Afghan Kush Ryder (AKR) 300w CFL's (Second Grow)

they take a bit longer to take off in bigger pots. the taproot has to hit the bottom of the pot before it can spread out, give it a week or 2 before you write it off

Probably then. Are you just growing the 1 AKR?

Well yeah but from the same bag I ordered my friend is growing on sunlight, on his bay window and it's same size even smaller a bit, they were germinated together so it's same age, and he have it in small pot. Like a less than a gallon, just for first 2-3weeks...

Well then if he has a smaller pot and you have a larger one it's not the pot size. Otherwise his plant would be larger. The current NLxBig Bud auto I'm growing actually is a photo and the other NLxBB sprouted, but never broke the shell. Could just be a bad batch of seeds. Or maybe that's standard size for AKR, that just seems odd though.

I'm not posting any pictures because changes are really small if any, I was reading few articles and apparently that is how weed behave in big pots, so I guess that is one of the reasons ppl usually plant them into small pots and than to bigger and bigger.... Apparently right now plant is creating a root system... later on it should catch on...

Well I guess that means I'm starting in the jiffy peat pellets I bought lol.

Bump. I'm growing 6 AKR's....i'm noticing the same thing as far as slow growth. One is about 4 inches tall and started flowering.

Hi.

My AKR is an auto/femmed.

This was her at ten days :



This was her at 22 days :



This at 31 days :



This was her yesterday at 48 days :



Sorry if bud shots are out of focus i'm having trouble with my camera and close-up shots.

I bought her because the growbox i made is only 2x2x3 feet high and i read that they didn't grow very high, i can't believe the height she is reaching, i have had to LST her, without that she would be 3 ft high !

She is in the box with a Short Stuff Auto Assassin, the poor Assassin is struggling to get any light !


All the best,

nibs.

e2a : dont know what this attached pic is i cant get it off !

Yeah I can imagine it's confusing but I seen this video and they are using 19/4 so I would love to get to the result of the grow on the video as close as possible.

Mate, instead of talking he is using an old program I used to use a while back on windows XP that converts text to speech, they have another program that records it as well, I know this voice and used to use it all the time, it was easily a typo and on top of that there is no point changing to 19/5 because AKR does best under 20/4

Also, AKR's are quite hungry for the grow nutes.


All the best,

nibblebit.

yeaa his sprout at 10 days has sumthin wrong with it. i got mine under 4 13watt cfls n it was tht size on day 2 after sprouting i think its on day 5 now n on its 3rd node

subbing as your girl is about as old as my 2nd, I am growing 2 AKR (at different ages unfortunately). Mine younger one looks similar and is no way near as far a long as my first one at day 10. I think she will catch up but definitely behind. My grow journal is in my sig, if you want compare progress I am trying to do 2 updates a week.
