I have had an auto herm. It was on my second grow and only on 1 of 4 plants.

I’ve I’ve a few herm if I let them go to long, I’ve stressed mine pretty good and haven’t had many issues. As far as th legal market, I’m not really sure🤷‍♂️

I always heard they do, that’s why I avoided them years ago. A lot has changed but they still get a bad rap. I finished my first run of 4 autos almost 2 months ago with no issues. It went so well I popped 12 more in the big tent. Only a few weeks left on most of those, no herms. No topping (I’m not ready to try) just LST.

How much flower/concentrates on the legal market come from autoflower grows? That a good question, Do people who dont grow even know about Autoflowers? Have you guys ever seen flower in your dispensary labeled as such ? Do the people who grow it and sell to dispensaries even have to tell if its an autoflower ? The reason I even say this is when iasked my budtender if they ever get autoflowers . She said ” hmm i dont think so everything we get comes from seed or clone ..” At that point I didnt even say anything else .

So in my experience most dispensary weed is commonly photos. Mainly for the predictability, cloning, and control with the flip to flower.

Based on interviews I have heard there are some autoflower varietals being grown and sold commercially. Not a ton in comparison to photos but there are some.
