New Grower what is the strain for me

Also, there have been several experiments where dudes tried multiple pot SOGs versus a single giant pot, LST versus ScrOG, etc...bottom line, 1 big plant will/should yield the same as multi pots, and when you're starting out, I'd go with 1 plant initially to learn on so you're not correcting variables on 2 different living creatures.

I ALWAYS talk myself into starting too many seeds, also in a space-restricted area, and I regret it every time. 1 larger pot will be more fun to start, and then you can try multi-strain/multi-pot grows as you master the basics.

Strain recommendations:
-Samsara El Alquimista (photo) - piece of cake to grow, literally bullet proof and a CHAMPION at LST. When taken at 50% amber this high lasts 3 hrs +

-Anything by Mossy aka Dragon Master Genetics (autos) - I tried her early in my growing career, grew a bunch of weed, and then came back to her genetics with some perspective recently for a 16oz grow comp. Another "piece of cake" breeder who focuses almost entirely on the effect and quality of the finished product instead of marketing related traits like yield/THC%/etc. These are medical strains for patients that want something other than to watch cartoons and drool on themselves. She'll go so far as to give you free beans if you do a medical journal and provide data-based feedback.

-HighRise (autos and photos, dwarf strains as well) - look around in their sub-forum, they have some KILLER weed right now...

-Dinafem Amnesia Auto or Haze2.0 Auto - Classic Amsterdam genes in an auto by a reliable seed bank. Big fan of DinaFem's right now, I think they do good work for a major commercial name.

-SaH - Not the biggest name in the game, but an engaged breeder here and at icmag, someone who grows and smokes the plant and appreciates good product. Also has a sub-forum on AFN...
 
my box is 2ft +3ft +5ft I am gona grow 2 auto ponders in 20l pots

My tent is 2x4x5.

Your lights (and the gap between the light and the plant) will take up close to a foot. A 5 gallon
pot (20l) is gonna be tall.

So you will have between 2 and 3 feet of growing space.

The pots I am using now are 10 inches tall. I won't use anything over a foot tall,
some of the more productive autos can get to be 3 feet.

So I will be using 3 gal pots (12l). I have a 3 gal Airpot I am going to try soon.
That's more than enough dirt for the size of your tent, and the lights.

This all comes down the the limiting factor. And for us that's the number of watts.

I have a seed order coming, it's a DP Autoblueberry, a SAD auto, and another AKR.

Hello Macbeth and Welcome :styles rasta: to the AFN Family. The HighRise Ghaze x C99 x C99 is a real easy Auto to grow with good yields you can check out my signature below where I grew one Scrog style and yielded a little over 3 oz with 150 watt HPS.:stylez rasta smoke:
 
Welcome, macbeth!
Sounds like you're getting plenty of feedback on your setup, lights and strains. :High 5:
my box is insulated and foiled completely
I would advise you to ditch the foil, my friend. It can create hot spots (burning your gals), and lining a space with conductive material might not be the safest bet. I like flat white paint, but even Mylar would most likely be a better choice.
Best of luck! :pass:
