Short rider

just finishing up my first grow, which is going well ive learned alot and tried not to spend a whole lot on my set up so it was mostly just a learning experience. but im already starting to prepare for my second grow and im going to buy some feminized seeds so i dont have to worry about wasting money or time. im just wondering what people think about the seeds im buying(Short Rider Feminized) and if anyone knows what to expect with the auto-flowering, like yields per plant, do i start on a 12/12 light cycle, and just any advice for a plant like this. any adivce is appreciated and if i get my hands on my brothers camera i will try and make a grow long so people can follow and let me know how its looking. thanks for the help and happy growing

Ibwas thinking of getting that strain myself but settled on the ak-48 and am very happy with it given my limited grow space. I'm interested in this topic though because I might purchase a short rider strain in the future.

I was looking into the ak too, infact still might get that instead but i was wondering am i going to be able to use a HPS the whole time, I mean i know i can but is that what would be optimal for an autoflower?

Hey Regulator,
Just to let you know that Short rider IS NOT AN AUTO FLOWERING STRAIN!!! I bought 40 of these and they are now 13 weeks out and 6ft tall. They have at least 5 more weeks to go. I know what the seeds company says on its website but they are lying! I'll be posting a link and starting a new thread with regard to this later today but i have to motor now, if you haven't bought them, don't! THEY DO NOT AUTO FLOWER!!!

hey thanks a bunch for the update that is some great news to know. sorry it took someone like you to figure that out but definitely not getting a buy from me. just wondering tho how they are actually turning out?

the auto-flowering buds are just odd to smoke, they remind me of like radishes because you just rip the buds straight out of the dirt lol, i believe the auto-flower buds are cannabis ruderalis... something like that, but its usually about the same as ditch weed with few exceptions (like lowrider) but you cant expect those buds to be amazing every time, they are freaks of nature
