Ah I see cheers for that wasn't sure what they wereEV seeds would be considered semi-auto. They are crossed with ruderalis to shorten the flowering time so they are a hybrid strain with a mix of auto/photo genetics. In most cases, you’ll cut 1-2 weeks off but the potency is typically lower as well. Good option for those who can’t make it into the late season outdoors. I don’t bother with them but have friends that have run them with decent results.
Not autos.What do mean exactly by early version?? Are you referring to autos??
How about at the end of that cycle you watched your plants melt from bud rot? For many northern outdoor growers, a week or two can make or break a successful harvest. We all love the process and it’s heartbreaking to watch 6 months of effort go completely sideways from botrytis. Sativa dominant strains in the north are a no-go. EV versions allow some of these longer flowering strains to be grown up in these parts.I know everyone grows for their own reasons, but decent indicas take what, 8 weeks? 10?
I like growing weed. The fruit of my labor is sweet, but I love the process. I am at the end of flower for a 8 week indica after growing 12 week sativasfor a couple cycles, and it almost bums me out how quickly she matured. I don't have any impetuous to grow faster flowering strains, although I understand why some would. Too each their own.
In that case, you aren't growing a long flowering strain, you're growing a hybrid of a long flowering strain. Calling it EV is a disingenuous way of calling a worked line ruderalis x (other plant) anything but that.How about at the end of that cycle you watched your plants melt from bud rot?

I didn’t coin the term…just the messenger. And I don’t grow them. Not a fan of anything crossed with ruderalis.In that case, you aren't growing a long flowering strain, you're growing a hybrid of a long flowering strain.

My apologies, I was using the colloquial "you", but it didn't come off that way.I didn’t coin the term…just the messenger. And I don’t grow them. Not a fan of anything crossed with ruderalis.
I live in a wet humid climate where I can lose half my crop in a few days to bud rot at the end of bloom, that is why I inquire about early/fast version strains.I know everyone grows for their own reasons, but decent indicas take what, 8 weeks? 10?
