Strain advice planting late in UK greenhouse

I'm in the UK and I've just decided to try and grow in the greenhouse. I understand it's very late to do this and I may not get the optimal yield but there must be an auto-flowering strain that will work? Can someone suggest a good strain that will flower automatically and do so by september time?



Any advice would be appreciated…. There must be a way!?



Thanks

If you put a 100W bulb on a timer to come on during the night for an hour or two, you can still veg your plants for as long as you want in your greenhouse without flowering starting. Sorry, can't recommend any autos, just not a fan.

hi powegu, im in the uk too, and yes you have left it a little too long, and with the weather we have been having recently you may be slightly disappointed but i will try to help anyway, i personally suggest blue mammoth, they are the best i found for dealing with our cold nights, you can find them on the upinsmoke website, they deliver free first class to uk and i have never had a problem, although i am a regular :-). because of the temps you wont be able to just pop them outside. you will need to plant them in final pots, i suggest using bio bizz all mix which you can get off amazon (ignore reviews i know first hand it works) water well and seed will sprout after a couple of days, have a blue 6500k cfl over the top of them on 24/0 and during the day pop them in your greenhouse and just before it gets dark back under the cfl, just feed with plain water for 21 days while hardening your plant (taking in in the evening) after 21 days feed with a quater strengh bio bizz bio grow, then water, then half strengh grow, then water, then full strengh, and from the first nute feed you will be able to leave her outside all the time. and for f**k sake DO NOT PUT A LIGHT IN YOUR GREENHOUSE AND LEAVE IT ON AT NIGHT!!!! you may aswell put a sign on your doir saying im growing. i would strongly suggest against growing outside in uk, there is so many more problems, if you have a think and decide you want to grow indoors i will give you advice and make sure you dont get caught, i hope this post was helpful if you have any questions please just ask and i will do my best to help, best of luck. furious
p.s: if you are growing outside i suggest getting your seeds tomorrow, you havnt got long

LOL, good point! Forgot your are growing illegally! I use a light in my gh but it is not visible from the road, surrounded by trees, and legal where I live.

yeah you dont want to put a light in a greenhouse lool, we have helicoptors scouting roofs and sheds for heat signals so that would stick out like a hermie in a room full of females, god dam i want to moove to the usa, i have been considering for a while now.
