    Hello Everybody!

    I have 4 autoflowering plants growing indors in a grow box (more or less 1.8m high).
    The plants not flowering are the AK Kush Express. I have them set in a HighPro Basic 80cm x 80cm x 160cm 1 Kit ETI1 Pro-Grow HPS 250W 1 Extrator Vents 125 1 Intrator Vents 100 - with a cycle of 20/4.
    The soil is basic light mix.
    I have been using an universal fertilizer every 4 days and watering the plants every 2 days with tap water.

    My plants grew quite nicely and fast but they started having yellow tips and some yellow leafs on top.
    I believe this could be a nutrient deficiency so I bough those nutrient injections to cover for iron, coper and nitrogen deficiency.

    The big problem is that they have 8 weeks now and they did not flower, is this normal? They dont have any buds and I am concerned they are dying. Please help!

    (I am talking about the 2 plants on the left!)

    Sales Blurb:
    Kalashnikov Seeds - AK Kush Express
    The prefix "express" in the name is added for a good reason. These varieties are remarkable because they give a good harvest feminized plant two weeks earlier than its counterparts.
    Express strains aren't autoflowering strains. Absolutely unique seeds, novelty on the world market, and in order to avoid counterfeits Kalashnikov don't fully specify the genetics in the description of those varieties. This is basically AK Kush fem, only a much more rapidly growing and flowering version of it. The new strain is genetically is composed by breeding the common AK Kush with Kalashnikov's secret Express hybrid. The result is a bit sweeter and aromatic than its feminized variation and it's very much more Indica-like. It can be harvested two weeks prior to AK Kush common harvesting period, yet the amounts of production stay massive.

    Avoid feed ing the plants once every 10-14 days is enough..right now I'd be flushing them excess nutes out with 3 times the pot volume with air temp ph'ed water allow to drain overe night to resume in the morning

    good luck

    Hey, Thank you for your message! Yeap you are right, I tought they were autoflowering. In any case all seed companies say this plants should flower in 8 weeks which is not happening, do you think its because I am not doing 12/12 cycle? I am growing the AK together with the Micromachine and a BlueberryGhost and these ones are fine, if I change the light to 12/12 to help my AK flower, will I damage the other ones?
    Thanks for your help!

    set your light timer to 12x12 and all your plants will fall to flower/bud

    ready for harvest in about 60 days

    check the tric color before the first cut

    clear white amber ..???

    good luck
