day45. 2-3 weeks left to go :)

Buds are generating a lot of trichs, fairly pungent smell.
Poor little lowryder has been sick throughout (she's at the front with a 75cl bottle) The lowryder2 is sitting on a box- 6" higher than the Ak's to bring her closer to the light.

Grow's looking good Reiss! I guess the HPS is really gonna pay off now looking at the bushiness of those autos. I'm particularly interested in how this one will turn out with yields and how long before harvesting cos i'm planning a grow myself with some auto ak47s.. won't be as lucky as you tho as mine's a budget grow so I'll be goin with cfls all the way..

Day 51. The buds are fattening up nicely except for the lowryder2 (pictured at the front). She's been a little sick throughout the grow, the buds are thin but caked in trichs.

They are lookin awsome, cant wait until I see my girls with fat nugs. How do they smell ??
Thanks for the comments.

The room has a lovely musky skunk smell with a hint of sweetness (probably due to the mollasses i've been giving them)

But if i get up close and have a good wiff they smell more like piss! (no I haven't pee'd in them!)

The lighting doesn't really do the trich coverage any justice, but here's a couple of bud shots I just took -

If you're going to grow auto, these AK's kick arse, I love them! much bigger than the lowryder2.

My 3 are all going to be harvested at slightly different times looking at the trichs. the lowryder2 is almost ready, nearly all cloudy trichs.
1 AK is not far behind with mostly cloudy trichs and the last one still has 2-3 weeks to go with mostly clear trichs.

awesome your babies look amazing one question though does it smell really dank the original ak-47?
Ya know, I have no idea what dank means! lol, but if you're asking if they have a strong smell, then yes, very much so. My whole flat stinks which I'm getting worried about (neighbours and all that)

They are the fattest buds I've ever grown! and they feel tight. I'm pretty shit at guessing weight, but I'd say maybe a couple of OZ per plant (for the AK's) The skinny LR2 maybe 20g.
Now your auto's are going to be awsome with that light you have :)

I've had to tie string around one of the AK's as the buds are weighing the branches down!

Day 60:
A day of bad news :(
Some of my girlfriends family are coming to stay in 10 days which means I have to get the plants out of the flat (they are very anti drugs)
Going to have to chop them next week, ready or not, there is no where I can put them to finish them off, hopefully, they should be done. The trichs are 95% cloudy. But I would rather have a little more time just in case.

A couple of the smaller buds on one of the AK's have what looks like a seed at the top, really not sure as I've never seen one before, what do you think (circled in red) -



Here's a shot of the main cola on an AK, she looks very sticky -



And a shot of the other AK's main cola -

The plan is, next Sunday is lights off for 48hrs, Harvest on Tuesday and move them to a friends house for a few days of drying until the inlaws leave.

Have started to flush them with water and mollasses only. As it has been a purely organic grow, 10 days flushing should be sufficient.

Those look awesome, great grow Reiss. I'm starting a 400w hps grow soon, definitely leaning towards these auto ak47s now that I've seen these prolific grows. Which seedbank did you get yours from?
