The thing ya have to watch out for is the AF get very bushy and fill up space quickly....prepare, prepare, prepare....My 9 were all raised in a closet and around 20 days got so bushy I HAD to move them to my other location where I had more room.
The autos are a quick grow....being a first time grower and doing it cheap, I'm amazed it is so easy. Even florescent light is sufficient.....Mine are about 45 days old and thickening up with buds from head to toe.....
I have 8 seedlings of Onyx that are about 10 days old and aren't as far along as the lowryders were at that age, but I definitely am making plans for re-locating before I get as bushy as I did last month wiht the ryders.
Old, I disagree with them being bushy...I have some that are just one main cola, and basically growing straight upward. I dont have any that have really gone too far out past the diameter of the pot...It can happen however, but I wouldnt try to detour someone away bc it may be too bushy for their space, bc they can easily fit into anywhere...

PEACE BROTHERS....We must remember that like any family all may have the same parents but exhibit traits from other parts of the family besides just the immediate. TRUE, OldReefer, SOME autos get bushy (the AK47 is one good example) and yes MattyMatt, SOME autos are just one main cola. I have a different Afghan Kush Ryder than you in that mine IS indeed bushy (although not very healthy at the moment
) and in an earlier post you provided pix of yours which wasn't bushy at all. We all have had different experiences with these autos and that's the reason why We are here, right
!!! YOU ARE BOTH RIGHT!!!! GOOD LUCK AND GREAT GROWING TO THE BOTH OF YOU.

i plan on doing them in my veg room until sex shows then move the females with least side branching into my closet (with a 400 watter) and i will finish the really branchy ones with florecents afew inches from the top of'em.(my current plants have touched the bulb for hours with no problems at all)i have 3 4ft. fixtures 2 are-32wt5 (4 bulbs total) and the other is a 40wt12(2 bulbs) all 6 bulbs are plant & aqarium bulbs do you think i can produce a decently tighte bud with all 3 fixtures going?
im trying to do everything i can to have great grow, time and knowledge are priceless
Ill never regret the money i spent on cannabis books,
but this site puts everything you need/want out there.
im really baked
thanks

PEACE Case. That's GREAT news! It's good to see that you had a problem and they were committed to fix it for you. I trust that the others can learn from the example (bean co.'s and breeders) and stop trying to hold Us over a barrel over some beans because it is illegal. I trust that you will have great success with them when you do get them started.
as for mine, well it is still groing and budding up but I have been through a real rough patch with all of my autos and they are deficient in nitro and phosphorus but still budding up. I took a pic of the Afghan Kush Ryder today and it is not the greatest pic but it is a pic of her nonetheless. Kind words to her would be appreciated she needs all the support she can get. I estimate that she will be finished in another 3-5 weeks and then its back to the drawing board. I may get a few more because I love how she grows and if I had her right she'd be amazing looking right now. she branches out a bit but it is all good because it hasn't gotten too tall on me (last time I checked she was only 8in. tall) and I don't forsee her getting much bigger in height. Maybe another 5in or less upwards and more filling out I only hope.
Thanks for the sharing of the good news I could use it as my girls are rebelling against me for lack of nitrogen, but still growing (albiet slowly). BE SAFE AND GREAT LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PEACE I just wanted to get the real pix of the afghan kush ryda in so that it can get it's day in the sun. It isn't really big and I think it is because of some nute problems but I haven't figured it out yet. Anyone with any clues as to what is wrong, give it up. It is in it's 50th day today and these are some pix from random days up to today.
PEACE

afghan kush ryder...58 days old from seed...11.5 in tall..one nice thick resiny cola with a few side branches...smells sweet and looks phenominal.
Last pic is a top shot of an 84 day old EasyRyder who will play the main role in a Grim Reaper movie later this week.

PEACE MATTYMATT. I see what is good so need to ask that. Great job on the Afghan Kush ryder and the Easy Rider as well. Is the Easy rider really that big or did you add supplements and HID (400W+)? I as you can see from the pix, am dealing with the cfl's and I would love to get a yield like that even though it will dry mostly up and provide a small amount from what it came from it is still MUCH MUCH more than I expect off of my Ak47 autos and My Ryda die bitch.
. The Ryda die bitch is only 9 1/4 inches tall at 50 days and it is the fattest that I have which is not saying much so I am pretty jealous right now 
.LOL but seriously guys.....da ............BE SAFE AND KEEP IT UP MATTY

nice lookin ladies matty ive got 2 of my easyryders and one of my afghan kush ryder going right now the easyryders are a little over 2 weeks old and the afghan kush ryder isnt quite a week old yet, but both are doing great right now. I ended up getting 6 replacement seeds for the 3 afghan kush ryders that werent what they were supposed to be. Now i have 6 AFGHAN KUSH RYDER SEEDS!!! nice girls both you and messiah.
These are my 2 easyryders at 16 days and afghan kush at 5 days. One of the easyryders has already started showing signs of sex. I have also fimmed the easyryder that looks burnt and skimpy, but she is cathing up with the healthy one very quickly. My afghan kush ryder is doing great it is growing very quickly also. 1st pic is the healthy easyryder. second pic is the one that is burnt and skimpy, but cathing up. The third is of my afghan kush ryder at 5 days.

PEACE BRO. Nah it doesn't suprise me it is amazing what these plants can do given the proper diet and some TLC. Surely a bit of knowledge wouldn't harm you either but it is still the same. The results may not be the same but then again I have read posts that are saying that they are new to this and they are growing pounds. You seem to be intelligant and have an ear for advice, so it is not suprising in the least. You have done your girls well and they will repay you triple-fold in the end.
I will have a better system in a while
but, I am determined to figure the cfl thing out and grow just as big as with HIDs. This being the first grow with pro beans as well as the fact that I have yet until recently had a plant get out of the veg stage so I am learning and loving it. I am disappointed in the time and enegry spent for what looks to be very disappointing yeilds on my other plants, but I am happy about my "Ryda die bitch" because I got that one for ONLY ME (not the gf or homies just me when I want to get zoned
). She is looking great BTW. She has so many crysals on her it looks like it was snowed on, (lightly of course) and the buds are very compact. there aren't many big buds due to rookie error on my behalf yet they are looking great to me......
...
....and that is all that really counts in the end 
. I don't really know when she is supposed to be done but I will let her go at least 3 more weeks (or 20 days....she's at 52days now from seed>7 1/2 wks old). I trust that she will fatten up a bit near the end, which is my understanding of what happens to ganja in the last 2-3wks of life. Plus, I dont have a scope but the magnifier I do have allows me to see that the trichomnes are not amber as of yet, new pistals are still coming out and they haven't started to receed yet, so, I suppose that there is still plenty of time I left.Anyway here's a pic of her from today....................................

PEACE BTW the AFGHAN KUSH RYDER is in the foreground of the picture...the plant on the side behind it is a Poison Dwarf from G-13 Labs

PEACE MATTYMATT, What's good bro?! I had a few issues with the gf and long story short We harvested way too early and didn't even dry or cure it right.
I was disappointed in the fact of the harvest being early and not even handled in the right way, But on another note it was good for the quality that i had which was totally my fault. She was beautiful too with so much crystal production that it looked as though it was lightly snowed on and it was thick! Starting some AK47 autos and some Mango as well (the mango is a regular plant not auto.) so I will have to be patient and deal with this crop in a better fashion. AND MOST OF ALL KEEP THE GF AT BAY SO THERE WILL NOT BE ANOTHER EARLY HARVEST AND SMOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will be getting more Afghan Kush Ryder later on when the new AK47 autos are done (or very near it). Glad to hear about yours though. GOT PIX?!!!!!
BE SAFE AND KEEP IT GREEN
