First time doing AutoFlower: G13 Labs Auto AK Feminized

TechnoMage · Nov 10, 2011

Thanks all.

She's coming on strong under the 3x55w. I'm hoping she's big enough to move under the 400w HPS in about a week.

Nice grow man, subbed.

Popped an auto AK in myself a few days after you, sprouted on the 4th.

Looking pretty similar to your most recent post now, I'll try and get a pic up later

Looks good and healthy so far. I put 2 AK Autos in the cup today. Subbed. This is my first auto grow and I'll be checking yours out closely.

Let me guess, the Attitude free promo seed? bongsmilie

She'll definitely be big enough in that week man. Im 400 start to finish with autos and no negatives that i can think of.

thats the one, if I'm not to baked to be able to change forum settings the link to my grow should be in my sig if you wanna tag along. Mines going under fluro's for the duration, should be interesting to see the difference...not that I think the fluro's will hold a candela to the HPS, if you know what I mean ;-)

you should have that in a 5 gallon bucket... unless that pot is 5 gallons. you never want to transplant an auto.

Decided to take the plunge and dropped her under the 400 HPS this morning.

I figure I'm only going to get one shot at this so I've moved her under the 400 HPS. Should I top or LST her or just let her go natural?

marsdaley · Nov 13, 2011

dude i fuckin love them pots lol but id top her

Unclejerk · Nov 14, 2011

I'm also doing an aak freebie right now. I'm a bit ahead of you, and I wouldn't top it. It will bush nicely on it's own.

TechnoMage · Nov 14, 2011

I'll probably LST it once it get's a little taller.

nimmo24lung · Nov 16, 2011

Don't top her mate she's an auto and will be stunted for a week maybe 2 and it will affect your yield, much better to do lst get a nice even canopy with no stress I'll be watchin this one got a freebie auto ak too growing the PE and purp haze now

Sorry for lack of updates, work has been a little insane. Here's a shot I took tonight after almost two weeks under the 400w HPS.

Unclejerk · Nov 26, 2011

Hmm. Mine's looking a little different. And I might be a week ahead of you.

Unclejerk · Nov 26, 2011

Guess there's a few different phenos...

Wouldn't surprise me on a free seed. I also seem to grow compact bush plants for some reason, not sure why.

lbbongtoke · Nov 29, 2011

Looking good man. TechnoMange, I have a question for you. I am growing 4 G13 AK autos and want to know when did you put your AK under the 400W hps? My plants seem a little small. 1 is about 13 day in veg and the other 3 are about 10 days in veg. Sorry for the noob question but but this is my 2nd grow and first AF try. Do I wait for the plants to show sex before I put the under?

It was 18 days old.
I sprouted the seed in a paper towel and then stuck it in some soil under a 14w bulb. It poked to the surface in about 4 days and then I stuck it under 2x14w bulbs for another 10 days. Then I had it under 3x55w bulbs for a final four days before sticking under 400w hps.

This is what it looked like:

I started getting yellow showing on the very tips which is usually a sign of over fertilization. Because of this I've switched to the flower fert schedule and for the first couple of waterings I'm using half strength.

So, how's it looking?
