What do you mean it won't germinate? My experience has been that they grow more after they start flowering. The auto ak-47s I have growing in my gh at 5 weeks are over a foot tall now. What kind of lights do you have? The temps? In the future AF's do better if you just start them in a 2g (5l) pots because of their shorter lifespan, their need for root space and the fact that transplanting can be stressful.
