I got some going right now. Been going over 6 mths. I thought they were autos. In the photoperiod section not so auto Ak48's
Nirvana used to have an AK48 that was an auto but they had trouble w/ the auto feature so they called them photo for a while ... I see they have them available in auto flowering again ... I grew the photo variety and they did fine ... more than likely the auto variety will flower w/o changing the lights but if they haven't flowered by 6 weeks I'd change the lights to 12/12 ... I would expect them to flower properly even at 24/7 ... have yours begun to flower yet ? What type of light are you using ?
awesome to have some helpful interest, thanks
i definitely bought them as autoflowers, feminized, bout 2 months ago from nirvana (the sagamartha thing is confusing), i thought maybe they were a new thing. i have found posts here and there that were negative, but all i found was from years ago, so im hoping theyve come a long way, and being new, would explain my hard time finding info
I dont think they have begun to flower yet, my first go at this, but i have done some homework, a lot. thats why i am after some pic for comparison. i thought i saw a pistil here and there, but cant say for sure, from what i gather, it can be obvious but not always. i am being impatient, but it doesn't help to read a lot of the 'never flowered' and i dont want that
anyways, heres where im at, where i been
5 Nirvana fem. Ak48
coco/per 70/30
200w HO-T5 for the first 28 days in a cab, got crowded
moved to bigger space under
400w MH now HPS (might be to soon??), 24/0, and i keep em close
canna coco a+b, GH Rapidstart, GH CalMg+, fresh spring water (ppm 120 or so) always phd to 5.8
run to waste
lots of airflow
temps in cab were 75-78
they are a little lower now 70-76
old home
new home
i think, never experienced any of this part of cannabis before, but i think, they are doing really well, bit crowed, the new space is not that much bigger, but i keep as close to the lights strongest footprint anyway
today they are 31 days old. Nirvana's site say "usually see pre-flowers around the 4th week", i i know i am to stay the course, and am hoping to see some signs soon.
i really wish i could see this strain in some journals, but again, can seem to find. maybe to new? hoping new and improved. i had night mares that they wont flower then they did into crazy male plants. i knew im just buggin, and impatient.
im thinking about putting together a journal, just not sure where and how exactly, as this forum business is as new as the plant
anyway, any help, tips, wld be fckin great, its a bit much navigating all the wonderful fact packed info the people of the internet have to offer
