Let there be white: mc130p's horticultural adventure continues

trying to decide if I should top them again:

Go Ahead And Get Medieval With Dem Nasty Azz's

Probably best to smoke a doobie before you read this...very interesting!

Very cool thoughts and not that far out imo. They respond and exhibit intelligence in things like leaning or bending towards lights. In open pollination I've noticed purposeful behaviour like synching up in maturity and males growing towards and above the females for better chance of pollination. Are these behaviours automatic/reflex for survival or are they consciously doing these things and communicating?? Cool stuff.

They finally shipped my Grasshopper, should have it Monday.

That's great! I hope you like it

Here's a quick update on the girls (hopefully). They're all still growing, maybe a slight deficiency or I was a tad bit late going to the 100% nute strength, but still doing nicely:

Hey everyone! I hope your week is going well

The girls still haven't shown sex....they aren't even showing alternating nodes yet-seems like it's just starting. So, I definitely could have topped them, but I didn't. I almost lost one of the mains on the girl in the back right. I was spreading them out to keep her a bit shorter...well, I guess I got too carried away and almost broke the whole stem off, right at the V. The branch looked like it was going to be lost, but she popped back to life, though it looks stunted compared to the rest of the plant. Oops! haha

They've gotta show their parts any day now!

Still nothing! They're getting some cropping:

We have one girl confirmed (the middle one) !

Are you noticing delayed sexing under the cobs vs when you had the inda-gro in the tent?

They were 16/8 for the first 10 days or so, so no I'd say everything is seeming normal so far-they're only ~30 days old. The first one showed sex about a week ago I think.

Hey RIU peoples I hope you're all doing well, and are ready for the new year!

The girls are really filling up the cabinet, and some pretty uniform looking plants, for being from seed:


I think I'm ditching the saucers, since if a blumat fails and water goes everywhere, the plants can still use it and get watered from the bottom.

Hey everyone, here's to the end of 2016!! Let's hope 2017 brings many good things to all of us RIU peoples

Here's the last pic of the year for the girls They're getting bigger and bigger! I hope things don't get too weird in the next weeks

Hey RIU peoples I hope you're all doing well!

Here's a quick pic of the cabinet...it's a full house:
