hoping it doesn't take a long time to finish as they need to be done by october first

Last year my Iranian g13 finished the third week of September. I wouldn't be surprised if the chemdog finished around the same time.
Ill post up the yeild of the autos in a few weeks when I know

James, Youre lookin good man. Some of my plants are looking a little shakey. They got frosted and sunburnt when I put them outside. But most of my crop is looking good.

Mine had a rough start too but in the last few weeks really took off.
My Iranian g13s are gonna be fucking huge
