cheers for the kudos man! will be anxious to see how they turn out over the next few weeks, mine and yours alike! cool comparison opportunity, a Rollitup party would be amazing....imagine what we were doing was completely legal and that would probably be very common, like minded growing indiciduals :).....but anywho sadly most of you guys are in america! eesh, I wish that everyone could experience the graitfication of making something out of nothing, sigh*

Hey, Cheddar. Good looking plants, and nice journal so far. I just started a journal last night of my auto AK after being inspired by yours and a few others I have seen on here. My oldest is 13 days now, so I'm a little behind you. I'll keep watching your posts and hope everything goes smoothly for you. Any help you could give on my https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/181727-automatic-ak47-grow.html would be greatly appreciated. Good luck, man, and happy growing!

Hey there, looks great so far. Been reading your journal all morning as I have just started germinating my auto ak's last night. So far three have cracked and I have just one quick question- I ordered 20 seeds and I ended up with 21. Anyways, I don't really want to go buy 21 2 gallon pots since half will turn out male SO will it stunt growth, or otherwise negatively impact my plants if I put them in small cups until they show sex then transplant only the females into the 2 gallon pots? Thanks for the help and goodluck with your journal. I will be following it closely.

hey man! cheers for having a peruse of my journal, well these suckers tend to develop root mass rather quickly, due to them showing sex from about 17 days onwards (by that time the 20cm height and diameter pots had a nice healthy root system)....i could imagine that the seedlings that take longer to show sex may struggle and become rootbound....It sounds as though you have yourself a predicament!
Ill see if anyone i have been watching had used small cups at the start with these ak's but they do like their space.....lucky man, cant believe they gave you a free one....thinking about it i had 2 ak's in 1 pot and they were severly stunted, it sounds like a shit load of effort but for that amount of plants you cant complain :).... ooooo and make sure you set your humidity higher(round 60 till they sex then lower it)....my grow room was dry and created more males than females, im sure you could get over 50% success, anywho goodluck man! :bigjoint::peace:

oops... 3.785 litres so 2 US gallons = 7.57L

the breeders website reccemnds 5-7 liter pots.

my 2 gllon bags had roots go about 3 to 5 inches from the bottom, so in that case 5 liters would have done them ok, im still going with the 7l squares i can find the link from where i ordered if u like

I would have liked those square pots. Especially considering how tight my tent is at the moment, but I found 2 gallon pots so cheap I had to buy them.

Thanks for the help anyways

I would also like to give props to superthrive at this point in time

I recieved the seeds a few days ago and am in the process of building up my growroom, at the moment its a closet grow since they plants are quite small. for the meantime while i germinate the plants i have got 2 20 watt cfls above the 5 litre pots.... anyways i should be recieving the 250 watt envirolite i ordered tomorrow and will be using it for the veg period and a bit of flowering then i will be swapping to a 250 watt HPS bulb to finish it off...anyway i will put pictures up once i get the thing sorted

Hey Chedddar, love the closeups. What kind of a camera set up are you running with and did you photoshop the insert in the one photo? Love the close-up of the trics.
