Post some pics if you can. I am about to start growing some AK"s and would love to see some pics of em.

The bigger the better as far as containers. Bigger roots = bigger buds. Fit the biggest pots you can in your space. I don't see any reason why 12 five gallon buckets couldn't fit under two 1000 watt lights.

Keep me posted on your AK's. DO they smell as bad as I've read?

JOHN... MY BROTHER!!!!
12 plants under 2- 1000 watt hps's
WOW
you are going to see the miracle of LIFE

Make sure you have tons of air flow.. pull the heat away from your plants

PULL......

Sativa has good advice
Put them in 5 gallon containers.. you can get them cheap at HD.. 3 dollars... or so
if this is your first grow, you may want to consider adding perlite to your soil.. many new growers over water and perlite will give your roots a place to go and get O2 ....if you do over water....

please post pics you're gonna have monsters...
and go bigger than 3 gallon!!!

i agree with GardenKnowm. Thats a aweful small space for 2 1000 watts.
Too much heat with cause plants to slow in growth and will cause them to use up more food.
Keep that air moving.
