Hello everyone im thinking of getting 6 different femenized seeds from attitude seedbank to grow in my cool cab system,the seeds i want are: Lowlife automatic ak47 auto-flowering, White widow, Strawberry cough, G13 haze, Blueberry and African kush. I need experts advice. Can i grow allthes strains in the same system? do you think this is a good choice to grow in the same coolcab system? Or maybe I wil get the bloombox from http://bcnorthernlights.com which do you think will be better to grow all these strains in the same system? Thanks I appreciate your help!!!:bigjoint:

I believe you mean Afghan Kush, not African. Afghan would be my choice, in fact I'm growing some right now. It's a fairly newb-friendly plant. I already gave advice on which system to get in one of your other topics. I wouldn't grow several strains in one system. Stick to one. Not all strains take nutrients the same way. You should get some experience under your belt before you attempt to juggle too many plates at once.

If you are going to get different strains make sure they have similar flowering times, unless you are using different trays and reservoirs for the different strains.

You don't want one strain to be ready for flush and harvest a week off when the others might have a few weeks. If that happens and you're using the same reservoir for all the strains you will have to make the choice whether to not flush the early bloomer or start flushing and cut off all nutes to the ladies who are still maturing.

You've gotten some excellent advice so far. The AK-47 would be a good choice as well. I wouldn't grow any hazes in that mix though. WAY too much stretch and a much longer flowering time as well. Try to find out if the G13 in the haze cross speeds up the flowering time and keeps the plant short. Otherwise, forget it.

to be honest... if your still a "newb" new to growing I wouldn't go with 6 different strains... I would pick one that is very forgiving and go from there, or if you have a few grows under your belt try 2 different strains... different strains demand different things, react differently and grow at different rates... you'll have your hands full

Absofreakin'lutely!!! I've been at this awhile, and I'm doing 2, and that can be 3 too many..when you're trying to do different types of grow as well. It alsodepends on what type of buzz you want..up=Sativa..body= Indica.Imo the Dwarfs are not really good for first time growers, and NOT to be grown in the same room with any other breed as they are ENTIRELY different. Please read up on the breeds you want first. The dwarfs are cool though.

I've not read everything in this thread but I understand what people are saying - keep it simple your first time with 1 strain, then next time maybe try 2...

I've read Autoflowers don't need to go down to 12/12 either, that'll maybe cause problems too...I reckon you should MAYBE think about going all auto on your first go (its supposed to be much easier...) - I dunno how much you smoke but if you get a harvest off your first go then say screw up the 2nd one you at least shouldn't be dry
