Nutz... hmmm... excellent choice of words!

I ended up with 3 outta 4 for being boys in my soil grow but the female that I did get was amazing.

All the same your plants look wonderful.

 

[pan4gold49]

That sucks Dan K.
I hope the last one is a girl.
Good luck and keep it green.

Last chance. Here it is.

This last one was labeled my favorite on post number 16 of this thread. Still no sign.


How do I seperate the last ones roots from the boys roots? All 4 had grown together so I have quite a mess in the tank. Dont wanna just cut them I presume. If I get the last ones roots accidentally i figure that would tramatize the one thats left.

 

[Dan K]

Any help for my root issue?

 

[Ms.Fox]

Just clean them up the best you can. I have a feeling your plant is a girl... ;-)

 

[Dan K]

Thanks for the good MoJo Ms. Fox. Still no hairs today :{
But, the preflowers are for sure different looking than the boy's looked.
Should know by the end of the weekend for sure.
Definately a variety of plants though. (multiple bags, bagseed) This was the shortest, a lighter green and not as smelly as those nasty boys. It's been in 12/12 for almost 20 days now and still no 100% sex. Don't know if thats a good thing or bad thing, just noticable.

 

[Dan K]

The anticipation is killing me. I get butterflies in my stomach about 30 minutes before the light comes on. I keep thinking, "This is the day IT becomes a SHE". After all, the boys showed their balls a full week ago!

I'm hoping some white hairs pop out of these soon...

There's a good chance it'll be a girl. After it shows, would you be interested in taking clones off her and going back to veg for a little while. I mean, you probably want to fill in those empty holes in the lid.

 

[Dan K]

Oh don't worry she's gonna get cloned. I'm not a fan of rolling the dice and counting on chance anymore. I'm gonna take 2 clones and grow them as mothers. This one however, has to be cut by the second week of august. Thats why Im concerned about it not showing. It's pushing back it's harvest date by being so tardee. Already 21 days into flower...

Hopefuly starts to explode soon.

 

[CharlieMopps]

Most strains will go 70-80 days to fully mature. Are you moving in August? It's really not that hard to transport clones as they're pretty short.

 

[Dan K]

Not moving but won't be around for 5-6 days...we'll see. I guess I could have a buddy check on it. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. I just thought I'd be alot further along than I am now.

 

[Tead]

So, you started this grow less than 30 days ago... 5/25.. and your babies were single noded (sp?) sweethearts.
Your comment "I just thought I'd be alot further along than I am now." seems a bit off. I'm not trying to be rude or anything crazy.. but you're just rocking right along with a great grow. You seem to be all over any issue that presents. You're doing much better than the average first time grower, and flowering before 30 days is just f'ing awesome. I'm a little concerned that your expectations are unrealistic.
Perhaps I'm insane... but holy crap... what do you expect baby! On this track, you'll be harvesting before day 90! That just rocks!

just my 2 cents.. and I really hope I'm not offending... my words are meant as praise and suppport... really.


Cheers!

 

[Dan K]

No offense taken tead.
I'm modeling my grow after the book, Buds for Less by See More Buds.
He goes seed crack to chop in 69 days!!
Seeds cracked 37 days ago. I guess what worried me most was the last one not showing after 21 days 12/12. I thought something was wrong.
This is a prime example of how extreme flowering times can differ between strains.

The good news is.....

It's a Girl!!!
Let the bud porn begin!!!

 

[Tead]

Ahhh... ok.. gotcha. You've got an advanced grow plan in place.
Have you considered the AK47 strains? I've been curious, but havn't started/ordered any yet. It sure seems like they could provide a very quick start to a small sea of green concept. I've read that their quality is not great, but very solid. quick, and easy.
Great looking babies. Do you know what they are? I didn't see strain previously mentioned.


Cheers... and go baby go!

 

[CharlieMopps]

Sea of green works well when you have a good big mother and are good at taking clones.

 

[pan4gold49]

Thanks great news Dan K.
She's looking good too.

[Dan K]

Thanks for the rep Pan!

I got probably 100 seed that I've been saving over the years. They all came outta real good mids or that very rare seed in some fire.
Do seeds ever go bad?

 

[Ms.Fox]

No, as long as they are kept in a cool dry place. ;-)

 

[Dan K]

Day 39...Res change, Nute bump.

She's really starting to fill out. Kinda glad I ended up with only 1 girl now, I woulda had some space issues!

Is this Midget Bud Porn?

Thanks for watching.
