 auto strain cross with each other??

i am interested in getting several different AF strains and seed them out. my question is can one cross any or all of the auto flowerers (eg,auto ak47X auto lemon skunk) and get 100% auto seeds??

Do some reading on Mendelian Genetics and you'll find out that it's very hard for anything concerning offspring and allel combinations to be 100%, but it CAN be done.

Depending on which strain you use, yes or no. Simply put, you just have to back cross.
Auto ak47 X auto lemon skunk
Grow out 16 plants; just to make sure you don't overlook any unwanted phenotypes.
Cross the AF offspring together. Discard unwanted phenotypes immediately.
Keep back-crossing until you stabilized your hybrid. Soon, your hybrid will be sturdy, hardy, and 100% AF.
Some AF crosses will produce 100% AF; pretty sure.
It's been a long time since I lurked at highbred, the ICMAG of AF strains, so my info could be a bit outdated.

so basically if i want to grow an autoF for seeds the best/easy way is just to stick to the X's already available. thanks

Sure. I mean you could make your own crosses. But don't be so sure that the offspring will be 100% AF.

thanks. just seemed in my head that crossing 2 auto strains would more likely then not give you auto seeds.

It will be at least 50% depending on genetics.
