^^^ SGS i've seen some AF's get huge in coco on here. If I weren't so lazy.busy I'd definetly give it ago.
The size difference is probably down to lighting?

hey guys, i dont have the origanal f1 of hk x af i had 1 seed left grew it out got a female & 1/2 way into flower decide i wanted to keep the genetics around but was too late to clone & the only pollen i had left was satori. i just checked & i have 13 seeds left of icon....is it too late i assume to make f2's from them & find af traits? i was thinking that they could be lowryder or ruderalis skunk when i was researching auto to narrow down but from the reports i read it didnt seem to have the potency that mine carried it was quite strong so i dont know but possibly. my 2003 af reeked like skunk & not like dutch sweet skunk but like roadkill the icon also reeeeks extremely strong like catpiss & burnt rubber from what i remember.
i think i have to agree with mitch as im using 192w t5's & they just dont have the penatration & intensity as mh or hps also the original plan was to grow these strictly outside (organicly in happy frog soil) so im just doing it this way for now just to make seeds for the future grows which will all be outdoors but i was also planning on doing a hybrid possibly to grow indoors too. maybe later in the year i'll try it again but under 600w hps & we'll see how it turns out. anyways thanks for all your input & advice you guys have provided & viewing my not so great grow.

If you save some pollen, perhaps cross it to a Non-AF which could knock the flowering time down or you might get some semi-AF's that flower sooner.
I think these would work outside for container grows, I'm not sure about planting them in the ground though as they don't get very large.
Who knows though if you have a decent climate? You may be surprised

i have a perfect climate i live in southern california & everything just mitch - thrives here. i just recently tried to pollenate the female outside with lapis x gdp pollen my friend gave me so if that goes i'll have to grow them out to look for early flower traits & then cross those.
sgs - thanks for your experience input with lowryder it sounds like it very well could've been it i guess i was a lucky one that got a great pheno. i treat my coco as if it were hydro you could say, i use hydro nutrients the only thing different that i do from hydro is give coco grown plants more calmag plus thats it.i was a hydro grower before coco but i still use soil when growing outdoors.
update time: i was going to get floranova bloom but never did & ive been using iguana bloom instead progress is still a bit slow. ive collected a nice amount of pollen from the males.heres my 2 girls

whats interesting is that i posted that just a few hours ago & it says i posted it yesterday......i droped my camera from about 3 feet & its struggling to focus so my shots aren't the greatest.....
outside plant
crappy pic but wanted to show that even on the leaves the trichs are purpling
indoors no color hard to see but the seeds are just starting to form & there will be quite a few seeds.i'll update again when their easily visable.

i saved quite a bit of pollen i plan on crossing it to lazuliberry a creation of lapis mnt indica x blueberry sativa that i have starting to flower outdoors. i may also hit my pre92 afghan x purple urkle creation too.
i saw mitches text grow on the pinkbud i love the coloration on them thats part of the reason i wanted these that & the low price had me sold. thanks for keeping your seed prices low SGS! cant wait to start the f2's & do it the right way next time.

Did you end up with enough seeds for an AF-Sog?

yeah about 115 i'll have to put the sog off for a little while though but will get some going outdoors end of winter. smoked the plant that i did outdoors i think i pulled it a week early but it had a nice heady euphoric buzz that reminded me alot of blueberry & gave me major munchies.
oh & i pollenated my afghan x purple urkle with one of the fs x pb fathers

Hey mate, goodluck on the grow.
Fyi, the best thing to use against fungus gnat larvae is mosquito dunks. The agent is a bacteria thats harmless to plants and humans. Gets into the larvae's stomach and makes them explode.
Theres a thread about it in the infirmary.
