Why the differnce????
So in my screen of 10 Original Glue Autos from Nirvana there seems to be a difference in the appearence, growth and budding within the 10. All sit in the same soil and receive identical care. some are starting to get sticky, with tight building buds. Others more thinner in appearance and about 3 of them have what I call, "cheddered" out, looking like a head of romain lettuce lol. I've attached a pic of the entire screen and if you can zoom in to examine certain areas, you can see the difference in leaf shape, shade, and plant density.....thoughts or imput??? I did a heavy defoliation last week but WOW had it grown back in fast! Time to get back at it again :)

In short, they are autos. Just like in people genetics vary from seed to seed. Some take on more of the traits from the male, some from the female.

Do you find there is more consistancy in Fems than Autos?

Diversity of the offspring, beans, would depend on the parents. I imagine the more diverse the genetics in the parents more variety in the seeds.

Yes. There is differences in photos but they are IMO more genetically stable than autos. That is just what I have personally experienced.

I think they call that phenotypes, one parent instead of 2. Photoperiods are usually stabilized by back crossing them to a parent or a seed from the same batch so over time so the phenotypes are reduced.
Once they are stabilized Fem photoperiod seeds are generally crossed back to themselves so the gene pool is even smaller, and if you keep making fem seeds from fem seed plants the gene pool continues to get a little smaller and they also loose resistance to disease and start getting other less desirable traits. I think that is one of the reasons its best to cross breed regular seeds.
To make an auto flower strain a stabilized photoperiod is crossed with a ruderalis cannabis plant, that I assume is stabilized, and then stabilized by some sort of black magic voodoo shit we dont want to know about. Think about it, ruderalis all come from Russia, auto flowers are all part of the invasion plan, I am sure they are already crossing Russian strains with Chinese strains to complete the plan. So to me buying and growing auto flowers is just plain unamerican.

Also, no idea why but IME autos are endless leaf producers and seem to take it as a challenge to grow them back as soon as you defol.

i will back that statement up by saying i think photos are easier. that being said, i only grow photos and grown 2 autos in my life. anyhoo, theyre unpredictable and unstable from my observations. and just being on weedportal, reading horror stories

I do think you can learn from growing autos and maybe what you learn is autos suck.

Autos are very unpredictable to me as well. I have had to learn a new set of nuances on feeding. Even now I never had anything flower so quickly as these pink kush autos. Stress? This is a new kit and all. Just hard to predict where its going and what to feed them.

If they are all autos then you should get some amount from all of them. If you're looking to get serious about growing study up on growweedeasy.com and participate here with us.
