    Default Auto/photo potency debate

    After searching on line it seems most people are saying autos produce leas potent buds? Where as some are saying theres not much different?
    After peoples personal experiences with this? , potency is more so what im going to be aiming for
    I normally smoke either cheese , amensia haze hoping to get something upto that kind of standard

    Would be good to hear feedback from anyone thats experimented , maybe grown an amensia haze auto and a photo auto or similar
    Cheers

    Iv'e just recently harvested a blue cheese auto and although it wasn't a perfect grow, the potency was still there.

    I think it has a lot to do with good genetics,if you go with a good breeder ie dutch passion dinafem ect as long as yove got the basics right (enviroment light ect)the potency of modern autos is just as good as photo strains.its just you lose out a bit on yield.
    That being said some of the super autos can be big.

    Oddly enough, I am purposely growing a lower strength plant at the moment as the autos I have been growing are just too potent for a daytime smoke

    Mephistos Alien V Trianle has tested at 25% THC so stronger than a lot of photos.

    The big question eh? well i see auto's more as a catch crop while waiting on them photo's to veg. I've just setup my 1st grow 3x autos i was going to do photo's next but the setup cost of the veg cab after the 1st groom setup doesn't please the wallet or missus. That said i've seen many "mainstream" strains as autos, for example GH Super lemon haze. Then it's the amount of time the lights on for auto's vs photo's most seem to run 20/4 or 18/6 with autos for the full grow. Photo's however 18/6 then 12/12 flower depending on setup and time of year it's easier to have steady lights off temps when the lights ain't off for half the day but uses more eleccy. How all this equates to how she'll smoke and strength surely has more to do with how she grew and with what medium and nutes was used.
    Willie don't let you smoke up in his house! But I'm your Uncle Elroy! and I don't care how high you get! As long as you let me hit it up, first!
    My 1st attempt with a trio of autos.
