    I just harvested my first Auto

    I just finished harvesting my first auto-flower, Short Rider from Nirvana, and I'm fairly impressed. I decided to grow it outside, hidden in my vegetable garden among the tomatoes and peppers. She was small, only about 15" tall. She began to flower at about 5 1/2 weeks and was ready to harvest after only 6 weeks in flower. I grew her in a pot with Fox Farms soil and nutrients. I usually spend quite a bit of time with training for my indoor plants to assist with light penetration but the only thing I did was bend her over to break the apical dominance of its natural shape. I don't know what the final dry weight will be but I'm going to guess it will be close to two ounces. I don't know about the quality of the bud yet either. I work really hard with my indoor plants but this plant took no work at all. Clearly the Sun is the best light source.

    I'm planning to grow more autos in the future and am looking for recommendations on other strains of Autos to grow in the future. What Autos have you grown and would recommend?
    I like big buds and I can not lie.

    Dagmar That's a beautiful plant. Congrats on an easy grow - I bet those veggies it grew beside kept most of the pests away.
    As for recommendations - I guess it's up to one's preference - Sativa or Indica - I like sativa (Jack Herer was good to me)

      Thanks! One of my favs for indoor is Black Jack which is an off-spring of Jack Herer.
