ostgood:

what he said! lol

if you breed your collie with a german shephard, all the offspring will be part
collie and part german shephard and no matter how many generations you go
into the future you will never be able to breed either the collie or the german
shephard out of the line.

with non-autoflowering strains, you can keep a mother alive and generating
cuttings for more than a decade, and if it's killer weed, that's a pretty nice
thing.

with auto-flowering strains, you loose that ability, all you get is, 1 seed, 1 plant,
period, no mothers, no clones, just one harvest only.

i, for one, think that sucks and i wouldn't let an auto-flower within a mile
of my grow!
