just saying autoflowering strains are meant for early finishing outdoors. indoors, they're unnecessary, and are kind of a waste- indoors, you control everything except genetics. with AF, you have no control over size (veg time) so it's just not ideal as veg/flowering is outta your hands and AF strains usually sacrifice yield/quality for finish time (the drawbacks of the ruderalis bloodline).
feminized seeds are ok. i've found, years ago, that fem seeds have more problems/weaknesses. they just didn't seem to grow as robust a plant. fast forward- i believe there's more than one approach to create fem seeds used nowadays, some work better than others. however, i still hear mixed reviews, and would personally avoid them.
still, go with what you have. get a good first run in- focus on growing the plants as best you can. if you grow a good plant, you'll get good buds. i'm sure, with good care, it'll be as good or better than most of the higher-quality stuff you can buy on the streets.
you can always change your genetics and fine tune your grow for good yields as it goes. work hard, keep your expectations in check, and never give up- you'll be fine this time, and down the line with persistence.
