First grow. AK47 autoflower entering flower period. Just over a meter tall. I guess it's not expressing its short genetics. Healthy leaves, stalks, pistils and filling out. What we expected to be a shrubby lil thing is a tropical tree! Blowing lots of air on it, etc. Started with CFLs and moved to HPS. Using FF Happy Frog and Ocean Forest soil. Fingers crossed. We don't think it's stretching. All the features are robust. Anyone else have surprises? Any wisdom?

LOL, i need to put the pics up here from my phone. but my ak47 auto flower is over 6ft. and believe it or not she , since i topped the plant for a clone she split to multiple colas. and as you can see from the pics it looks like a bumper yeild coming my way i am only 3 weeks in bloom.

yes i did super thrive during veg stage.. but as you can see i still have tree trunks. i know a secret!

to note about auto flowers.. take this to heart.

1. only transplant twice in its entire life in the grow room sprout cup all the way to 7 gallon. trust me look it up.

2. auto flowers are geneticly high phospherus plants compared to its non altered strains. more than usual.

3. use guano for these grows its organic. and sunleaves version hits the stages perfectly. no burns no lacks.

4. even though synthetics i add tiger bloom with some ph up from weeks 5 to 8 increasing after 6 week. continue the jamaican and indonesian guano treatments. notice they are high on ph when you read them. and looky here what happens. tiger bloom brings it back down to 5.8 no ph added during heavy tiger bloom stage. like it was meant to be. at weeks 7

1/2 tbl cal mag
reccomended dosage indonesian guano
2 tbl tiger bloom
1/2 tbl bio root
1 gallon r/o water or spring water

920 ppm and ph 6.2 n 1.2 p 14 k 2 dead on the money

flower room temp 76 degrees.

I know this seems different but so is the strain. I tried this philosophy with all autoflowers and perfect results.

i will show you my autoflower ak47 monsters in a few when i get them downloaded to pc.

1. in other words. just use bat guano nutrients , like sunleaves full kit. and let them grow. be careful with superthive it can leave your plants to stretched and not strong enough. infact dont even use until you master the whole flower stage anyways.

dont change your pots to much. autoflowers roots grow fast dont mess with em.

use bio root to maintain white healthy roots during every cycle with auto flowers.

they want P and K, ALOT! use the guano its easier and bud taste better.

lol, It was pulled out of the grow room for cleaning. It doesnt stay there. I have another grow set up with Kessil H380's led. I built it out of a ice fishing shanty. lol. it actually works well. the insulation on the inside makes it a very stable out of the house grow. and my ventilation is really nice i run it through the floor blowing up through the plants . its my first LED grow so my expectations are low. thats the four clones in my avatar under 1 kessil. they are expensive but, someone i know popped a 1lb grow out of 3 of these lights.
