Hey all,

As you can probly tell this is my first post, so gday all. Ive been hanging out on this site for well over 6 months, reading ect. so am not a newbie.:thumbsup: And dam theres some good info out there. Experince is evrything.

I got 2 AK47 clones last week and 1 has taken realy well the other is staying willted and a yellow tinge 2 it, so im cutting nutes back to pretty much nothing. Its growing just not looking 2 good. Any suggestions???

The bigger plant i have no idea wat it is, just from a bag of weed my brother got me, was killer smoke so if "IT" buds, should be some good smoke.

Im growing in a cuboard, 3ft x 2ft x 6ft wit a 400w MH change to sodium when time to bud. Growing the 2 AK in expanded clay watering 5 times a day for 15mins, and my generic plant is in soil.

This is only my second grow, have pics of my first i have to find and i will post 2moro.

Who else has grown AK47?

Well gotta go i here my bong calling me, Peace out.

Good to see evryone so talkitive!!!

Please i want your feedback, and am open to ideas. Im no expert i just have an idea.
What does evryone think about Dutchmaster nutes? And the yellowing of some of the leaves? Lots of brains are better than 1!!!!

Peace out.

have you started feeding them yet as it looks like a N deficiency if you havent started feeding i would start them of with something light around ppm 300 as ak likes its nutes ,Dutchmasters nutes are ok its down to preference really and with you being a aussie dutch masters are made there i thinklol im a scot no one makes them here lol do you have any superthive? sorry for all the questions but im not on for long and would like to catch you before i go off line but if i dont just leave the answers and im sure someone will help out if not i will be back on line later.best of luck and hope it all goes well as ak is one kick ass smoke.daveyboy the postman.

Hey postman,

Yeah started feeding them 2 days ago at around 400ppm, and keeping ph to aroun 6. No superthrive, is that for soil plant? Did use a product from work called Nitrophoska Perfekt, will get % of whats in it and we can compare to superthirve.

Am using distilled water for pebbles, or rainwater when i can.

Would you mind posting some pics of your AK grow on this thread, would be choice to see some in full swing.

Thanks for comments and ideas. Will get back.

Peace out

More questions sorry lol. is the ak clones in rockwool in the clay pabbles or are they just straight into the pebbles?Was the leaves yellowing before you started feeding.superthrive is a vitamin supplament /stress releaver.heres a pic of my ak they are only 2 weeks into flower these i grew to select a mother and just threw the rest in 12/12.ohh i would lower the ph a little maybe to 5.5 in the clay pebbles and are you self watering them or do you have hydroponics set up with the clay pebbles.

seems like the yellow leaves was N defficiency and then you stopped feeding making it worse maybe?

I hope the experts here don't become offended if I recommend that you purchase an indoor grow guide. A more specific index should prove a very useful tool for you. By the way, I am going to grow some AK-47 myself. Why did you pick it? Just curious...

Watering with a timer and pump in rockwool. Na leaves werent yellow just a bit wilted, person i got the clones from got them on a wednesday and told me thursday night so were sitting on her bench for a day n a half.

I didnt realy pick it, its wat was available at the time. At first i said no cause she wanted $50 each, but then finding out the strain i took it. Its ment to be killer smoke, thats why i was happy to pay.

Plants looking heaps better, there both perky. Will start slowly increasing nutes soon.

Also ive been tipping the Generic plant in soil and tying it down. 2nd time for tipping was about 4 days ago, and i tipped 13 stems.

Postman, wat ppm have you got your AKs at? Looking nice by the way!!!

Peace out
