Beautiful! Just popped a few ak47 fem seeds a couple months ago. Got one of them off to the side in my current grow. Can't wait to try a full run.

Cool. Couple tips for ya... they like the nutes and dont burn easy... i went 110% strength before i saw a tiny bit of tip burn. And they stretch like crazy after flip, especially if they are a sativa dom pheno. Mine doubled in size so lucky i flipped when i did or wouldve ran out of room. Lastly, both the sativa dom pheno and the indica dom pheno tend to grow thinner limbs, which is why they flop when the buds start to get heavy. Notice how i had to make tomato cages for them out of bamboo and string...lol this would be a great strain for scrog....

Great info. After looking at your pics, I'm like a kid 2 months before Christmas. Out of the four seeds I popped, 2 look sativa, and two look indica. They were fem seeds so all are female.

I'll take a few when lights come on. There is only two in the flower room right now. They were the first clones ready to be sexed. I grow scrog so I have to know sex for sure even though they are feminized. I put those two in 6 liter pots as soon as the showed roots in my cloner, and straight into the flower room. I didn't think they would do much besides show me sex, but holy shit if they didn't take off even though they have been fed at an EC of 1.5 from day one! What medium and nutes are you using?

I use promix mychrohaezi (spelling...lol) and the AN hobby line.

What kind of cloner and how long did it take them to pop roots?

I used a homemade bubble cloner and it took 18 agonizing days for the first clone to pop roots. I wanted 8 plants so i waited 12 more days before i got that 8th plant... not sure what happened there... my run before was white russian and i did 8 clones in 8 to 12 days total...

I use a homade airoponic cloner. These took 4 days to show root formation. It uses 2.5 gallons of ro water to which I add, a couple drops of superthrive, and 20 ml canna rhyzotonic, I normally transplant them in solo cups, but was out so I used the 6 liter pots. I recently converted to canna coco with their coco nute line, A+B, rhyzo, cannazyme, and PK 13/14. After many years of growing in all types of medium and systems, I am blown away by the aggressive growth I'm getting with this setup. Check out my 2k querkle scrog thread for pics.

Here they are. The two in the bigger potts went into flower at the same time, and same size. The two in the solo cups were put in a week later. The two in the big pots were the same size as the small one in the solo cup when they went in. It's been less then two weeks in flower. Not to bad considering I didn't think they would make it two weeks. LolIMG_20160321_211654791.jpg

So now 47 days from flip. And again these girls are fox-tailing on me. This has happened every time I've run the AK. Some have said such is due to high temps, but I dunno... I've run this AK at a number of different temps and this time I've kept the canopy no higher than 77f and that has been very rare. Usually only 75f.

Anyway, this run has been a bit of a happy disaster. The buds are so heavy they're flopping over all over the place. Every watering I've had to tie up some more buds...lol

Here is what the ones I sexed turned out like. Had to cut them 3-1/2 weeks early, but they still turned out great for how neglected they were. Pics are of the big main cola and the two that made it in the far back corner of my main grow. 54 grams dried.IMG_20160518_045012573.jpg IMG_20160425_061422147.jpg
