I'm planting a few freebie auto seeds for the 1st time...after they sprout and I transplant....should I use MH for a while or go straight to HPS ?...it's says 70 days from seed.

Go MH for first 4 weeks and then HPS to harvest. Or you could just get something like Philips greenpower Hps that is enhanced also with a little extra blue, they are the best HID bulb IMHO :-)

I have the hortilux dual spectrum, but it's being used....I was going to do these seperate from my other grow...
I have an extra 400w, I think I'll run a HPS in that along with the MH, then go all HPS after a few weeks.

Thanks...I was hoping for these to finish by Christmas...but it's not looking to good now..lol

don't transplant the auto's - just start them in your finishing pot..

use teh MH for a few weeks then switch...
