when u find out, can u post a pic of each sex? one male and one female for comparison?
the lights come on in 1 hour so I'll try to get pics (cheap camera). I got pics of both boys and girls already.

look here https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/83765-my-first-clone.html I cloned some males and females so there should be some pics

and here https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/77942-my-first-grow.html I grew some males thru pollen colletion for a seed crop. Plus grandma of the three big plants I have are of Plant #1 in this thread.

No sex yet on any just new growth, This is a good sign for girls. Keep in mind their ages are 19 to 15 days and only alittle over 1/2 are 18 day or older. Boy show starting on day 18 girls may take all the way to day 24.

Just like MrsRocket always late? hum?



Here is about 20 minutes after their dawn. 3 of them are over 3".

A couple people have asked about air handling.

I did this https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/89078-diy-carbon-filter.html a while back.



That the filter and main blower. I NEVER turn it off! I live in a large city apartmet complex. 100% no smell going on 1 year. Yes, I change the filter before it's used up.

Here is a pic from last summer (I just learned to clone)

see were iI vent to out side.

Both plants are cloned from plant the same mother on the same day. The one on the left after rooting went under an 18/6 veg. The one on the right after rooting went on a 12/12 flower cycle.

this next pic is the plant all my type 3 seeds came from. (Red Cups). Also the biggest plant I ever grew. 49.5" and 3/4 pound dry (very seedy as it was a seed crop and I have a shit house of seed from here.)



oh and this pic isn't 1/2 way thru her flower.

This was a post from last julyish? I've tweeked it but here is the ground work

This will be a pic run thru of the air system.

You can see the AC inlet to the room. Also on both sides of the door are two air inlets for the grow box.

What I've done is attach a 4" dry hose to 50% of the air inlet by the AC vent.

The hose runs up to the 430 watt ballast. A 12 volt computer fan suck air thru the hose and blows on some louvers. The cold air blows thru the ballast. The ballast is always cool to the touch. The fan only runs when the lights are on.

This pic was take awhile ago before the Mylar. You can see the sound proof stuff (blue). But light can pass thru some. There is a better shot of the ballast set up.

Next is the coffee csn csrbon filter. It's attached to the sucktion side of the blower.

The outlet hose goes thru the roof and down the side.

It exhausts out the window.

fan to blow air under the light.

This is the grow box (flash on) .

This is the grow box (flash Off) .

Those are old pic when I was building it. Now it is dark as dark can be. The stuff blooms in there so it must be dark enough for them.

I also think go out side and look around at night you can see a lot. I used to live in the country and on a full moon you can read a book.

No sex yet but it is morring an day 20. They all have those little preflowers that could just be first day new growth or the sex. It's my friday nigth so I check all my night their day.

I took the tray out for a close look.


As soon as I know the # of girls I can deside or repots or not. If no one show sex by tomarrow I'll look for light leaks. I switch the rooms night/day by 12 hours just be for the start of the seeds. If is easer to keep the grow room dark at night. It may be as simple as black out the window all the way. I don't think any light can get in but I will check anyway this weekend.

Looking great Randy- checking to see if any turned to the dark side(male) So when you do the bagseed 12/12 from seed, you obviously get mixed results an far as yields, right? Or do most of the bagseed turn out close to eachother?
