You'll end up with AutoAK 2209. (kidding) Should be fine, I believe, but I don't often work with auto flowering breeds on purpose.

Dutch: From what I understand:
1. Depends on the source/breeder. I believe the reputable breeders back-cross in an attempt to stabilize a hybrid strain so that the future offspring are consistent. For how many generations it remains consistent, I have no idea. I do know I finally had sucess breeding (virtually all of) the Early Wonder out of a Swazi (sativa skunk) x Early Wonder (auto-flower) cross I had. No more auto-flowering skunk.

2. With the lights I use, I usually get pollen sacks opening by the fourth or fifth week. Results will vary depending on strain.

3. Since I only let a male grow in emergencies, I apply pollen with a small horsehair artists brush, on lower branches (actually, the pistols) of my fems as soon as it's collected. Usually, tho...I stress a female, for her pollen.
