yeah bro. jus got back from the hydro shop. i already got the 4x4x7 from cali for like 129 a tent. i have two tents goin at two different spots. one tent at my spot an da otha at my ladies. i also have 2 brand new 600 watters from htgsupply cool tubes. i am growing 5 fem aks in each tent. i am also planting one dieasel ryder and one blueryder in each tent along with the fems. after talkin to u i may up it to 7 plants per tent. i want to get maximum light to those 7 plants as possible. man i had a field day at brew and grow here in chicago. there sight is altgarden.com. i picked up 4 bags all mix biobizz soil and two bags ocean forest. the nutes i got is biobizz bloom, biobizz topmax, and biobizz fish mix. never tried fish mix before but i here the plant loves it. the only thing im missing now is 2 six inch inline fans that im picking up this coming friday. damn fans are 215 a piece at the hydro shop but i need um for my cool tubes. im startin the seeds after germination in rapid rooter plugs. im really hopin for at least 1 1/2 ounces per plant period which should give me close to a pound harvest every two months. at400 to 500 an oz here and thats a deal, i can make an extra 40 grand a year under da table ya know. oh yeah, im usin 3 gallon grow bags as well. any input would be nice. im open to all help.

best thing to do kushy is start a step by step journal with plenty of pics. people can help you along the way.
I've personally have never sold a single gram of weed, but my smoking friends are always happy when the go home with a fat bud of my home grown :)

yup, my aks are fems and i have two packs of 5 from lowlife via da tube. i also have 1 pack of ten blueryder an 1 pack of ten diesel ryder. how many autos can i get under600watts witout compromising density and yield much. i was initially goin with 6 plants per tent under 600 hondo. i will pick up some root stim this week wen i go to pick up my two inlines. ill start the journal as soon as i get my two inlines this week. only things im missin to get started really. and yeah it shud be a cool journal with pics cuz im doin to tent grows at the same time just at two different spots. each tent with the same variables as the next setup. i did buy two bags of ffof to see how well it works compared to biobizz all mix. but yea bro how many autos do u think i should grow under 600 watts per tent?

whats your floor space? I'm no expert, but to give you an idea, the plants in this journal were grown in an area a little under 3ft x 2ft.
As you can see, I really couldn't fit any more than 3 auto's in it. If I grow a non auto, I only grow 1.
hope that helps.

Assuming your tent is for both veg and flower ill state the following. I bought some lowrider seeds and got a free dinafem blue widow and dinafem blue hash. These are probably the same from the same descrete place of acquiring. On my first lowrider it got 3 ft tall and 3 ft wide in a dwc system with nutrients puming thru its veins like Arnold Schwazenerer on a unlimited supply of steroids. That was my last grow. One my current grow I have 6 lowriders in spereate 1/2 gallon pots.

I would not want to grow any lowriders with any other seeds (momentarily) unless it would be a short bonsi mother plant. because, if the freebies grew biggger then the others then they could easily out power them for the light (unless you do some trimming or training).

To answer your question... it depends on how big your going to grow them. My 1 enormous 3 ft tall giant lowrider took up the whole 400HPS light system. But my 6 small bushy smelly lowriders can fit under my light and i could probably get 12 lowriders of the same size under a 400MH light.

It all depends my friend

the tent is 4x4x7 and i have ten fem auto aks. so since they are big yielders i will shoot for five in each tent? wut do u guys think about that. pics coming soon as i germ. im waitin on my inline fan to get here so i can crank up the cooltube. i thought i was gonna have to pay 215 a piece for the vortex ones at my local hydro shop but i found a dealer on ebay who has the 6inch for 130 so for the price of 1 at my local shop im getting two from ebay. i was a few days away from buyin 2 fans for 215 a pice wo/tax, im so glad i did some homework. green earth, i bought 2 bags of fox farm OF to see how well it does compared to the biobizz im usin. so yeah i dont want to cram um up so ill stay with that number

thanks guys. the smoke is great too. Highly recommended.
Not mind blowingly powerful (thankfully) but perfect after a hard days work. Very smooth flavour and a potent smell after a couple of months curing.

have you had the regular ak 47 if so how is that compared to the auto version? I hear the autos is a step down but not to bad of a product to be looked down upon.

Have never tried AK47 (non auto) but yes, you are correct.
Auto strains are slightly less potent than there non auto counterparts from what I've read.
But if that is true of the AK47, then I think regular AK47 would put me on my arse as the auto AK is pretty strong IMO. Any of my friends who come around for a smoke always leave very stoned and amazed at the quality of my homegrown!
I wouldn't want to smoke really strong weed on a regular basis. I have a white widow on the go at the moment (journal in my sig) but this will not be something to smoke daily.

If you've never tried auto's, I'd highly recommend you give them a go. For me, they are the best strain. The grow in this journal will last me easily over a year depending on how much I give away. Not bad for 9 weeks work and certainly better than anything I've bought locally.

thats good to hear.. how smelly is that stuff onced dried and cured? I ask this because right now the smell is very limited to grow op. I have ona bucket i use to help for smell. I am curious as to how strong it smells once harvested.

I had regular Ak47 when i was in NY, stuff was my fav, and still is... its one of the best strains I have and I love the sativa high of it... Its up there with the og kush in my book.

Would love to try some!
When the auto ak was flowering, my whole flat stunk! A nice skunky smell but a suspicious one nontheless.

I've had it curing now for a few months (buds now live in their curing jars)
The smell is still a nice, sweet potent skunky one and even better when I grind a bud up.
