There are thousands of great strains out there that breeders have taken years to develop and stabilize. Pick one and get some grows under your belt. Figure out what you like and how you want to grow. I wouldn't even be considering breeding at this point. If you are hoping to get autos, you will most likely be sorely disappointed. Every seed will be a crap shoot. If you want to grow autos, look for and buy a good stable strain and give it a go. I am not a fan of autos, but some folks love them (mostly people who have never grown photoperiod plants). I didn't quite understand this though "...autos just seem to intrigue me as you can just throw them on."? If you want to grow photoperiod plants, then grow those and learn to clone. Forget about breeding until at least you have a few grows under your belt. There is a big learning curve to this. So far we have only talked about your lighting and see how many posts that has taken. We also have ventilation, pots, medium, method of growing, nutrients, pH, PPMs, etc, etc. Cannabis can be finicky there is a learning curve to this hobby.
