Monkey's random collectings, first indoor

[MonkeyKing]

ok guys, I have decided to start a jurno, I was a bit sketchy about this because I dont like to talk too much about what I do.

So I have started with a random mix of beans I collected off some mates that say it came out of good stuff, The lad I got the lights off ( 400 and 600 watt HPS) gave me some very fluffy and really not good looking clones. 30 all up but only 2 have survived ( due to rough transplanting because its crap). Also he gave 40 or so Durban poison beans that were 5 or 6 years old :(.

I planted 20 and got 2 but 1 has turned male ( spotted Today) the other is a bit younger and has not shown yet. They about 4 weeks old and VERY healthy nice looking plants I will post some photos soon. 2 of 7 seedlings are male, so I put them outside to get big fo hash plants instead of just killing them. is this a good idea?

but any way I also have some more seedlings from both bush and hydro buds I have smoked that was alright, 22 so far have come up and I transplanted them today too. I have been spacing out my planting so I have plants in 3 stages. seedlings- 3 footers - flowing girls. If i can get a nice strain from anything I have I will just start cloning it instead of seedlings.

Plus I did 28 clones from the clones me mate gave me! and they all surived. Im pretty sure the plants get enough light because they grow fast and nice.

That's a lot of plants! Good luck, any pictures of the handy work yet? We all love bud porn!

[MonkeyKing]

Oh yes, The dirt im using is a mix of humas-sand-small sharp rocks- and choir peat bricks, with about a tsp of slow release osmocote fert.

[MonkeyKing]

sorry . no bud porn! everything is veging and i dont know why

has been 12-12 for 4 weeks. but really i only wanna find out if these seedlings are good quality stuff. then i will re-veg, but nothing buds anyways.

I think i need new bulbs

Try this to help with the picture issue...4 weeks of 12/12 and they haven't shown? That seems odd.

Ok, finally a day off.

I looked in today and found that my 2nd durban poison is male too! cant get closeups of his balls yet, small but balls all the same. I guess i wasnt patient enough because all is sexing now.



I have 3 very nice little plants from 3 different types of nice indoor, transplanted on the 11th april. all were tiny seedlings when transplanted




and the next generation of bush seedlings on the way too, 4 in a pot because i have 5 males out of 7 seedlings!


all poped out on 11th april aswell

[MonkeyKing]

thanks l8night.
i must say yours look nice too. cant wait till mine get a bit taller. or i can finally find some girls!

[l8tnightskunk]

thanks, Good luck on the grow! ill stay posted! plants looking good!

[MonkeyKing]

thanks man,
I really need to get some good genetics but im worried that i will just spend the money and not receive the beans( weather customs or rip off) and if customs gets them befor I do, i dont want people to come kicking my front door in.

how discreat is the packaging and can someone recommend a good bank they use, of course i have checked out the sponsors page and i like kc brains cheapness and some of the others , but would like some first hand knowledge on the matter? also has anyone tried to get some beans into australia?

[MonkeyKing]

hey guys, this morning i went into the feild to check my durban male.

however this time the "male" flowers i saw a week ago now seem to have sprouted hairs.

what do you guys think? i swear they looked like balls B4
he-she grew about 5 inches in the last week since i transplanted it outside,

[l8tnightskunk]

Looking very good! and yeah i tought all of my plants were male at first because you see those lil pods and get scared and assume its a male because we dont see any hairs. But i just waited and before you knew it one grew more pods and the other two i noticed hairs was very relieved. keep up the nice work

[MonkeyKing]

WOW! this is very good news!!
I might start cloning it soon because this is the only way i can get this one back inside , I also have 1 more Durban seedling still inside, so i sill hold out on chucking it outside untill im really sure!!
she smells very strong for a small plant both of the durbans. 1 stinks the whole coldroom out within minutes

Hey guys thought i would update withh a few more pics.
here is a couple to compare the first is my Durban baby straight after i planted her.
