400 Watt options, Autos or early flower? Yeild most important

I have a 400 watt lamp and a couple of questions!

This will be my third grow, my first was Lowryder 2 and the second was A.M.S (ended up doing them inside, were meant for out but Ireland's shit weather changed that!).

I made a few mistakes (Like no airflow in a wardrobe!) but I'm pretty confident I know enough now. I also got nice buds out of my grows, very small nice buds. :-|

Anyway, I'm hitting '09 with a vengence.

I want to get the most weed I can out of 400 watts. I was thinking maybe 40 (female) Lowryder AK47s, but an idea got me today.

Would I get a bigger yeild for less money (seeds) if I were to use a 6 week flowering indica and flower after 3-4 weeks?
Same amount of plants about 40.

Any other ideas I havent thought of?
 
If you want to really make money you have to flip clones, nothing from seed. How much work are you willing to do ea day?
 
Grow space can be constructed very easy, just planning it out now man so hit me with suggestions, Cr8z13!

OregonMeds, I will do all the work it takes, I'm unemployed and leaning very so towards shamanism as a religion. You can take that to mean I love psychoactive plants and want to do all I can to grow them! :weed:

Merry Christmas if you swing that way fellas!! :joint:
 
You'll get a shitload from 40 autos but I think the quality and taste is something to be desired. If your willing to care for 40 midgets, why not several regulars?

I would do the normal strains.

So if I were to grow 40 female regular strains like an Afghan or some other indica would it be possible an yeild an ounce of each under a 400watt HPS?

I'm pretty sure this would be the case with the Lowryders.

Also, between the Lowryder 2 and the A.M.S from Greenhouse Seeds, the Lowryder 2 won on every count. High was waaaaay better and stronger, ease of grow, speed, smell, taste, everything. I'm only thinking about AK Lowryder because everything is meant to be even better.

I'm aware though it would be alot cheaper for me to buy a couple feminised indica beans, pick a mother and clone. Alot cheaper....decisions.
 
From what I remember, Lowryders and AK's aren't known as huge producers anyway, you would do better to grow six or eight indicas for production, and plant a few of the Autoflowers beginning and mid planting for stuff while you wait.
