my first grow journal. 2 autoflowers 2 bagseeds growing togother.

hey all, i just potted my seedlings. the 2 autoflowers afgahn kush rider by world of seeds and blue mammoth by barneys farm are in 5 gallon smart pots with just right xtra organic soil. the 2 bagseeds are in plastic pots with miracle grow moisure control soil.for now im vegging with 2 100w equivalant cfl bulbs than switching to my 400w mh/hps.the bagseeds have to be forced into flowering. im trying to grow these together but ran into the issue of light timing. i was thinking of going 18-6 threw out the autoflowers life an than flowering the 2 bagseeds but..... il have to switch my mh to hps once i see female pistols so, wouldnt that stretch my bagseed plant out?? i guess my question is can i veg a plant for a while (about 1-1/2 months) with a hps and how would this effect my grow?? any insight would be appreceated. also below are a few pics of my seedlings, let me know what you all think.

thanx for viewing my journal

Ok so an update.. I had to take the autos out of the smart pots because they werent growing. So,i repotted tjem in platic pots ero thmiracle grow moisturecontrol soil. They look to be doing way better and groing nice n green.

BE PATIENT they will take a while. fuck those small lights, if you can afford it throw on the HPS it wont hurt them. but keep it high you dont want to burn them... just yourself

thanx i accually did that. i have them on 18/6 with a 400w mh. should i switch to hps as soon as i see female nodes??

just an update. got them under 400w mh. so far the bagseed looks to be doing good but my autos look to be growing really slow... iv done an auto ak by g13labs before and it grew way faster. i think i might have stressed them while repotting them into some plastic self watering pots from wallmart. the smallest auto (3rd pic from left to right) afgahn kush rider looks to be realy struggling but im hoping for the best. any insight would be greatly appreciated.
