well just checked on the babies and i think they are starting to autoflower, i think i'll know over the next week what the sex is going to be, one already looks to be male not sure tho hard to tell at this stage, the strain by the way is AK47xLRxLR and is 100% AF......

wow good to see people are doing some crosses with the LR autoflower trait.
i grew pure LR last summer, was very pleased, is just lacking in yield slightly. im going to do a little of crossing with the LR after this grow to try and breed some stronger bigger genetics into it. keep me posted

Hi man welcome, yea i dont really rate the LR by itself but some of the crosses are good, ive had over 2oz off the ak47xlr in the past, finishing in just over 70 days from seed.

the only thing i wouldnt rate is the LR's yield. doesnt really bother me at all, but some crosses with some bigger strains would be nice to do. the bud to size ratio is good though, and would be geat if you do a SOG with them, need feminized seeds for that ideally but..... i am planning to do that too !

check out my grow thread in my sig

Hey guys heres an update on my babies, they are about 3+ weeks old and doing well, they have nearly all showed sex, ive had 2 males that showed pretty early, there is 3 that are pumping out flowers but one is a bit slow, the runt, this one got the stem broke in transplant thats why its a bit behind but i think it will be a female.

well yesterday i potted up the 4 plants as a thought the last one was a female .....

ive put them in 2 gal pots, its a tight squeeze but they just about fit, i got my pc fans working today, can you believe it they have had no fans up untill now lol.........

ive just put 2 on the outtake and one on the plants, pasive in of course, good things about those fans they just link up, the tops of the plants are starting to change slowly showing more and more pistils .

do you use highbred aswell then? i was under the impression only highbred users qualified for Mdanzig's seeds. i am registered at HB but rarely use it as im not using AF any more, will do next run i think. are they similar to LR as in sex shown by 20 days? are you going with 18/6? i used to use 14/10 as yields are higher, however it takes about 7-10 days longer.

its normaly about 23 days plus the flower cycle starts, yea i use HB but no it was on OG that this happened a while back, thats why they was test seed, i use 24/7 just because it keeps things on a level plus shows the true AF traits.

i thought yields were really significantly lower using 24/0 compared with 18/6. and 18/6 was lower yielding than 14/10, i owe that one to lumenous :wink:
any chance of a pic update??
