She's coming on strong under the 3x55w. I'm hoping she's big enough to move under the 400w HPS in about a week.

thats the one, if I'm not to baked to be able to change forum settings the link to my grow should be in my sig if you wanna tag along. Mines going under fluro's for the duration, should be interesting to see the difference...not that I think the fluro's will hold a candela to the HPS, if you know what I mean;-)

you should have that in a 5 gallon bucket... unless that pot is 5 gallons. you never want to transplant an auto.

Decided to take the plunge and dropped her under the 400 HPS this morning.

I figure I'm only going to get one shot at this so I've moved her under the 400 HPS. Should I top or LST her or just let her go natural?

I'm also doing an aak freebie right now. I'm a bit ahead of you, and I wouldn't top it. It will bush nicely on it's own.

Sorry for lack of updates, work has been a little insane. Here's a shot I took tonight after almost two weeks under the 400w HPS.

Looking good man. TechnoMange, I have a question for you. I am growing 4 G13 AK autos and want to know when did you put your AK under the 400W hps? My plants seem a little small. 1 is about 13 day in veg and the other 3 are about 10 days in veg. Sorry for the noob question but but this is my 2nd grow and first AF try. Do I wait for the plants to show sex before I put the under?

It was 18 days old.
I sprouted the seed in a paper towel and then stuck it in some soil under a 14w bulb. It poked to the surface in about 4 days and then I stuck it under 2x14w bulbs for another 10 days. Then I had it under 3x55w bulbs for a final four days before sticking under 400w hps.

This is what it looked like:

I started getting yellow showing on the very tips which is usually a sign of over fertilization. Because of this I've switched to the flower fert schedule and for the first couple of waterings I'm using half strength.
