Not outdoor they ain`t , heavy dew , rain or any moisture in the air & autos go to shit . FACT .

Indica dominant auto's bred indoors I wouldn't depend on, but these are outdoor bred sativa dominants, haze even... In my experience most stuff with haze in it is pretty mold resistant.
 

My critical blue x Leb27v2 she is 4 weeks old , she showed sex at 3 weeks on 18/6 , she is having a week or two in the conservatory then I'm going to plant her outdoors :dance013:

all take a look at the new LaBuenaHierba Seeds :) Perfect for uk Climate!

Most autos don't work outdoor but LBH breeds outdoor and has done for years in Holland. I have seen these finish way up north outdoor and I have done his sdh outdoor and in a sweaty polytunnel north UK. Trick to outdoor autos is dont start them before mid may.

How do you mean most auto's don't work outdoor? Autoflowers work in more places outdoor than non-auto's...
If you're talking crappy breeding leading to poor mold resistance, sure, but that's nothing to do with the plant autoflowering. It's like saying feminized plants tend to herm.

I am saying a lot of the modern auto strains are produced indoor with little to no breeding being done to make them mould resistant. The resulting seeds from large auto's ( super auto's ) is plants that mould from a week of rain. I have grown a lot of auto's outdoor and if thier not breed outdoor you get a lot of waste from mouldy buds. And hermi plant breed hermi plants fact. Forced reversal by changing the way a plant produced hormones isn't a hermi a plant that makes late male flowers is a hermi and will produce hermi plants. Though to get technical all cannabis is hermi because all cannabis is male and female like hemp genetically and male's and females is only relevant as expression.

I agree that a lot if not most autos are not selected for outdoor hardiness. Then again most professionally bred outdoor cannabis is bred in greenhouses with optimal conditions rather than in a soggy forest.
I think the bigger problem is that these plants produce dense nuggets. Thats why i went with some heavy sativa influenced autos this year, buds should be more airy and spaced further apart.
I grew easy ryder and speedryder in my greenhouse with good success, 33 gram average with little mold which was way more than the 15g estimate. Potency very good, strong taste yet both taste and high although strong were not as pleasant as regular outdoor. Hoping these 5th generation autos improved on that part.

One things for sure though, they need optimal care to yieldso if its for guerilla I dont think they're worth the effort, better to plant early strains early on.
