Hey folks!

I just want to ask y’all about auto’s ruderalis - I hear the yields may be smaller but does anyone have any they’d like to add good or bad about auto strains?

I’m a noobie obviously so anything at all would be helpful.

Peace

Indoors Autos are less potent then their normal namesakes. You can't keep a clone of an auto strain.

Out doors Autos can yield way more and be more potent in northern climates where normal cannabis does not finish before the first frosts. And if you start them in your house very early you can have outdoor bud finished by early summer.

I prefer clones or normal plants for indoors, for out doors sativa auto's and normal indicas rule.

Good luck buddy.

Autos have come a looong way since the original Lowryder was released, almost 2 decades ago.

Autos flourish under the right circumstances. I grew these in DWC setup with two 150w HPS. This strain ws made by our mod Magash.

Thanks. PS you can 'clone' autos, but not in the traditional sense. You would have to use tissue culture to get viable clones.

Unlike other species of cannabis, Cannabis ruderalis enters the flowering stage based on the maturity of the plant, rather than its light cycle.[5] With C. sativa and C. indica varities, it is possible to keep the plant in the vegetative state indefinitely by maintaining a long daylight cycle. C. ruderalis however, will enter the flowering stage regardless of daily light duration. Cannabis geneticists today refer to this feature as "auto-flowering". [6]
It has less THC in its resin compared to other Cannabis species.[4] However, it is often high in cannabidiol (CBD).[7]

TC looks very promising for artificial seeds, seems easy enough with a FH.  You can get auto cuttings to root if you do it right, though you have a very short window and the yield isn't that much greater, so it's generally not worth the effort. 

Autos are great for northern climates, I germinate the seeds indoors then move them to beds  once I see a taproot.  You really gotta let those roots run if you want a nice bush, the quicker varieties can be shock sensitive. 

You'll have to be on point with your IPM if you plan on both photoperiod and autos in the same garden, usually I can harvest my first batch before I even need to spray, but that depends on a lot of factors.

If you plan on doing autos long term or in quantity, get regular seeds so you can make your own.  A little pollen on the lower branches goes a long way.
