Do you use seeds from seedy-weedy?

@sjoerdvisser

m interested to hear your thoughts on quality autos brand and breeders in general though i noticed your collection had some repetition.

i want 9lb hammer or power, a cheese(really seemed to help), and a day haze(keep going).+fruit/colour for dessert so i want this is regulars so this can be kept in stock so to speak

so thats what im looking at for chronic back pain, lack of sleep, side effects from pharma etc)

i think that autos have their place, especially outdoors. as do fems, likely with people stuck to a plant count for example

These are autoflower breeders and companies I work with and I’ve grown genetics out from others not on this list as well.

Auto Seeds
Blk.Seeds
Bomb Seeds
DinaFem Cannabis Seeds
Dutch Passion Cannabis Seeds
Female Seeds
Heavyweight Seeds
Mephisto Genetics
Royal Queen Seeds
Seed Stockers
Short Stuff Seeds
Sweet Seeds
Zambeza Seeds
Zamnesia
Zenseeds

There’s some great stuff out of many of these, but highlighting I’d say Mephisto, Dinafem, Dutch Passion (and not even kissing ass because @DutchPassionTony is on here, but because they genuinely have very stable genetics based on the feedback my community AFN provides (proof’s in the pudding!))

I love Dinafem genetics, I’ve never grown anything of theirs I wasn’t satisfied with and I find their autoflower reproductions of the more “well known” commercial strains are usually pretty on-point in terms of what people expect for appeal and that “authentic” feeling. If you are looking for a good cheese, their Kush and Cheese (both photoperiod and autoflower) are just loaded with cheesy stank.

@sjoerdvisser

may i ask why you prefer your autos?

do you run them 24 hr cycles?

i have two right now that look great, and within a week or two should meet the VyprX+

the auto mazar were from vicotry seeds, the white widow were from a bin he had behind the counter and he grabbed two crappy looking ones after our wonderful discussion on paper towel germination and him not wanting to warranty seed based on pre imbibing the seed.

I received an autoflower with an Attitude seed order several years ago and I didn’t know what it was. No clue what I was doing (miracle grow soil haha) and I looked on the internet for what the heck this “autoflower” thing was. Found the usual mixed bag of results and opinions from forums and then I found the Autoflower Network. One of the admin of that site at the time actually reached out to me on my newbie question and personally took me under his wing to help me understand how to do things, encouraging, basically being a mentor. I loved that vibe so much that I stuck with that particular forum. Years later, I’m now an owner of the Autoflower Network and manage the community with over 25,000 registered home growers. So that’s why I love my autos. I found so many people that love them, that grow them for medicine, the breeders that stick with them and give us the bigger and better autoflowers that we want to grow.

Here’s a Dutch Passion Auto Ultimate from Mr Ganjamoto, grown on AFN:

@sjoerdvisser

is there a no “bashing” companies policy? i feel like that’s the point of sharing bad experiences. if theyve been resolved by said companies then one would state that the situation was taken care of or one would likely not even be posting in the first place.

There’s a pretty distinct difference between giving honest/constructive feedback and dropping a bunch of hate speech and F-bombs. I always encourage honesty, it’s that feedback that makes people grow (or think about growing.) That said, it should be encouraged giving vendors a fair opportunity to respond to feedback and correct situations. I see the opposite a dime a dozen on social media, people have one bad experience and get on Facebook to trash talk in front of thousands how much company X sucks. Knee-jerk reacting consumerism.

@sjoerdvisser

they are a breeder im hearing is one that rips off genetics, i was ok with run 1 so i did grab a second to see i will not be,

niagara seed bank was the one arguing about methods,

We see fly-by-nights with autoflowers quite a bit, it’s all the popular strains other breeders have put out with a new label. Photoperiods are not exempt, breeders do the same thing there. Quick $$$. You know how much 10 regular seeds are running from some breeders at these conventions go for? I’ve seen upwards to $250 for 10 packs of regs. That’s some serious coin for something that seeds out by the literal thousands if you were so inclined.

@sjoerdvisser

so this also affect breeding ability what if they start only selling fems, there are companies that have gone this route now also, so there is no “ripping off their genetics properly”

Many breeders have gone this way and I do suspect it’s partly for the reason you listed, safeguarding those genetics! I like having the option for both (nowadays I honestly like growing from non-feminized, plus I’ve been playing around a bit with my own auto crosses (nothing to show, I just dabble.)) Fems can save some time depending on what I’m doing with them though.
