not true, all depends on the pheno he has. I have determined there are 3-4 Lowlife auto ak47 phenotypes. If grown to potential they will be anywhere from 18"-40" tall when done. I have 8 fem auto ak47's in a hydro system under a 1k hps. They are 48 +/- days old from seeds. my favorite is the Christmas tree version

Ok i went to the hydroponics store an hour away today to pick up my new grow light and the other stuff for my first grow. I got the light, a bag of fox farm ocean forest, a brick of coco to mix with the soil, i wanted perlite to mix also but the only bag they had was the size of a large bale of hay and was pertty expensive... so i got a small bag of hydroton clay pebbles. I would have got the perlite but i only had so much $ on me. I wanted it for drainage and to help airate the soil a little more. I hope it will work out ok. i mixed it all together about 60% FFOF, 30% coco, 10% hydroton. i also wanted to pick up some fox farm nutes but he didn't stock them. he said he could order them but he showed me a few things that had all the same ingredients as the FF brand stuff. I also picked up a PH meter. all in all it ran me almost $400.

Have you got any seeds yet? Because I can wholeheartedly recommend the auto ak-47 by lowlife

i just got my purple ryder seeds in the mail today. I still need to build that cabinet and get my carbon filter and inline fan, but other than that i am ready to grow.i mixed up my soil, filled the bottom of the pots with hydroton for better drainage. i put a little hydroton on the top just for the looks pretty much since i had a lot extra. i checked the Ph with my meter and i am reading between 6.3 & 6.7 on all 4 pots! I would lilke to keep a journal on here to share with everyone. it is good for new guys like me to see what other new guys did on their first grow, good or bad. learn from others mistakes and successes. for those of you who haven't seen the purple ryder, here is the pic from a seed bank.

Bigby why is it Sativa?
Man, this thread is badass. I am still trying to backread alot of the pages, so much info.
I am about to start my first serious grow in a couple of weeks and I was looking for info, so glad I stumbled upon this thread.
I am going to get some Short Stuff Onyx seeds and grow in a bubbleponics system.

Okay, I am right here going to dispell all of the bullshit ive been hearing about transplanting autos throughout this thread.
If you transplant your autos properly, you will never ever stunt the growth or shock them. I have transplanted mine TWICE and both times they showed exponential growth the next day. party cups to 3L pots then to 2 Gal.
Sure if you do it after they are in flower already it will probably do little to nothing, but. during veg while they still have vigorous growth and if your plants are rootbound and you decide to transplant you should take your time and be careful not to damage any roots they will most definitely be thanking you for the new root room the next day.
all the people out there that have been warning others to not to transplant because you're better off to let them remain rootbound is absolute hogwash and screw all of you who recommended this to everybody.
I have had absolutely no bad repercussions from transplanting 10 autos in PROMIX, TWICE. they didnt even show any kind of shock whatsoever. the next day they had grown by at least another inch.

Good job on your discoveries, but tune that harshness down a little..lol...
Other strains could be waay different when it comes to transplanting, once youve grown out a couple strains
and transplanted them then you can protest your point. Until then those who say put them in big pots early are
taking risks out of the grow "stunted growth" and do alot less work than you do transplanting 3 times per plant.
Its alot less work to have them into the final pot asap and the plants roots can choose a route and not be disturbed at all.
The plant will grow regardless we just try to figure out the best way to grow the plant.
Be Easy Bro.

I transplanted my easyryder and the thing just keeps growing. I went from jiffy pellet to 1 quart to 3 gallon and the thing just keeps growing. I just let it get nice and dry so the whole pot of soil comes right out in 1 piece.
Thats all you need to do, it pops right out.

iv transplanted many times many strains, and if done right there are no problems, just like any other plant, they will like the new room. i also agree if you want to just plant them in a suitable pots then you dont half to worrie if your to rough with the plant. either way is fine as long as your ok with it. and i have done alot of strain many times. so take it what it werth. grow on and lets all get alone and get stoned

I'm not gonna bother to mince words...Fuck u man. No one out there can say that every strain is the same. Unless you have transplanted every strain of auto out there you are not qualified to state your opinions with such assuredness. I do landscaping for a living, I HAVE PLANTED PLANTS ALL DAY EVERY DAY in the spring and summer for the last six years, and some just don't do as well on transplant. You have no right to come here and tell us that we don't know what we are doing, and to tell us to screw ourselves? Real fuckin classy dude! Take ur 61 posts and shove them up ur ass, along with the meds you forgot to take today!
Also, we didn't say you should let them stay rootbound, we were saying to plant them right into the pot they will stay in for their entire life cycle. How about you try reading the thread instead of jumping in the middle and spouting off.
Ignorance is so frustrating!
