2 plants, 1 clone, 9 seeds from the 60's/70's

alright so i got 2 plants 1 ak48 and another afgahni hindu kush and 1 clone from ak48 after i topped it. the ak48 is a hermi, the kush is undeclared and stopped growing for about roughly 3weeks i don't know why but it did now it started growing 2 nodes way at the bottom the the top is all dead. hermi is doing the best its about 4/5ft tall under 2 23 watt cfl for now. when my light splitters come in it will be 6 cfl's and probably be 44watt. anyways to sum it all up i am wondering after the lst, and bushing and topping (at 7 tops already!) when should i flower her she is in a 9ft closet and plenty of side room when she doubles in size. ohh and i found some old seeds back in the day i think they where mawi wawi or somthing i cant remember anyways i planted those after i germinated them in a glass of water for 27 hours and no tap root but i said hey why not just plant um so i did. they have been in the soil for i think 2 weeks and no growth out of them yet but who knows i had seeds take up to 2 years before they sprouted maybe it just needs some more time. after i get some money from this grow im swiching to 2 200 watt cfl's 1 5000k 1 2500k (the same kelvin as right now) i started feading molases last night and i cant wait till i see the difference from 0 nutes to molasses for nute . dont ask for pictures because i dont have a camera yet also this is my 1st grow and it started in a window ledge haha. going for sog next grow due to the amount of seeds i will get from my ak48.

I'm pretty sure molasses is more used as a sweetener then a nute, and your going to need a lot more light for what's going to be a 10ft plant. you should have flowered a while ago since now you migt just have a bunch of popcorn buds due to Cfls only helping anything that is a few inches from the light

yes, but i think i am going to just make her a mother

Molasses gives a high dose of K ( potassium) and a few other mico nutes (calcium and iron) if you plan to only use that...youll have alot of problems, im guessing you have some time release nutes in the soil? .. Also he's right about the lighting..plus your one bulb is out of spectrum ... An youll neeed diff ones for flowering.. An remember your plant will basically double in size when flowering, are you going to make the hermie a mother??


My last grow... I had 15 cfls in my grow box plus a led board

ya making it a mother i know not a good idea but hey bud is bud and when your low on money you use what you can get right?

I don't want to rain on your parade, but I'm not sure you'll be yielding an awful lot with your current lighting. Further, your hermie will pass on its hermie genetics to all clones/seeds you take from it. You'll be selling airy, seedy bud. Seeds with decent genetics don't cost much, and are widely available online. Adding more bulbs to your setup is essential if you want dense flowers.

Good luck.

True, however growing eats up alot of time n effort imo not worth the time fr a hermie, wait for a good seed to mom

Most genetics only last about 5 years, those old seeds you planted, i think you are waiting on a pipe dream............just sayin

Ur best bet is to get sum hoods & a bunch of hanging double CFLs, you want light all around your plants as CFLs don't penetrate like MH or HPS and I do mean all around...And I heard Molasses is used as a flushing agent in the last 2 or 3 weeks of flowering, (1/2 Table spoon per gallon of 3 day old tap water) just before pullin.

if you add molasses and epsom salt to a gallon of water, you pretty much make calmag.
