Autoflower strains for beginners

I’m currently growing a feminized Trainwreck strain. For my next grow I’d like to try an autoflower for the first time. I’m working with a 4ft tent here so are there any good autoflower strains you can get away with topping and good for a beginner grower. Just looking for some good strains that are suit for beginners.

White Widow is a very hardy strain.

ILGM’s White Widow autos are good and hardy, and I topped one of them with no problems, she produced nice, dense nugs.

I second @MidwestGuy suggestion and will throw in Sour Diesel :love_you_gesture:

I’ll second the second, and add Wedding Cake. Hands down one of the most consistent ILGM autos I’ve run.

I have not grown that many autos but this one stood out. Compact with dense buds and a easy grow

I’m not big on autos, but did a gorilla glue that I Fimmed and ended up getting 7 dry ounces. It was not a seed from ILGM.

Your blueberry and mine, are very very different :joy:

At the same time I was growing them another poster’s blueberry were much taller. Strange. Mine held true to ILGM’s description. What does yours look like?

Ethos Purple Thai. Short stocky with heavy dense buds, beginner friendly, and disease resistant.

I think the overall shape is very similar. It looks like the difference is you did a little LST to spread the bottom. I left mine untouched.

I’m currently growing a photo now. Was just wanting to try another way to grow. I know there’s a bit of a trade off when you grow photo vs auto in yield.

i currently grow autos, theres really no pros to using autos that i can see, only thing is you dont gotta do the 12/12 flip, yields are a bit different at times- had 1 gg auto that gave me 9ozs and 1 currently that looks to be around 6gs lol …they just aren’t very forgiving so stress training can make or completely break your grow
