Got my seeds from Dr. Chronic yesterday. Ordered them on the 6th and got them in the mail on the 10th.
I was looking for short plants. These are just for my personal amusement so I picked up:
AK47 X auto Blueberry F1
Cyber Crystal
Dr. Chronic's site said these are small plants. 12-18 inches for AK47xBB. They weren't specific about the cyber crystal. Can anyone confirm that?
Thanks, C.H.

Never heard of Cyber Crystal - do you know the breeder?
Anyways, have fun with that man, Dr. Chronic rules.
Also, keep in mind, when you're ready to try new strains, that you can always grow short plants by training them and by also giving them a shorter vegetative state. This way, you can try any kick ass strain and still have small plants - usually, most of them that are sold as autoflowering or really small plants won't have the best potency, but I'm sure these ones will still get the job done just fine.

Nope I don't know the breeder. I'm totally new to this stuff. I don't know a thing about what I'm doing. I just thought it would be best to start small literally and figuratively.
As for cloning I'm neither that advanced nor do I have the space for more plants.
Thanks for the tips on training. As for starting plants into flowering early, I keep reading that the plant is mature enough for flowering once it reaches 12 inches. Is that the earliest you can introduce the plant into flowering or can it be done sooner if the plant is supposed to be a small plant?

Well, autoflowering plants are going to start flowering regardless of light cycles, but with regular plants, if you want to grow them smaller, you can just start them on 12 hours of light/12 hours of darkness from the beginning. If you started flowering a 12" plant, typically, once it stops stretching and begins bud production, it could be 24" to 36", as they usually double or triple their size once you flip the lights over.

I ordered a pack of Auto Lemon Skunk from Sensibleseeds.com, said it reaches a height of 14" so I thought it would be perfect. Autoflowering sounds like the way to go for a beginner like me and also since I am growing for personal use only so the yield won't be a big deal to me, even though the more the better. The downer is Sensibleseeds cancelled my order because they are out of Auto Lemon Skunk, so I checked Dr. Chronic OUT so now I am searching again.

Cool! So you can run 12 and 12 any time then regardless of strain. Thanks for the help!

20-4 is supposed to be ideal with auto flowers me thinks.

Finally found some seeds at Attitude Seeds, I also got the autoflower but White Russian fems. I wanted Lemon Skunk but it's sold out everywhere. Anyways back to why i'm posting on Attitude it says 24/0 lighting for autoflowering. Also says keep the soil from drying out and you should be problem free such the time period for autoflowering is so short.

Lowlife suggests 20-4, I don't really know what is best.

Cyber Crystal is KC Brains I believe.
Yep, it is http://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/kc-brains-cyber-crystal-3021-p.asp
Also says it'll grow to 1.5 meters indoors, but you can cut that down by flowering clones right after they root.

I can't speak to the over all quality yet but KC Brains seeds are very viable. Every single one has popped and rooted. I just did something along the way to kill each one. I'm going to order from them again. Probably this week end. Thanks again for the help everyone.

if you are using a grow tent, I've heard the newer ones were recalled because of issues with the construction materials and other people were saying that the plants in the grow tent always died... so maybe you are having similar issues..??

Can these seeds be obtained in the US? Because most of these places say no delivery to the US. So if you are in the states please share with a noob. Thanks for your replies. Btw, I already checked the vendors link but it goes nowhere.
