I have a hard time rating this thing because I haven't smoked it yet and I didn't treat it so well - I topped it, defoliated it, had it in a 1 gallon pot and flowered it in a 12/12 cycle. While most of this may affect the yield for an auto, I don' t know that these factors contributed to its longer than expected time to harvest. I wouldn't even mention the time it took if it wasn't called Auto SPEED Bud! I feel bad giving this only an average rating , but the breeder is making these claims and it just wasn't my experience. Maybe I'll update the rating after I do a smoke test and also see how the clone performs.

After about a week of just water and nothing but cloudy trichomes, I chopped her down! I don''''''''t have a scale yet so I''''''''m unsure of the wet weight - and I''''''''m not sure I even care honestly, I''''''''ll wait until its dry to weigh. One thing I gotta say ... Trimming Aint Easy! Took me an hour and a half for this modest size plant! She''''''''s drying now in a box in an effort to keep the light off because the Internet told me light was bad for drying. I keep it open a bit for some air flow so its not complete darkness - I hope the Internet approves. So far just smells like the bottom side of a lawn mower but I guess thats why they call it grass! Stay tuned for more updates!000

Yeah, I realize these are plants and not something manufactured in a factory so I understand there will be variances. I just think its interesting that like you said, they are still being stabilized and somewhat unpredictable. For example, I'm really interested to see how the Auto Speed clone comes along, so far its growing by its own timeline, not the Parent's. I thought it would follow the Parent's.

John what happened to the clone ????

@Teamdirtbag2, More photogenic for sure - I wonder if its the Widow's extra bushiness that gets in the way of great bud porn. Also .. the Critical is much more pungent

John ... ??? You don't let your plant to breakdown her nutrients and her chlorophyll ???
Drying in the dark helps to breakdown the few amounts of chlorophyll left after the flush, that same chlorophyll who gives that awful taste and bad smell in the first days of drying. Drying process must be slow, 10-14 days, then comes the curing process in jars ...

@JohnCH,between 50% and 60% for drying shall be fine, if they just stay in the shadow it's okay the thing it's to avoid getting direct light on it.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, I have it in that box with flaps just a wee bit open so its rather dark but I am sure an ever so slight bit of light can sneak in. I didn't want to seal the box entirely, but I do have a temp/humidity sensor in there so I could seal it and just try make sure it stays as certain levels -- just not sure what those levels need to be .... advice??
The box is the best idea I have at the moment as I don't have an option of doing anything outside of the grow room - so its going to have to deal with the 12 hours of light while the other plants finish.

@Teamdirtbag2, I think you are right, it would be interesting so see what happens to an auto clone. Looks like I clipped it at week 8 so its 10 weeks old now - assuming you start its age from when it was cut. Stay tuned!

@tbiz99, Yep these are the freebies. Good choice to grow together as they are both rather easy and very similar in size, structure, growth rate (except at flowering), nutrient/light requirements and responses and such. That Candida on the other hand ....

I've just learned recently that Auto's are still on the way to be stabilized, you shall probably tell Auto Speed Bud that you needed twice the time than it's supposed to take to grow a plant with the seed they have send you. They would probably send you a more stable version.
