First Grow!

[mdjenks]

oh I forgot to mention that it is lemon skunk and smells like star burst and has a pungent sweet woodsy taste.

Nice seeds. Throw some this way haha j/k but nice nugs. Here are some pics I just took about half an hour ago of the ladies. I had to feed them so I figured I would take pics.

Very nice harvest! My friend got his first plant finished soon. There is not alot weed on it. But well, were learning!

 

[mdjenks]

If it was then, I really have almost no clue what strains they are haha. They are both bag seeds. Someone said they could be a type of kush. I don't know for sure. The bigger plant already is smelling up the whole room. When I touch the leaves and smell my fingers afterwards I can smell a sweet and yet sour smell. It smells like a lime and grapefruit mix. The other has no smell yet. But I hope they both turn out to yield some dank buds.

hope none of them turn out to be males!

Same here...I will be very disappointed if I grow them out to flowering time and they grow balls. If so, then I will chop the fuck out of them.

 

[nubbis1020]

I was bored so I put together a folder of a timeline picture type thing of both of my plants.

The first plant-




Second Plant-

You can force males to grow female parts with no balls. Ripening fruit gives off ethylene gas, or you can buy a spray. Ethylene gas purportedly causes male plants to grow female flowers. If there are any balls, I would think any pollination will produce male-only seeds. The opposite of this is when you have a female plant and you use a mutagen called gibberellic acid which produces male flowers, and pollinating itself will produce female-only seeds (feminized). I haven't tried ethylene, but I did read that somewhere. Tell me if I'm wrong. Get some green bananas and place one or two under the plant when you start the 12/12. Scrub them first with soap and water so there won't be any fruit flies. Replace them when they ripen.

That is very interesting, I did not know that. So if I start seeing signs of a male, I can force it to have a sex change?

idk, it may already be too late. Females tend to be bushier. If it rapes your women and razes your home, guaranteed male.

 

[nubbis1020]

Razes my home? Wtf? lmao and my plants are quite bushy for their age. The bigger one is 3 weeks old and the smaller one is 12 days old. Even so, there is no guaranteed way of telling the sex up until balls or pistils start forming.

 

[nubbis1020]

Here are two new pics I just took. Cheers.

 

[James87]

Looking good. Those are indica's from the looks of it.

Followed the entire thread...your plants are looking healthy and nice for your first man! Keep on doin' what your doing and you'll be fine!

"Looking good. Those are indica's from the looks of it." I was thinking the same thing. I was hoping for sativa, but I can deal with Indica. "Followed the entire thread...your plants are looking healthy and nice for your first man! Keep on doin' what your doing and you'll be fine!" Thanks man.

 

[nubbis1020]

I don't mean to double post, but does my plant look big enough to do a LST? I was thinking about doing it, also how long should I do it for?

 

[nubbis1020]

Here are new pics of the ladies. View attachment 1967016View attachment 1967017View attachment 1967018View attachment 1967019View attachment 1967020View attachment 1967021


And can anyone answer this question for me? I want to start LST, is my bigger plant big enough to? It is 24 days old.

 

[mdjenks]

Not sure what LST is but I would top that bigger one so you can have two main colas. here are some pics of my two ladies. One is blowing up like the world trade.



Im right at 32 days and once again they are both autoflowers; BCN Diesel and AK47. The big one is BCN Diesel, very easy to grow and will take all the nutes you can give her.

LST. To my knowledge is when you tie the plant to the side of like a pot or to something kind of bending it over for a certain amount of time. Oh yeah and I was thinking about topping. So think my bigger plant is ready for that? I am not sure how to do it exactly. By the way diesel strains are from what I hear easy, as you just stated. They also turn out very dank. Some of the smelliest shit I have ever smoked too. (sour diesel)

 

[mdjenks]

All you have to do to top is cut the middle from the top node or if you have three sets of branches i.e. nodes that come of the main stalk. Once you cut the middle top it will quickly grow two more shoots and thus you will have two main colas. and yes your bigger is ready to be topped.
