    3 royal dwarf autos- yield 150-200g square metre
    1 northern lights auto- yield 450-500 square metre
    Both by royal queen seeds, coming up week 13 since dropped seeds in, 1 royal ready in a week or so and the others maybe another 2-3, yield for the dwarves is looking pretty good considering there size, way out of the park of seed to harvest though, under LED lighting, one viparspectra actual draw 260w and one mars actual draw 114w....personally I'd do autos again, just not these ones, other members here have some amazing results with there's though

    Thanks for the quick reply, blimey northern lights looks like a good one, ok so there still not 10 weeks start to finish? I would like to use led last time I used 250hps in cool tube was getting 3 oz off one plant , but heat was always an issue! How do u find the led lights? Maybe they take longer than hps?

    I would recommend the LSD auto from Barneys Farm, or Blackberry Auto Seeds from Fast Buds, you won't go wrong with either of those strains in my opinion.

    Classic auto strain that I always recommend would be the Lowryder #2

    Light schedule - 24/0 produces fantastic results ..but really it's a growers personal choice, just don't go lower than 18/6 and you'll be fine.

    In terms of HID or LED, either (or a mix of both) do well just make sure to invest in decent quality LEDs

    You don't get much heat off of LED's but this really does vary on the type of LED you buy..generally they produce a lot less than HID.

    Would depend on your grow area..

    To give you some idea, feel free to ask Vivid LED some questions, they are a sponsor here..but will help with giving you an idea of what you might be looking at in terms of sizing and price (much better than I can) - Linky

    Sorry slow reply dude, I personally like the vipar, the Mars is borrowed, I know vivid led make some supreme boards and I will be investing soon, as ice said though get some good genetics and you'll be alright, I'm not very knowlegable on LED and grow space dimensions but I'd take a shot in the dark and say the 150w board from vivid would do that space nicely, I'm sure someone more experienced will shed some light, as for price I'd take the vivid over the vipar too
