Questions About Auto Flowering Strains
Hello all, I'm new to the boards so please forgive me if I'm posting this in the wrong section. I was kind of hoping to get ahold of MDanzig's attention and some of you other guys who have experience with autoflowering strains, particularly masterlow and blue streak. I've been doing quite a bit of homework here in the past two weeks or so about grow setups, strains, and lights. I'm going to try and find out how "green" my thumb is and I'm going to be working with a little handmade entertainment center kind of thing that has a bottom section that closes up. It's dimensions are 18" tall, 18" deep, and 24" widest part of the base and 16" at narrowest (it has a elongated hexagonal shape to all it to be backed up into a corner). I guestimated that at this space could hold 4 comfortably, 6 at most with 1 gallon pots. My limiting factor of course is the height that I'm working with. This is what leaves me with the option of either going with some small autoflowering strain or doing a scrog grow. I was hoping some of you guys could give me the most common dimensions of masterlows and blue streaks. I would really rather go that route instead of a scrog grow because it would be so much easier (First Indoor Grow). I have 11 beans that a buddy gave me that are durban poison x ak-47 x bubbleberry that could be used for a scrog grow. Back to the autoflowering though. I was planning on using 6 25w cfls for a total of 150 mounted in bathroom fixtures on the tops of the walls. I know this isn't as good as having the bulbs facing downward but I can't afford the headroom. I figured some ghetto rigged 12oz aluminum cans would do well as reflectors for the bulbs. I didn't know what type of bulbs to use for auto strains though. Would it be best to have 6 2700k bulbs from seed to finish, or maybe to mix it up with like 4 2700s and 2 6500s for a fuller spectrum? Lastly does anybody know about the availability of MDanzigs strains on seedbay? I keep checking but there aren't ever any more getting put up for auction. And MDanzig if you happen to come across this thread please consider me for some test grows. I'm juh juh jonesin' for some masterlows. Sorry for the long winded post fellahs, any and all feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

I know that hps is the best lighting for the masterlows. Maybe a 100 watt hps or something like that would work great in that small an area. Cfls should work fine also. You might wanna have them on the redder flower spectrum though cause most af plants skip the veg cycle it seems like. so straight from seedling stage to flower stage. My ML were flowering around day 20 or so and then really took off and started packin on the size. I believe md is sending some seeds to the bay this month if i am not mistaken but i am sure he will chime in and give you a better heads up on that.
