Whats up brother! I've been here a while but didn't start posting much until a couple months ago when I noticed there was a Michigan forum here. Still stuck on the AK-47, I just can't seem to find any other strains I like growing as much as I do this one lol. I gave up on The Jeffrey, it was an amazing strain but I didn't like the way it grew. Its stretch was insane, if I did a 2-3 week veg I'd end up with 6 foot tall plants that shadowed out my AK's... Not sure whats up with planet skunk, I know it crashed a while ago but I'm pretty sure last time I was there I sent you a pm because I had a couple extra clones to give away, not sure if you ever got it.
I didn't even know they had a Michigan forum lol . . . Is that ak-47 from serious seeds? I've always wanted to grow some, have you got it tested yet? Yeah the jeffereys was a beast and had a nice color to it. Once I found RIU i just left, there is not as much traffic on Planet skunk, threads were pretty much dead. Here there is thread after thread lol and nah I didnt get the pm but i definitely would have taken some.

Just wanted to give a quick update. I've been really struggling with some health problems over the last week. I've been barely had the strength to even walk and might be checking myself into the hospital tomorrow depending on some test results. Needless to say my garden hasn't gotten any attention at all lately and is suffering...

Thanks for your concerns everybody! I spent a little time in the hospital but now i'm doing a lot better. I've been unable to really do anything in the garden for the last two weeks but i did have a family member top off my buckets with water for me to keep the plants from dying. Feeding instructions or even PH adjusting the water seemed to be a little too complex for my helper so my plants have basically had nothing but tap water for last couple weeks. This caused the plants to really yellow up and drop a bunch of leaves but for the most part the buds still all look good.
I went into the garden yesterday for the first time in weeks with the intention of feeding nutes to the plants but instead spent almost 2 hours removing dead leaves and stringing up branches that were falling over and literally snapping under the weight of the buds. I ended up losing one big AK-47 branch that snapped clean off the main stalk of the plant and was just hanging by a string of bark/stem while laying against the room floor. After all of that i was just too exhausted to feed the plants but i will get that done today. I'll get a real update with new pics within the next couple days.

Huel, get yourself some of this.....http://shop.ubiogrow.net/main.sc
They should have it at your hydro store. This stuff can turn around some sick plants quick. Its great, and you can't mess up the amount you give them. I had a hose get kinked somehow in my ebb-n-gro, and by the time I realized what happened, that plant was damn near dead. I fed it some of this, and back to life it came. It was all but gone too man.

12/23 Today is day day 49 for the AK-47 and Cheesequake, day 42 for the Cannatonic.
The Cheesequake is looking pretty close to being done, not sure how much longer i'm going to let it go. I've read a ton of stories on TGA strains (including Cheesequake) having hermi problems late in flowering so might harvest them right when they hit 8 weeks rather than trying to squeeze a few extra days in but it really depends how ready they look next week. At this point i have not seen any male flowers, knock on wood...
The AK-47 still have another 2-3 weeks to go. The buds are really fat and stinky already but since i've grown this strain many times before i know that in the next couple weeks they will really fatten up and even start to foxtail.
The Cannatonic still has another 3-4 weeks left but is showing real promise! The buds have a very sweet lemon smell just like lemon Pledge.
