Can a female autoflower be inseminated by a bag seed male??

I will be getting a grow tent and all the lights and filters I'll need in a couple weeks (my wife's Christmas present to me.) Because this will be a couple weeks before I get the autoflower seeds I plan on ordering I thought I would start vegging some bag seed I have under a 400watt metal halide and then add the autoflowers for a week or so. Because this will be my first well equipped grow I might miss a male bag seed. Could it inseminat a female autoflower??

Yes they can pollinate them. But just how in the hell are you going to miss a male in a tent? You'd have to not step inside your tent for a good week or 2 after flipping to 12/12 to miss a male. And even then it takes time for the pollen sacks to be ready to knock up your girls. Every regular seed I've grown males were dropping balls before the females were even showing a week or so prior. So no worries man. Get the ball rolling. And nowadays most bagseed are from a stray nanner on a female. Unless it's some mexishwag or something.

That makes sense. I know the odds of me missing a male would be highly unlikely. I just wanted to be safe....just in case.
