Default My first indoor, Afghan & AK48
permalink
Hey this is my first indoor crop after a few years of growing outside.

Soil is sandy loam topsoil, mixed with horse manure, perlite, chicken manure, and bio-tone with mycorrihzae and other bacteria. Germed three of each the afghans cracked in less than 12 hours, 1 AK took about 24h the other 2 took about 36h to crack. They were put under softwhite cfls for the first 10 or so days of their lives which caused some stretch and kinda slow growth. For the last 5 days they have been under the 400w MH and seem to be liking it a lot more.

This pic is of all 6 Afghans in teh front AKs in the back.


One of the afghans.


One of the AK48s.

If I have the money I'm planning on ordering a 400w HPS, but if I don't have enough for that I was planning on getting a 3000k MH bulb for the 400w light im using. At some point though im going to get a 1000w HPS with one of the dual arc bulbs and use it all the way through, should have it for my next grow I hope.

OK I'm here for my weekly update, for about 4 days this week temps were around 60* and they didn't seem to grow much at all, I blocked off the section of the building with 6mil plastic 2 days ago and now the temps are up in the mid 70s and growth has resumed.

The afghan in the second photo has a little bit of nute burn, but it doesn't seem too bad so I'm just letting it grow.

OK update at 4 weeks they are all about 8 inches except Afghan#2 which is only about 5 inches, Afghan#1 is still getting burned pretty good but growing strong so I'm letting it grow through it. Also the group got flipped around this week so Afghans in the back AK48 in the front.

OK so heres the 5 week update, AK48s were gettin a bit tall and branchy so I went ahead and bent them over to get more branching. Group shot before, couple pics of the AK48's, and a shot after the LST.

I cut the light back to 19/5 for tomarrow, I plan on cutting it back 1 hour everyday until I go into 12/12 next tuesday.

Looking very nice. What type of light will you be using for flowering? I prefer HPS for flowering, the plants really seem to respond to that. So thats 5 weeks of vegging huh? I can tell your plants are going to get really big, they really take off during flowering. Might even have to tie down some buds. Hehe

Is this your first grow?

Puff...Puff...Passes it to you
