Sour 60 male pollen questions/ breeding autos

I plan on running some sour 60's in a veg room.
If i like the sour 60's i know i can let one male chuck some pollen and i will have plenty of seeds for the future as they are priced too high to buy seeds everytime.

But If i coss a sour 60 male to another (non-auto)strain such as Mr. Nice Black Widow will the resulting seeds be autos or would i have to backcross the new seeds with a sour60 female to make it auto?

The only males i can get will be sour 60 males as i only have one flower room and i do not allow males in it period. Once they are sexxed as male they are out. But i thought i could play a little with sour60 pollen as it will be in a veg room so i can harvest the pollen without seeding a whole crop in the flower room.

so
sour60 male x black widow female = auto? or non?
if non

sour60 male x bl widow female
then resulting offspring female x sour 60 male= auto?

or in other words can i make other autos with no non auto males?
thanks

Neither scenario will give you 100% auto offspring. This question has been asked a million times... Do a a little research and you will learn a lot. Backcrossing with your sour60 will only give you 50% that autoflower. Inbreed the ones that auto and the subsequent generation should be 100% auto.

yeah, i did some reading today including history of "ruderalis"
Back crossing probably multi x would be needed. However, im free to just make s60 seeds with ease and if i do pollinate a few others then backcross i might make some auto.

looks like neville did alot of experiments in the beginning. Looks like its come a long way. Autos will still be secondary for me but its getting interesting. And i know im not the first to put them in the veg room for some early smoking while waiting on others
