Need help/advice on FIRST pc autoflower grow!

I've decided to take a shot at doing an autflower grow in a pc grow case....but have a few questions that i need some insight on. First off, i have a well-built pc grow case (pictures will be up shortly) that meets all mandatory growing measures, but there's a few things i am uncertain of. I would ideally like to do 2 plants at a time, but am unsure if this is feasible or possible. I know the size of the plant depends on many things, but has a great deal of of an impact on the size of the pot it's grown in. I was wondering if it would be better to do a large plastic container, filling most of, if not all of the bottom space of the grow case or do 2 smaller pots consuming most of the bottom area? I recently puschased 2 different types of autoflowering seeds from Nirvana seeds bank (Blue Mystic and Bubbleliscious). I would like to grow both at the same time, to try both out, but don't know what would be better. I should add that i'm looking for quality over quantity, but it would be nice to have the best of "both" worlds if you know what i mean ha.

Basically im running 2 computer fans, a larger intake than my out take, and have a 4" oscillating fan inside sitting on the bottom. I will be using FoxFarm Ocean Forrest potting soil mixed w/ 1/3 part pearlite. I will be using the Trio foxfarm nute set (Grow Big, Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom) for nutrients. Florakleen will be used for flushing periods. There are 3 26w 2700k flourescents and 3 26w 6500k flourescent bulbs (4 are used at a time). My second question, is what lights should be used during the life cycle and when and/or if they need to be changed at all?

Lastly, if i am constrained to grow only one of the 2 strains, which would you recommend, based off personal experience? I've heard great things about bot, but also some cons. I tended to read more positive attributes associated with Blue Mystic, as well as more frequency in search results when reading further up on the starin.

Any in put would be great!
Thanks
