Hey all afn fans!

Been a photo nut for a while and attitude gives away so many free autos I thought id go for a little bet with my buddy on who could yield the most on a 4x4 1000w only autos since we're both newish to them. We both have a 5x5 and I have the tables and all equipment. I currently have a good amount of Hydro knowledge and have successfully had a few grows down. I have started 5 red poison and one bf sweet tooth auto in a small 2x4x5 under a 600w. All 20 days from seed and looking pretty awesome minus the sweet tooth. Pic included.
My question to all interested,
On my 4x4 with the formentioned equipment (I have all the extras and can purchase litterally anything needed) what strain could I get 20-50 seeds from and in less than 9 weeks get close to 1kg harvest? Gpw basically.
Dont know if this matters but the looser gives up half yield:) I can start a new post/thread w build pics as soon as we start. Preferably within shipping time from herbies n such.

Nutes GH grow, micro, bloom, access to all expert line
Medium Sun leaves reusable rocks .5-1 in.
4x4 table
1000w air cooled hood.
5x5 tent.
I'm thinking
sweet skunk auto x 24?
00 Seeds chocolate skunk auto?
I have some BAM I been wanting to try but were going for under 9 weeks.
Any ideas or hateraide welcome:)

Give much thanks

Even on strains asking 7 weeks. I know some companies boasts outrageous early times, but with hydro being somewhat faster, and a7 week strain will still be better off at the 10-11 Week mark?

They put a huge amount of weight on at the end so basically people have been pushing them as longs as they will go
 
it can be done. You can chop some autos at day 60, the smoke will be better after 70 though. I know you guys are betting on weight but it be a shame to have over a pound of smoke and it be only decent because it could have been better if you let it grow a week or two more. You prolly won't need 10-11 weeks but you want to give your self time for all of them to reach their full potential. Its not a good idea going into a grow thinking ready or not I'm Chopping day 63, unless something comes up and it calls for it. Just want you to get the best out of your autos, u said you where a photo grower so I don't want you to think autos are worthless because the grow was rushed.
 
That ^ ^ ^

(Although I'm one of those people that is going to need to chop, arbitrarily, at 63 days since I'm traveling)

my "60 day" strain went 88 days, or 12 weeks. basically they are domne, when they are done. Its your option to harvest early. But for max harvest you have to let them grow until you you see the trichs at mostly to all cloudy. I think my plant gain a visible amount in the last 10 days.
 
Just call it the "9 1/2 Weeks" Grow Contest...and the loser has to watch 9 1/2 Weeks with his Mother-in-Law. (and give the winner half his yield)
