Indoor and outdoor grow. Where to put the "good" seeds?

So I'm planning on growing between 3 and 6 plants both inside and outside for my first grow. I'm starting them all under an 85w UFO LED light and moving a few outdoor once they're strong. The remainder are going to be kept under the light for the duration of the grow. I have 5 feminized auto seeds and 10 seeds from bags. Does it matter where the "good" seeds go? They're the "blue mystic" strain from Nirvana.

Thank you!

If it were me, I would probably do the autos outside. Unless you know that the other strain you're growing can finish flowering before the cold, rainy weather comes, you run the risk of either having to chop early, or losing it to mold. I guess it also really depends where you live, but I've experienced this first hand, and believe me, it sucks throwing away piles and piles of moldy bud.

Like CC Dobbs said, the sun can do a much better job than some grow lights, but just take into consideration how long it's going to take to finish.

Autos outdoors definatley. They are short and stealth. You can play god with the "good ones" indoors. Photoperiod plants also take longer so depending on your growing season you may not have suffient time.

Indoor stealth is a much much bigger issue than outdoor stealth. Also, I'm only home from mid-may to mid-august so time is an issue. My priority is survival rather than yield lol. Are the autos more likely to die inside or outside?

Yeah no kidding. I'm a college student so it's all I have. Will they grow faster inside or outside? Also, will there even be time?

With that amount of time...not photoperiod plants. Most autos are seed to chop around 70 days friend.

Naturally photoperiod plants grow faster indoors where you control the "sun" as opposed to being outdoors at the mercy of the real bright thing in the sky. I would suggest doing a few autos indoors in your situation.

Agreed, I killed $60 worth of seeds last year by having 5 plants under one 26W 2700k CFL lmfao they didn't stand a chance. Thank's for the help!

Honestly, I would put the good seeds (Your autos) indoor as they will be prime genetics. Then, throw all of your bag seed outside, as they are crippled genetics that came from a slightly hermied plant.. Thus, not worth the indoor effort if they end up hermying, or just end up being crappy genetics that just don't produce as much regardless of the love and care.. That is my advice. However, the autos will flower on their own outdoor, so it depends on if you want to wait 3-6 months for your outdoor to be done. Or if you want to flower your bag seed indoor since you can control the flowering period, and then have the autos grow outside and be done in around the same time your indoor is. Purely depends up to you.
