Greetings!

Well I am in a situation here,

I started growing 10 plants almost a week ago(I aquired the seeds from a bag I purchased), and they seem to be growing just fine. Today, I purchased some femenized autoflowering Afghan Kush seeds, and some New York 47 seeds came free with it. I would like to grow the NY 47 and Afghan as soon as it arrives, but my grow space is currently being occupied by the unknown seeds. I am using two 6500K and one 2700K 26 watt CFL's for lighting. I have my plants on a 18/6 schedule. I do not have another place to grow the seeds I purchased today, or any more grow lights. So would it be possible to grow the autoflowering Afghan Kush and the New York 47(Photoperiod) with the plants I am currently growing and using the same light schedule?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Yes but your yield will not be nearly as great. Of course you'll veg your photos a couple weeks but your autos will doo much better in constant 20/4 lite.

10 plants seems like a lot for 3 small CFL's. You'll have better results if you're not so greedy.

Too many plants under a small amout of lighting.....but yes, the autos will do their thing regardless of light periods although yeild will suffer with less than 20/4...that being said, I regularly grow autos alongside flowering photos under 12/12, 400w hps and always get over an oz from my autos...improve your lighting, along with verntilation to handle increased heat...and you'll be fine...

indeed was just about to say you have far to many plants for the amount of lights you have
ther ejust isnt enough light for the plants to grow big enough,why not grow out these bagseeds, and then do the auto's

You bet. Fill that big tent with that much light. Wear sunglasses when working with lights on.
