im not sure if autos have special needs.. but if it was me i would go with the largest pot you can fit in your tent.

others who have grown autos will have better help.
hope you have a successful grow. dirt is cheap man, use it. considering how much herb would cost you on the street yeah?
rock on,
chris.

grew my first grow of northern lights in 3 gallon pots (not auto flower) i don't think they were big enough, i will use 5 gallon next time, but as i bought auto flower seeds by mistake i heard the pots don't have to be so big as the veg period is short.
anyone done auto flower?

I use 3 gal pots for autos myself....for their life cycle its just the right size in my opinion...i did a nl auto in a 1 gal pot with lots of feeds and it was a monster though....but it took a lot of waterings....a lot

Most autos mature in 70 days. More or less. A 3 gallon pot is plenty for auto flowers. And many Indica strains. sativas take longer so for sativas use 5-7 gallon pots.

I can get photo NL in canada easy too..seems like a popular strain for new growers...very forgiving and they take a beating and dont herm..for me anyway. Not new at growing but its always nice to have a plant around thats not too fussy

Depends on how big you want your plant a longer Taproot will give you a bigger plant. You can run it under 24-hour light and pretty much keep it in veg as well.

Maybe with a photoperiodical plant. Autos don't stay in veg, no matter how long you keep your light on
