[AndyBotwin]

Andy that pak is gorgeous but I got to stick to my sr1! She is one yummy dank looking sexy lady Great job as always my friend! :thumbs:

Yeah, that Snowryder is a beast that just won't quit. I can't wait to see what the final yield will be. :booya:

 

[AndyBotwin]

Beautiful dude. Plain and simple. That PAK is still my favorite for sure. The purples are just gonna get me every time I think.

Thanks, Squid. The PAK is so different from the others. They're skunky and rough - all business. Meanwhile the PAK is like a beautiful flower - delicate in appearance and aroma. I hope she's saving her dirty side for the smoke. :smoke:

Ooh la la. I like a little hidden dirty side.

Very nice once again Andy. They don't look like they skipped a beat while you were away. :thumbs: to you bro. Patiently awaiting your next harvest :smokebuds:

Thanks, Cap. Always good to have a pro like your self following along.

Super super dank Andy great growing bro and great pics as well I am loving the AKR I am glad I have a few on the way and that PAK looks so cool bro I'm loving the colors

Thanks, SS. This is the best part of the grow. Just throw some water on them a few times a week and watch those flowers go.

Everything is looking great Andy. That SR looks and sounds just like the bush pheno I get with Mi5. She fox tails and puts out new white hairs, just don't wanna stop. I took one to 13 weeks like that. I have 1 fem AKR, by the looks of yours I wanna pop it soon!

Good to hear that somebody else has seen a similar growth pattern. I guess some people don't like the look of fox-tailing but I think it's cool as hell. Though I do wish this girl would get on with her business. Ideally I would like these in jars curing below 65% by June 1st. At some point soon I'll have to pull the plug regardless of the growth. You definitely need to get cracking on that AKR. Mine hasn't been the healthiest, so under the right conditions I could see this strain easily yielding 3-4 ounces.

That was a fast 72 days Andy. Isn't that one of the coolest things about Autos? You go away for the weekend, come home and harvest. So it seems, anyway.
That AKR is sweet! Reminds me of my RA. She was "done" but I let her go a little longer and she was like, "duh...", and started throwing out the calyxes left and right like there's no tomorrow. Fun stuff.
And it's been a fun grow to follow. I'm glad it's coming to safe end. Happy Harvesting over the next few weeks!
:smokebuds:

Thanks, Noods. Always good to have you following along. Autos definitely fit my busy lifestyle & I don't think I'd be growing if photos were the only option. Three months from seed to cured in the jar is fantastic!

Andy that is just plain tits bro! You always do phenomenal work! That AKR getting rock hard is typical of Afghan Kush Photos. From the sounds of it you're in for a left, right, punch! + rep to you my friend and ENJOY that harvest!! I know you will!! :buds:

:smokebuds:

Thanks for the kind words and rep, brother. I know that my Pak Ryder was a kick in the head, and from what I hear the AKR can be even stronger. I should be sitting on a big stockpile of some serious pain relief meds when this one is finished.

Dang andy you are knocking it out of the park bro

Thanks, man. Although my girls are twigs compared to the monsters you crank out, I'm pretty satisfied with things. Even after the early stunting, the combination of a full organic grow and the new lights has really come together nicely. :howdy:

Quick update with some harvest action. The AKR got the chop today mainly because I had a couple hours free to do it. Not the fattest buds that I've grown, but definitely the most dense. They made an audible thump sound when I dropped them on the table. Fairly standard earthy citrus smell that you expect from a affy kush, and the buds were super sticky. I had to clean my scissors around ten times while grooming. I figure around a couple ounces dry weight not including a bunch of popcorn buds on the trim pile. So with that one out of the tent, we have the neverending story of the PAK and SR1, which both keep popping fresh pistils and getting fatter. I'll let them go a bit longer but eventually they're going to run up against a hard deadline at the end of the month. Unfortunately the RRF started yellowing out quite a bit since I last checked the plants on Saturday. I gave a little calmag and an extra shot of veg nutes to slow that down. Way too early to start losing fan leaves...

The other bad news is that one of the ballasts on my Badboy seems to be on the fritz. Today I noticed that the center set of lights was not on, but it fired up with a toggle of the switch. When I was done with the AKR a couple hours later, it was out again. I did notice that the power plug had worked itself loose while I was adjusting the fans last week, so I'm hopeful that it's just a power issue. Otherwise I'll just have to deal with it and get through this grow before exchanging it.

AKR - Day 79
