Hi , im worried , as I grow my autoflowers outdoors ,and its on the cold side , that they are not filling out a lot . Its hard to tell when to chop ,three months in on three fastbuds strains. Two looking close
Hi I'm interested in knowing what you consider to be cold temps as I'm growing autos outside as an experiment this year and live in a temperate climate (western UK) with night time temps as low as 12/13 c, I don't really care what the yield is as its a test grow, having said that they seem to be doing very well
Cold temps and short day length conspire to limit autoflower flower development outdoors.
Autos really do need 18/6 and indoors to perform to their best potential.
As primarily an outdoor grower, autos lost their appeal to me for outdoor growing a long time ago.
Harvest at about 90-95% brown pistils if you prefer a THC induced mind bending head high.
Harvest at about 99-100% brown pistils if you prefer a CBD induced, more heavy and relaxing, body stone.
Hope this helps, Organoman.
