hello i am about a week and some change away from harvest on my black gold auto(lsted her to a scrog state without the net, love the canopy. anyways i started a new batch of seeds, i used the papper towel method this time. put them in soil about 6 days ago, the diamond auto lost a round starter leave when it dropped the shell but she is back at it and growing good. the ak - 49 is getting big quick and the norden blue's have broad fat single blades coming in and the color is a cool green. i am growing in soil(ffof) and fabric royal pots 3 gallons. i find that this size bag keeps em from getting real big and it lets me lst and train with having a strong monster root system. i have grown out some norden seeds the tropicals and i loved em good gene's. so wish me luck this is the first ak-49 i have every put to soil so i am excited to see how this works out. i am using cfl bulbs until i can get either a 600 watt hid or an equal strength led but i am afraid of the leds due to all the chinese fakes. wish me luck and may the green thumb be with u all. respect

i forgot i start them in 5 inch peat cups and the vikings are in 3inch, at two weeks i usualy transplant to fab bag with the 5inch cup but the 3 inch cup ima transplant at 10 days to keep the roots from curling around the bottom i want them to go deep and get strong.
 
the 2 norden viking blue auto's root system was growing thru the bottom of the peat cup, so i moved them to their final grow bags 3 gallon royal grow bags. with ffof soil. pictures a bit later

these are the norden viking blue auto in 3 gallon royal pots with ffof soil.
 
I will be transplanting the diamond and the ak to 3 gallon grow bags today after i get some soil from the store. updated pix later today. man the norden auto blues are realy taking off in the bigger bags. they like to dig their roots deep and the fab bags air prune the roots so the rootmass after harvest is always awesome.
 
i have moved all 4 plants to 3 gallon royal pots fab bags. with ffof and perlite with lava rock at the bottom 2 inches. pictures as soon as i get back home.

IMG_20140617_201447_467.jpgthis is the ak 49 and the little one is the diamond nl, looks like the runt northern lights got some ph trouble and started to lockout, got a new meter and fixed the problem, runoff at 6.2 so i figured i was ok, and the ph going into the soil was 6.5. she looks a little light green but a few days she should be back to 100%

velcro and these royal pots are the easiest way to lst i have used, the velcro has a soft side cause its for plants(got it from hydro store). i love it when the strech happens cause thats when the branches grow into monster tops. now for the wait.
 
the ak 49 has already doubled in size i will start doing three or 4 day updates with the pix so u can see the same growth i can. thanx
