New Grower can autos realy be as strong as photos?

[adz]

Dont get me wrong autos are well strong enought for me but with part of every auto being hemp can they ever be as good?

Having just done some photos they do seem stronger in hit and smell and ... I dont know
Purity?

As time goes on, Autoflowers are getting danker:smokebuds: A lot of Autos I have smoked are just as dank and as strong as many photos that I have had. Im sure there are plenty of super strong photos out there, that would be hard to match up to but with the convenience autos bring to the table, its not a hard pick for me. .
Just wanted to put my opinion out there

I`m with you Stylez, breeders have been working on photos for decades...autos, less than a decade(pretty much!)

i thought about this and basically im a numbers guy so i like seeing testing and stuff, i was looking into think different (which ive grown) and starRyder which i havent grown to compare. i was looking directly on the dutch passion website because they have good reviews and descriptions also some thc/cbd percentage for their strains and both the think different and starryder have thc thats 15%+ actually closer to 20% :smokebuds:

ok i know this is under optimal condtions but even when looking through some of there photo strains the THC is around 12% so thats less than some of their autos and im sure that would be under optimal condtions as well so IMO some of these newer autos ARE actually stronger then some photos BUT i also on the other hand would say some photos are better then some autos..i guess it just depends which strains ur comparing right?

which photo did you find better than which auto if u dont mind me asking :smokebuds:

I personally agree with stylez and krug, just like anything else autos will take time to perfect. Though I don't think autos will pass the potency of photos I defiantly think they can match it and again like stylez said the ease of growth just puts them slightly ahead in my book

Yeah like I said there is already autos plenty strong for me! Love the Way they grow but they do use a lot of power.
But I think there's something in the way photos taste and smoke.

It's simply a process of back crossing and selective breeding. Every generation is going to be a bit better than the last because of our selection. We don't have any reason to care if the plant contains ruderalis, sativa, or indica genes. We are creating something with specific desired attributes and the genes are just a means to an end.

I honestly think that within a few years they will be just as strong. Like some people already said there are lots of strains that rival photos for potency, I've even read that in most cases CBD levels are higher in autos. As far as strength for growing autos are right up there. I use advanced nutrients and I'm able to use full strength on a few of my autos. The ones that seem stronger to me are autos that have already been developed and then worked with another stable auto. My white cheese from dinafem is ww auto x cheese auto and she is tougher than nails

I know the ak auto i toked yesterday layed it to me.I would say just about as good as the Ak photo i grew last summer.I was soaring so high i didnt know what to do with myself then i just realized i need to relax and go with it.LOL So i would say yes they can be as strong.8 years ago when i started auto's there where some that i did not like.Like dinafem roadrunner,nirvana shortrider.It was just week smoke.But now they have them much better!

in all honesty i don't think there is much difference and autos are getting better all the time its just nice to have the choices we have today photo auto or super auto life is good people
