How to grow Roadrunner Autoflowering
Seb's take
Lowryder #1 crossed with Dinafem's own #1 — the breeder's first venture into autoflowering, and a founding member of a very large family. A slightly indica-leaning hybrid, bred more for speed and self-sufficiency than for showmanship, needing no lecture on light cycles to get on with flowering.
Where it comes from
Dinafem mark this one as the first autoflower in their catalogue — a founding plant, in effect, and the start of a very large family. It crosses Lowryder #1, the strain that opened the door to modern autoflowering, with their own Dinafem #1, giving a slightly indica-dominant hybrid. The Lowryder side supplies the ruderalis machinery that lets her flower without regard to light; the house parent lends a bit of quality. A historically minded pick more than a headline-grabbing one.
Nose & flavour
No tasting notes are recorded, so I will not conjure any. As one of the earliest autoflowers, she came from a generation bred more for the novelty of self-flowering than for a refined nose, and the record keeps quiet on the point. I will keep quiet with it rather than invent a profile the paperwork does not support.
The high
The effect is likewise unrecorded, and the THC given only as high, with no figure attached. She is slightly indica-leaning by make-up, which suggests a settled sort of experience over a racing one, but the record offers no detail beyond that. I will leave the character there rather than write in effects it does not state.
Growing it
A medium autoflower at 120cm, flowering over 60 to 65 days from seed. The yield is modest — 20 to 30g per plant — which is honest for an early-generation auto; these were quick and self-sufficient long before they were bountiful. She needs no light-cycle management, which was rather the revolutionary point of her. A gentle, undemanding grow with a small return, best valued for its ease and its place in the family tree rather than for sheer weight.
