Yeah, Convict's right. This shit is a weed, and it grows like one. They are hardy motherfuckers. Especially AK47... holy balls can that plant can survive.

Yeah we will see how these babies grow lol got em close to the lights but its like my first lady stopped growing. No difference in the last week

Nice grow goin on. Ussually they slow down it may be time for a larger pot. GL w/ it friend

what do they look like? pics. might be close to t plant day?

Just found out ill be moving in about a month so this grow turned extremely experimental lol won't be able to harvest and won't be transporting 1100 mules either. So let's see what happens lol

Also my next grow will be done much better not just thrown together. I think some AK48 and strawberry ice.

So here are a few pictures of my ladies
This one is just over a week.



This is is same age but don't look as healthy.



This one is over 2 weeks from the time it broke through the soil

That last one seems to of stopped growing

dont disregard LSTing though, you can double or 1.5x your harvest with some effective training.

I totally agree with this, I just started LST this weekend, you can already see the plants responding to getting all that extra light along the stems. They're both about 4 inches tall, 5 weeks old has 8 or 9 nodes and 3 weeks old has 6. I tied off about an inch above soil, right below the lowest leaves, to stabilize the stem, and then pulled it over just below the top and have it held down with a hook made out of a paper clip and stuck into the soil.

I also agree that these ladies can take a lot of punishment, I had a seedling get dug up and almost die, now she's my best plant. Still working on correcting a big K deficiency with my other one though. There's always going to be something working against you until you get your grow perfected. Happy Growing.

At least it was a good learning experience, which we all need sometimes. Best of luck with your next grow, keep us all posted. I plan on trying either AK48 or White Rhino for my next round.

Yeah well I got about a month before I moved so I switched em to 12/12 just to see what happens lol

ha, thatl be kinda cool to see.

I can't wait to move. I'll either be going to Florida or Texas.

stay away from texas. harshest pot laws in country, lol

Texas is a scary place, haha. Let us know how the attempt at flowering goes, I've seen some plants that have been force flowered at a young age that stay very small and grow one decent sized bud. How old are the plants now?

One is 3 weeks, the other 2 are 2 weeks lol. The one that's 3 weeks is working on 4th node but is smaller then the other 2. The ones that are 2 weeks are working on 3rd.

They're probably too young to get any buds from them over the next month IMO, but I could be wrong. Good luck, I'm interested to see what they do.

I'm not counting on it but never know.

Ironically, someone just gave me a 3 week old bagseed seedling that is going to be forced into flower along with my other 2 plants starting this weekend. It'll be fun to see what happens, should bud up okay if it goes full term flowering time with the others, just not yield a lot or have full potency.

Yeah mines growing fast now. They are beautiful and healthy. Hopefully they will be ready before I move but I doubt it. Never know.
