Help a south floridian 1st time outdoor grower!

Hey what's up everyone....

I just recently got into reading about autoflowering it's freaking awesome! I'll probably use them whenever I set up my indoor cabinet because of their ease of light cycles and short height.

Anyhow, I obviously don't have my cab set up yet. But.... since autoflowers are so small, I figured I could get away with having one growing in my backyard. Do you guys think it's possible for it to flower out there if I plant during this season?

Also, do you guys think it would smell into my neighbors yards?? Any strain suggestions that are low maintenance? I'll be planting in ground so the pot it's in doesn't bring it any more attention. I'll be using organic soil in area where I grow it.

I was hoping to order from The Attitude seed bank, preferably a cheaper strain most are $60ish, but I'm open to suggestions!

Thanks guys!

Growing outdoors in florida can be tough because of the humidity levels in the summer. You might wind up with PM, as far as smell, I have never flowered an auto-flower plant but I know that any other cannabis plant would give off enough smell to make it over your fence when its flowering.

I dont think it would be worth the risk, Ive grown in Florida and got busted for it, that shit sucked! Ill never grow in the Sunshine state again. but then again I wont even visit that state, so dont listen to me...

I've grown autos outdoors here in TN where it gets pretty hot. Of the 8 or so strains I've grown so far all were very hardy and outside of spider mites, had few issues. They can get pretty stinky, especially anything with diesel in it. Of all the ones I've grown Snowryder probably had the least odor, but even that could probably be smelled by your neighbors. In general I find autos to be very hardy and can stand up very well to variations in heat and humidity.

I grew LR2 in south florida right in my garden. Made great companion plant to my tomatoes. As long as soil amendments are made and a bit of neem, you should be fine. Did find that I got better yield in the cooler month grows.
