Thinking about AF seeds. Advice welcome

So heres a little tid bit of info that may help me help you help me...
I dont have a lot of space or funds like alot of people. I have a scrog set up that can only fit two plants in 1 gallon buckets and 3-4 cfl's with reflective shields and of course a fan. i also have a cloning station for two clones ( no space and not enough funds to go any bigger ). If i removed the screen i would be able to do up to 5 plants.

I was thinking for my next crop to get some feminized auto flowering seeds from nirvana. I hear they take less money and what nots to grow. I dont have a specific strain in mind as im waiting to hear your opinions.

to AF or to not?

ps do i need nutrients for AF? i know it wouldnt hurt to have them on hand


thanks and happy toking!

Autoflower are almost zero maintance, thats the plus, the minus is that yields are low. I grew out 6 AF with a 600w Hps in 3g pots with fox farm nutes & soil on 20/4 and ended up with a little over 4oz. If you are going to get some autoflowers....one stay away from nirvana tried there af didn't like the result, and get autoflowers crossed with ak-47 bigger better yields. But in the same since just buy regular strains and start them from 12/12 at seeds almost get the same result as af, maybe a little more or less, but a better variety of genetics. They will stay about the same height as an autoflower. Just food for thought.

Tried them and don't like them I've tied ten varieties and the all sucked in the flavor category and yield.then I started lsting real plants. Now I'm growing og#18 and it's the bomb.

I have been hearing that there are some issues with auto flower. I know they are still messing around with gens but the common issue coming up is the need to change light cycle were you shoudlnt have too. I would love to see more people get it and report on it but I will be passing on the Auto flower for now.
