First Closet CFL Grow

toolage said:

yeah giggle, unfort. not even a sign of a calyx yet on stretch. i dont know wtf his problem is but I'm not liking it lol. I'll wait a couple more weeks for him to see, but if shes taking this long to show, she's gotta be female right?

My guess would be yes, The tallest & least dense out of my 3 plants took ages showing sex & she turned out female

I'm keeping my fingers crossed 4 u T xxx

i use feminized seeds and have had great results -- the only caveat being - do not try to breed them or use them to get seeds because (from what i understand) fem seeds are genetically unstable.

I think many of the professional weed breeders would like to do away with them but they are too popular

Oh man thank you for the info, breeding is way too far over my head. lol have to get the cloning down first

hey gg!! i really really hope stretch is a female because I really dont just want 1 plant for harvest. Thanks for your support xx.

Hell yea dat how i roll up in ma hood

So I did a little experiment last night because I was absolutley stoned as hell. I took Mary umm or should I say Martin out of my other closet. It had almost completley died and all the leaves were shriveled and some were extremely crsipy.

I turned it over and started pulling and shredding a couple of the roots. I took my blender and filled it with 8 cups of non balanched ph water with half a drop of superthrive. I gave it a good feeding of water and more water and more water. Then i let the rockwool soak in the water for about 15 minutes, and poured the water out with the plant still in it.

I went out to get me some food, came back and I shit you not, that thing was completely back to normal and looks like I never even took it out of the grow op.

Anyways, a fun little high experiment, it's now in a trashbag!

hey bro thanks for your support! The clones did die around page 14 I believe lol. It was I believe 39 days veg but I'll have to go back and double check on that. Today is Day 16 of flowering.

bombass!! ya i was just trying to see how much longer I should actually veg, if if i should top or fim , i'm not quite sure on which to do and or the benifits of either one. Blehness I see you topped juana? Is that spelled right? Did it turn out the way you wanted

Yeah I topped all 3 of my plants with 2 in success. Stretch which still hasn't shown sex and he's the only one that didn't get topped correctly. My next grow I am definently doing fimming. You get more yeild because of how many colas you get out of it. Just cut 3/4 of the top instead of the whole top. Topping is probably easier in my opinion and a good way to learn!

k just rea fimming is , cutting 3/4s of the new growth off to grow 4 colas or more?

these may help clarify topping and the topping using the Fuck, I Missed (or FIM) technique:

lol.....................

I read in a guys Journal (he is doing a constant ebb flow grow and harvesting every two weeks) and he does not top due to his set-up (space restrictions will all those plants going) anyway
what he said is topping is sort of a waste being yes you have two tops but they are each smaller than if you left it alone.
Talking weight of final harvest.
Does anyone know more about this?
Would one larger center bud be better (more) than 2 smaller ones on a topped plant? or is this all a bunch of Hooey!
lol
Funny about the rebirth of Martin T. almost got caught surfing at work due to laughter

I also heard that, I haven't topped any of my plants with my 1st grow I just wanted to keep um as nature intended, I have no problem with topping, I may do an experiment next time - just top 1 plant & see if I get a bigger yield x

Ok everyone, bear with me for a few and apologize for the quality of this camera. My good one I had to send off to warranty so I'm stuck with this piece of crap Kodak. It has the worst Macro I've ever seen in a camera. So I took the pictures from a safe distance and I have a program that zooms in 20x and the top picture is it's result. Very crappy, but I drew a circle and arrows of where you need to draw your attention. These pictures are of Juana, pictures of both of her Colas.

Juana still hasn't popped out any buds which is kind of worrying me a little bit but she has shown her sex.

If you look closely you can see the 2 white hairs to show its female


Cola #1


Cola #2

i do actually see the thin barely seeable lines that look like hairs <3 lol gg Shes looking good, nice colas, looks like their gonna be nice sizes

Wow T, they're looking mega healthy

Still got my fingers crossed 4 u x

thanks for the compliments!!! yeah right now the size of each cola is 19" and they are both even in size!

This might be by far the biggest cola I've seen personally with my own eyes lol. Juana is getting near 3 feet tall.

wow 3ft thats good sized, and they do look real healthy too great job T
