AutoBots, TRANSFORM pt.III !!! Auto AK47 & SourJemz!!

Whaaaaaaa Suuuuuuuup Peoples!!!! Been away from this site for a while...right after they updated it..Anywayz, I will "share" my new grow with RIU...even though I still like the older version betta!!!

Up for this grow is My own Auto Ak [F1's] beans I got from my first grow....
And for a special treat I will be introducing; "SourJems"!...<it is my own hybrid cross of Mdanzig Sour60 & Mossy's Purple Jems....a.k.a. Purple Ryder...
I got 412 seeds from this breeding........

Started 40 beans, {my goal is 16 girlz}...Soaked 20 of each in PH'd water with superthrive until they sunk, then jiffy pellets, onced sprout, into 16oz cups under a 4 bulb 4' HO T5....(20'000 lumens)....first set of sprouts was on the 21st of Aug. with the rest showing their heads on the 22,23,24,26,27,and 9/1.....Didint't give them ANY NUTES until they started to show sex!!< jus Superthrive & AN no-shock..

As of today, I have 11 confirmed females, (8 ak's<1 not transplanted yet..ran out of soil... and 3 sourjems) freshly transplanted to 3 gal bags within the last 48hrs...which makes my grow officially 3wks old today, 9/11..
I currently have 8 more unknown sourjems & 1 ak unkown....hoping for 5 more sourjem girls!!!
All males, [except 3 sourjems] have been killed..!<strickly a sensimilla run!!
UNLESS I find some color out of these 3 males as well as the girls....then I would breed for the F2's.......

Soil used for seedlings and transplant is ProMix HP with 30% added "horticultural grade" perlite.

As some of you will remember in my first grow on RIU, this to is a VERTICLE set-up! Using 600HPS with 4 two foot HO t5's in each corner....

Nutes & Supp will be by Advance Nutrients & Fox Farm with Cal-Mag, Black Strap Molasses of course...

ANYWAYZ>>>>>>>PICS!

I will be doing weekly updates to show you growth progress in a 7 day period.....
BTW, the reason you see the plants top part of soil like that is to promote more oxygen to the roots as well as make them have more room to dive deep!! It's called; "ERT....Extreme Raised Transplanting"....Any and all comments welcomed.....

Got 2 more females,(1 from each strain) on 9/13 and transplanted yesterday, 9/14....next feeding on fri-sat...will be giving them GrowBig, Big Bloom, Open Sesame, Root stimu, Molasses, AN Conno a&b, and B-52 with 48-72hr bubbled ph'd water<MORE Oxygen to the roots!

2 more females were dicovered this morn before lights went out......They are the SourJems!! < will transplant later when they wake up @ 7pm...pic updates tomm...
No comments/posts in 5 days since thread was started??? WOW!!

Looking awesome man, is that a single 400HPS you are using? Do you plan to use a screen or just keep turning the pots? Subscribed and +rep for the clean setup and fantastic pic spread! Ill be lurking

EDIT: Oops! Guess I missed the line where you said it was a 600HPS. That is freakin sweet, ever have temp issues? Whats your exhaust and your flowering room footprint? Sorry for all the questions but if you're like me you wont mind answering them Knowledge is power!

Thanks KolorBlind! I just keep turning the pots, like every 24hrs.....and yeah, I finding I do a some temp issues...as you can see in one of my pics, the thermometer reads 83....that with lights on after 5-6 running..sometimes it goes up and down....that's whay I have my cycle on during the night...I do have a cool-tube and another windtunnel6, (409cfm) in-line fan just for the light that I shouldv'e installed BEFORE I started, but got lazy and said one more run with the bare bulb then FOR SURE i'm gonna install it!!!
My exhaust fan is a Windtunnel 6 fan with a Active Air50 Carbon Filter<this thing is HUGE!! but does the job perfectly, BUT I think I may need a higher CFM fan for more NEG. pressure...Which in turn would suck in More cool air...(those flaps of my tent are open but down...should they be taped open for more cool air to come in?<passive air in-take.... I DO have a 6" booster fan sucking in cool fresh air via my portable A/C, 11,000btu...which keeps the room itself around 75 degrees<<maybe replace the booster fan with a stonger in-line fan to bring in MORE of that Cool Air..? Anyways, as far as my flowering footprint..it's 56" x 56" of floor space using a 600HPS....

Forgot to update yesteday, but nevertheless, here it iz....
jus a quick pic update.....this sorry-azz camera died in the middle of taking pics!! I swear I have to buy a BETTER one after this grow! I will take more tomm...
Anywayz, pics....
#1. This is a group shot of 8 girlz... <tried taken it with a diff. exposure and blacklight flash...anyway, the bigger ones are the 4wk old girls...
from top-left; Ak#2, AK#1, SourJem#1, SourJem#3, and another Ak....all are 28days, except that Ak<25days old.....3 on the bottom are SourJem#4, the Ak runt & SourJem#5...
Havent fed em' since 9/14...and yes, I see the light green leaves tryin to creep up to next set<will feed tomm. with GrowBig, AN Conno A&B, Molasses, B-52, Root Stimu, Open Sesame, Cal-Mag & BigBloom.....It's obvious they want FOOD!

#2. Same order as pic 1, just a better exposure and angle...they are around 8"....

#3. This is a shot of my bushiest, (so-far!) SourJem! <maybe the breeding candidate for F2's....!!
#4. Close up of another SJ.....

#5. Angle/Top shot of SourJem #3
#6. From left to right...2nd Biggest SJ<23 days old! & by far my most developed and biggest plant out of all, Ak#3<4wks old...and she is almost 11"..!
So total, I have 14 girls outta 40 seeds started....and 2 Ak's appear to be RUNTS! The last 4 unknown SJems turned out to be males...<not 100% sure on 2 though..we'll see....Oh, what's da deal with those "twisting leaves"?????
Sorry for the crappy pics, AGAIN! dont let the reflections fool ya!

lookin great bro keep it up! how long do these take from seed?

Ladies look green and happy!

yeah nice
love your mix
goodluck

The 400/430 watt ballasts are the first lights to be able to penetrate like 3-4 feet!

Hey Sumpn what's up, lookin good brother! Was just wondering if you ever saw any color with those Purple Jems, and what you thought of them ??? I have a couple packs of them and haven't got around to popping them yet... Thanks Tuco.

Thanks bro! 60-70 days!!

Thanks Bro! Well, No I never saw any color from the pack I bought...and actually, didn't get any females neither..<my fault though...left seeds in a hot enviroment for days!! BUT the breeder DID gifted me some exclusives!!!!
Anywayz, here is the answer to your question as far as color......Directly from the breeders mouth; ".Original JEM was Red/light purple 30%/White 30%/Purple 30%".......says you will see a diff array of pheno's when you grow these...but will def. get what you are looking for @ F3...!!
Hope that helps.....Oh, here is a pic of a jem from him, in the early stages......
