Lowryder vs 12/12

Ok, I have a small grow space, only about 2 feet hight of grow room. Now, I want to buy lowryder or some other feminized autoflowering plant, but was wondering if I will get the same effect from just flowering 12/12 from seed of a regular seed. The reason is, lowryder feminized seeds are freaking expensive compared to their counterpart, and I need 10 of them. Can someone shed some light.

Id assume lowryder would have a better yield. Also if you can get your hands on some ak47 or other hybrid lowryder.

Im sure the lowryder would give a good yield for what I doing. But any experience with 12/12 under a 400 w hps with a regular seed. And if so, how big where you plants at the end, and what the strain is.

I'm doing the same thing. Ihave 2 strawberry cough seeds that I am trying 12/12 from seed with. I am on week 1. They have sprouted and are 2 inches high. I am only using 4 CFL's though. My other problem is I can't get the light closer than 4 inches away so they are stretching. But I will keep you updated. Cause i was thinking about the lowryder's too but they are too costly so Iam just ryign the 12/12
but my other 2 foot baby is starting to bud so I can always fall back on her:weed:

I have no experience in that area but the common sense answer would be to go with the lowryders. I mean if the 12/12 on a regular strain works well then what was the point of creating the lowryder? lol

You might think about not getting feminized lowryder seeds so you can do a seed run and not pay out the ass everytime you want to grow some lowryders out..

some strains 12/12 from seed yield more, or about the same as Lowryders.. The point of the Lowryder is that it flowers automatically, not dependent on light schedule. Planting outside is good because they remain short, and you can have a few harvests per year.

really,, so if I wanted could I keep a couple sog plants under 12 inches and still get a good harvest. I have width and length but not hight. Plus im using a 400w cooled in a small grow box I built
