Hey brutha, I just went through your exact situation! I just grew my first two AK48's with FFOF in 5gal smartpots & I freaked out at every little thing! :o
Listen to the great advice that you will receive from everyone on here & you will do just fine!!
Keep me posted on how they turn out. GL

Right on! I'm probably just paranoid, they say this strain is suppose to be one of the more forgiving too so hopefully I don't screw it up! Btw, have you tried out the smoke yet?
 
I'm Not for sure but it could be quite a few different things #1 cal deficiency, #2 chemical burn, #3 overdose of nutrient or nutes burn #4 lights too close and too hot, too me they don't look sick, just a slight burn of some sort, what lights are you using? How strong are your nutes, and how fast did you up your nutes? How many times are you feeding it nutes? Every watering every other watering? Try maybe 1 good feeding once a Month you might want to try that , how much calmg are you giving her? Some plants are very touchy when it comes to nutes and lights. Just check those things, think about your schedule and maybe tweak your nutes and lights Just a little, especially with your sativa's,, Indicas are a little more forgiving when it comes to those sort of things.. Well I hope this helped you at least a little and good luck man, I'm going to follow you just in case you need more help on a subject I can seriously effectively help you with...
Thanks man, I'm thinking about buying some calmag from the local hydro store just to be safe on the calcium end of things. If the ph'd tap water doesn't help the calcium situation out, that's probably the route I will go. I've only fed one time at 1/3 strength but I'm pretty positive I just gave the nutes too soon for the soil it's in. In the coming days I should have updated pics of This New growth and how it's shaping up. Thanks for the advice!

The cotyledon also has nutes stored for plant development in the early stages.the yellowing is showing the plant using up those nutes (normal)The lower leaves may have been touching soil or got nutes on them during watering and is nothing to worry about.on the other hand the leaf tips yellowing that way on newer growth is a sure sign of to much nutes. Dont stress to much a lot of new growers myself included coddle their plants to much that can cause problems(its a weed it will grow).sounds like you are in good hands and good luck with the rest of your grow.

The plants are still about a week from being ready to harvest & cure but I did dry & cure a small bud off of one of them last week & we smoked sum of it last night while we were watching the UFC fight....
I was very impressed!
Don't forget to hmb & let me know what you think of it after yours is ready....

Alright guys, here are my update pictures along with how things are going. Its been a little over a week since my last posts.
I made some small upgrades to the room adding some Mylar and 3 more lights. Its all the light I will be adding for now because I plan to start flowering in the next week.

I still haven't fed nutrients, and its been 3 ph'ed tap watererings since. I had trouble lowering the ph in my tap to the 6.5ish range. It seemed to be a little more basic. I tried watering 75% tap 25% RO but Idk if that really made a difference. Anyways, I have a few questions..

The pictures range from the overall size and look of the plant, the splotches on leaves around the canopy and red stems which I believe are a calcium deficiency? If so, should I go grab some cal-mag?

Most of the splotching are on the branches that were created from LST. Not sure if that matters or not. They range from upper leaves in the canopy to some of the lower. It is mostly located in the upper half of the plant though.

The red stems are also located mostly on newer growth. They seem to be really flimsy and weak.

Will be 6 weeks This coming Monday before Christmas.

Let me know what you guys think!
