Autoflower question.. SOG.. !!!!!!!!!

Hello, I'm new to the world of Autoflower genetics (i don't live in a cave..lol) and I was wondering how to replicate autoflower plants so I can have an endless SOG outdoors or indoors. I need to know if you have to breed your own seeds??. Or can you clone an autoflowering plant?? Is there a veg time, or is it just seed to flower??? Thanks in advance as this girl wishes to have an endless SoG garden with auto genetics.. Bless...:dance013:

Either do a regular seed run or use the best 2 females to make fem seeds. That way you can run AF fem sogs. Otherwise, just pop double the amount of females u want in regular seeds and hope for a 50/50 ratio and cull the males at week 2-3. If space is an issue start them in 1.5-2L bottles and transplant the females into bigger pots when they sex.

Gluck =]

Thanks for the info hun, my thing is that I dont want to spend loads and order lots of seeds, I wanted to produce loads with the best 2 females, how do i go about that? Thanks..

make your own seeds, it's the best way to go. that way, about 2 weeks before harvest time you germinate more seeds so you have a constant flow of plants going. that's what i do. i'm all done making seeds for awhile now. i have about 1000 seeds of 8 different auto strains.

Yes that's exactly what I need to do.. How do you go about making your own seeds? Do I order a fem pack of my favorite strain, or a mix sex pack of auto seeds then breed? I hope its not too hard to do.. Thanks a bunch..

Buy yourself a pack of non fem seeds. Autos show their sex at around 3 weeks of age. If you want control over the pollination move the males away from the females as soon as you determine their sex. When the males start to drop their pollen capture it. I place pieces of paper under the plant, let the pollen fall on to them, then gather it up. You can also take the male, cut it off and place it in a plastic bag and shake it to release the pollen. Once your girls start to show buds take a small artists brush and "paint" the pollen onto the buds. Depending on how many seeds you want you can pollinate one or two of the lower branches or the whole plant. One small lower branch can easily produce between 30 to 50 seeds. If only doing the lower branches don't pick those when you harvest the rest of the plant. Leave them until the seeds start to drop on their own. You should end up with lots of fat, mature seeds for your next grow.

Awesome info ... much thanks and respect.. I content with this answer as well as my ability to make it happen.. Will the seeds be stable, female, or just a mix where I have to cull the males?? Thanks again..keep burnin..

they'll be stable auto flowers but you'll have to cull the males. it's possible to get feminized seeds but until you have a couple of grows under your belt i wouldn't try it.

Nice to see you interested in AFs!! they are a great new way to produce your meds.

AF-SOG is the best way to grow most Autoflowering pheno types, although some AFs get to large for this type of growing method, requiring larger pots and much more space to branch out.

As said before you cant clone AFs, but you can make hundreds of seeds from a single female keeping you in stock for many grows. Plant hudreds in 16oz cups until they show sex then transplant those females in 1-2 gallon pots and enjoy the harvest a few weeks later.

BUT, there is a slight misconception about the ease of growing AFs, just because they dont require a change in photo period, doesnt change the fact that some AFs are difficult to grow. Some AFs require a strick food schedule and others are more sensitive to changes in pH and many other things. Just because they look simple doesnt mean you can just plant and forget them. Research what food and lighting schedules work best for the certain AFs you deside to use. But then again what the hell do i know.

Still waiting for a true AF-SOG type plant , Non-Branching, Bud on a stick is what we need.
But Im sure it will be up soon, a lot of nice breeders working on it Im sure.

Peace!
