Recommendations for Northern Lights Autoflower.

Hey Guys Im a newbie at growing and for my Upcoming Grow i plan to use a autoflower strain because of my limited grow space.

My Current Lists of Strains i wanna grow (only planing to grow 1)

1) Nirvana Northern Lights autoflower strain.

2) SamsaraSeeds: Flash-Babylon-Automatic

3) Buddha: White Dwarf ( Not NL as far as I know, but in my list for consideration)

Now i have never grown from either of these seed banks and I am Looking for the Best strain possible with the Strongest High. I am very skeptical about Nirvana because of its low prices.

Buddha white dwarf looks like a nice strain but i dont know its genetics and really could not pull much information about the strain.

As far as Samsara Seeds Flash bablyon is a NL x Lowryder mix, but again i am skeptical about the genetics and the company.

Please if you guys know anything about these strains and can give me good information about them like (smell, high, height etc) it will be very helpful for my experience and joy of growing some nice weed. Also please leave any info about the Seed companies and your personal experiences with these strains or seed companies. Most of all i care about which strain has a very strong high. Thanks for your time and help =)

Order attitude dude. Way stealthier and you can getta nice tshirt for $10 lol

You do not have to grow an auto-flowering strain to have short plants. There are a number of shorter growing strains and you can start them out in a 12/12 flowering light cycle if you need to keep them even shorter.

Or you can go a different route and use a growing technique like SCROG and keep your plants low and improve your yields.

I agree with Bricktop here, go with reg' beans and LST or something, as I know from personal exp that Nirvanas "Auto" Northern DONT flower auto, mine was at 20 weeks from seed when I harvested her!! It grew to over 6"ft tall too same as my Auto Jock Horror, my Auto Bubblicious was a little smaller at just over 5"ft tall!! Both these were at 20 weeks from seed too when harvested. I have space to cope with them but if I'd grown them in a tent/closet I'd have been fucked!!

They didn't flower till I switched light cycle to 12/12!! I even tried doin what Nirvana suggested on their site but nothing happened till I switched over lights

I'm currently growing Nirvana NL AF, There are some problems with the genetics but i haven't expirenced any yet. Read crypnotics thread to see what happens with their bad genetics, he went 8 weeks veg because they wouldn't AF on 20/4 and had to flip them 12/12. I flipped mine 12/12 after 31 days from seed to avoid that problem. the only thing is you sacrifice on yield. On the upside nirvana dealt with the situation quickly and credited me with1 free pack of seeds.

Brick top is right you can grow with regular beans but even with 12/12 they'll get pretty big. If your growing space is really limited then do LST OR take the easy route and grow an autoflower.
And skunkmunk are you serious? Lol i just ordered some nl's for an aerogarden grow. If they get 5ft+....i dont know what im gonna do lol

First off i would like to thank everyone for commenting.

I would like to state at first the reason why i wanted auto flower plants is because they grow short, but apparently not.

The 12/12 cycle seems interesting to me, i did not know that you can start to use this cycle from the start directly.

Yes and i have read that Nirvana is having a lot of problems with there AF's.

I cannot have plants growing 5ft in my grow spot but i guess i will have to look in LST or SCROG. Could anyone link me maybe to a direct page on how it explains how to do LST, SCROG

I guess i will have to rethink about what strains i will grow, but definitely going to try a 12/12 grow because i need super short plants like a dwarf.

I have regies of WW x SW (sweet tooth) but this strain grows tall.

Thanks for the help guys =), I will gladly accept more suggestions and tips for a better grow and personal experience with plants =)
