Sup RIU! Im starting another grow using ak47 by serious seeds. Im using botanicare's ready grow coco mix, pure blend pro grow/bloom, calmag, liquid karma, sweets, hydroplex, and silica blast. Plants are under a 600w hps. Hoping to get another mh bulb soon but for now they are under the hps.

Clones topped and transplanted @ 2 1/2 weeks in solos. Transplanted in 2.5 gal hempys.

Plants 1 week after transplant. Topped a second time. Nice growth even under the hps.

Will update every week with new pics. Hoping to get another mh bulb this week. Vegging for a couple more weeks. Ill be topping at least one or two more times.

Here at 2 weeks of veg in 2.5 gal hempys. Did some lolipopin and some defoliation.

I also just uped the nutes to 100%. Everything is good so far. Also forgot to mention my ballast blew so I have my floros in right now. No update on the replacement ballast yet.

After 3 weeks of vegging from clone I've flipped the light schedule to 12/12. Also setup my other Hps light for now. Hopefully I'll get that replacement soon. The canopy is pretty much filled in beautifully and everything is looking good. Did a transitional feeding today with half grow half bloom nutes. Also added in some calmag, liquid Karma, and sweets. Will be adding the hydroplex at next feeding.

Week 1 of 12/12 complete. Starting week 2. Did a quick defoliating of the bottom growth. Plants looking great so far. I also rearranged them to compensate for any light dispersion issues. Can't wait for the 600 to go back in...

Week 2 of flower is done. I Staked down some branches but ended up running out...lol. which is a good thing. Also hooked up the drip so won't need to move plants from now on. Theres also Fan leaves near the bud sites are already frosty which is a great sign of things to come... all in all everything is doing great.

I'm at 18 inches. Could go closer but since my 600 crapped out on me I'm using my 400. I need a bigger foot print to get light to all plants so I'm further away than I would like... should be hooking up a 600 real soon tho...

Yeah okay that makes sence. I just wondered with the same lighting why they seemed abit stretchy. AK47 sounds like a great smoke. Darn it im gonna need a bigger flowering room :)

Nice growth so far. Bud sites have frosty goodness all over the place which is a good sign of things to come.

End of week 6 flowering is near... I was really busy last week and wasn't able to upload any pics. I was able to get a new 600 w Hps back in last week so everything is looking pretty good.

Cool 808 Im 2 weeks behind you with the AK. Your telling my future bro. This strain seams to take off slow. Week one and two was pretty fast but now shes creeping along just making hairs and not a hole hell of a lot of them. I have a belladonna next to her and she has huge hair clusters at day 25. I hope the Ak explodes soon. Can you take a couple close ups of some bud formation and leaf structure as I have always thought Serious Seeds has the tightest genes and would like to compare. I can throw up some pic's if you would like. I run rcdwc in a 5x5 tent with two 1000 watt lights cranked down to 500 each.

End of week 7 flower (late post)... buds filling in nice. Started my flush already and getting ready to chop soon... checking trichs this weekend to see where we at. Girls smell ridiculously strong. Even with a carbon filter I still can catch a whiff or two walking by. Can't wait!!!

Looks really nice man! I had this deficiency that looked like mg for my first 30 days of flower it wasn't bad but noticeable I tried everything to get rid of it. I got some calmag I upped my ppm I dropped my ppm. Yesterday I saw what I thought was a gnat flying around my bucket so I did some research and came across this pictureuser20270_pic369203_1272926248.jpg went back in my tent and sure enough I have micro root aphids. There so small I would have never found them as a matter of fact if my lids were not black I would have never knew they were there. I don't even know how long I've had them! I guess there a plague spreading everywhere so watch out. By the way all my plants came from seed and my tent and hole setup is new so I don't even know how I got them. If your in dirt or soil less I don't even think someone would ever even know they have them. Oddly enough root aphid make the leaves look just like leaf aphids which also look like mg deficiency's.
I don't know why I put this in here. I guess I'm spreading the word cause its a very tricky plant problem.
Anyway Id like to know how well ya did and you plants look great if ya get a chance at harvest take a couple of pic under reg light bro.
