So i run a semi perpetual GH in SoCal and between Dec and the middle of Feb i have an empty GH and would like to fill it with something. Autos were the first thing to come to mind. I have grown a few autos in my time mainly MasterLow. (I still have like 70 ML seeds stashed)!!:biggrin:

Mainly i am looking for a strain that likes to stretch and fill out a trellis. Yield is a factor hence the trellis. It will get down to the 40's at night here so it has to be able to handle some cold as well. Wouldnt mind running 20 plants. Feminized seeds would be okay for me too.There are just so many damn strains to choose from now. When i first ran autos there were like 3 on the market.
Any suggestions or info or pics would be appreciated. Will buy the seeds in a couple days. Thanks.

Seems like Spyder is a stretchy one. Most still seem like they are SOG style plants. I would like to cover a 8x8 area with tops and not have to run 64+ plants to achieve it.

Not too many strains talk about adapting to cold. Maxigom is the only one so far that says it can take some cold. It is a SOG style plant though. The only trellis grow i have seen on here was done with Think Different from DP. I guess i might just have to run some numbers instead of a trellis.

I don't advise running autos outdoors in winter. The results will be quite diminished.

Anything you run during the winter would bring diminished returns. I already understand this. I have been doing winter GH runs for years and years. I flower outdoors with regular strains all the way up to mid April. Getting a yield whether diminished or not is still better than getting nothing. I was planning on making it all down into BHO most likely anyway. I just wanted something that would spread out and fill my GH. Thanks, CN.

A side by side would be uttery interesting! (especially as im thinking of goin think different this summer outside in similar climate.. :p )


Will you use the trellis as a scrog, or am I just smoked here and missed something..?

i know that NordenSeeds has a AK47 auto that can yield some... though I dunno... if any strain in these temps will have sufficient nutritionuptake to yield good.
anyway, those ak47 goes about 80-120 cm.

I wish you best of luck! And I'll happily read if youll make a diary.

Hey thanks for the responses. Yeah i was wanting to use the trellis as a SCROG. I guess i should of put that in the title LOL. It shouldnt ever get to freezing here just cold, so no frost.
I already ordered some seeds to throw out there some Maxigom and Sugargom but am still planning on running a scrog with some autos in 4 months when there is another two months of downtime in the GH. I am leaning towards getting the Spyder but not sure if i wanna trellis down ten seedlings when there are gonna be some males. I will look into that ak47 thanks for the input.
