I put them in the window sill only when it got sunny (I live in London, so not too often!) But most of the first 2 weeks they were under a 200W CFL Envirolite then switched to the 400W HPS. Starting them under a 400W MH conversion won't kill them at all, just keep it further away than usual...

No, got 10 x Auto AK47's from Dr Chronic. Could have some males in there and I do intend to breed at some point.

Your plants look good, a little stretchy as mentioned. Definitely re-pot them asap. I think LED's are a great addition to a HID grow, but as a stand alone light source they just don't quite cut it. These are my Auto AK's after 2 weeks under a 200W CFL Envirolite, just before I switched to a...

Welcome to RIU. The 2 AK's were AK47 x Lowryder NON feminised, just lucky to get 2 females :)

Blaze, that's enough to send everyone on RIU a good spliff :joint:

Try fimming + LST, heres a really good guide Have a look at his monster bushy plants, think he got about 6lb off 3 plants! Got to be the best I've ever seen. I usually go for LST myself, but will be trying a fim next grow. Good luck

Congratulations! Now I'm really looking forward to some pics.

^^ that's exactly how I judge my watering schedule. Never had any problems.

If you look at the grow journal in my sig, you'll see I got 304g dry (with stems) with 1 Lowryder2 & 2 Auto AK47's, amazing yeild! and I used 20/4 through-out the grow with a 400w HPS (200w CFL Envirolite for the first 2 weeks). The seed website; Doctor Chronic, also recommends 20/4. Start your...

RIU has gone auto crazy! subscribed

Always good advice. You don't even need a microscope, I use a jewellers loupe off ebay, 30X I think, works just fine. Hairs are no indication of maturity, trichs are.

Thanks potpimp, The smoke is great too. I would love to see your grow, especially with a 400w HPS vs LED, that would be very interesting. From what I've seen, nothing quite beats HPS as yet. Post a link to your journal when you get it going. Peace

I always allow my plants to dry out between watering, it allows oxygen to get to the roots. If you must use MG soil, you need to be very carefull, it's not usually recommended for growing MJ. Judge when your plants need watering by the weight of the pot, not how dry the top is, the leaves will...

I think that the MG Organic is too strong for your young plant, give it a good flush. If it was light burn, the leaves would be brown.

I was under the impression that the idea of flushing was to remove all nutrients hence the yellowing / browning of the leaves in the last week. They use up the last of their reserves. Or I am mistaken?

That does look very tasty.. Tahoe58, did you give your plants ample flushing, the leaves still look a bit too green for my liking. The trich' density looks great yummy. Just smoking my 400W grown auto Ak47. Have a grin like a cheshire cat and if I was any more relaxed I would liquify...

One thing I did find, as my extract fan got hotter, it eventually slowed down and stopped alltogther! Had to buy a newer / better fan after about 2 weeks. Even this fan slows down as it gets hotter, guess it's the metal contacts expanding with the heat. Just be aware of this if you're going to...

I bought a cheap Fan controller off ebay for £7 (about $11) Works a treat and cuts out a load of noise not having fans run full speed. I also built a silencer box out of wood and lined it with strips of rubber to absorb noise, you can see a pic of this in my grow journal linked to in my sig...

hmmmm..... buds
