Hi Rotted, everything growing well over here....I think. I've been fighting off nanners here and there for a week or so, although I seem to have the gals back under control for the moment. Their growth seems to have slowed down a bit this last week (towards the end things seem a little tougher for us)...but no worries at the moment It's my first grow and ya live and ya learn, right? That's why I am here after all.....to learn from people who are willing to share their experiences (I'm a hands on kinda learner), and to share with you all my experience as well. This is my first grow and it will NOT be my last. It is a little tougher here than most mm states. We do not yet have clones, or dispensaries, no organic hydro stores to get fancy dirt and stuff from. We have to GROW it with very minimal resources and it SUCKS! If you didn't have to pay the state $30,000 a year just to "be" a dispensary, I would be #1 on the list you bet your ass!!!!!! They sure do make it tough on us boy!!!! We have to renew our mm licenses every year and pay the man the fee.....EVERY YEARHey catt. How is it growing. You and I are in the same boat!! It's not like we can run out and pick up a few sweet clones from the overstock department or just outright purchase decent seeds at a reasonable price. Were stuck in N.E.
I'm with the chief and am just a little worried that your going to plant Shorty's offspring and end up with a 95% male hermaphrodites. Sometime a hermie is 99% male and sometimes 99% female or anywhere in between. You just don't know and the chances that shorty's seeds will produce plants like shorty are pretty slim. It would really suck big time to put 12 weeks into plants that just are not going to do it for you. You would be better off just going with good bagseed again. Even if they are long growing Sativa's I think you would be happier.
I'm going to bite the bullet and buy 10 femmed seeds for outdoors next spring. I am also hoping that my goodbagseed X Master Kush cross produces some healthy seed. Won't be femmed, but what the hell. Right now I'm thinking Aurora or black indica but you are not kidding about choices!!! Far too many strains for me to make the right decision. I need short fast plants even for my outdoor situation. I got 4 out of 5 decent plants out of Nirvana which is OK on one hand and flushing a 10 spot down the hopper on the other.
Do some more research my friend cause I don't know chit but I would really hate for you to have a failed experiment. What's the story?? Your camera broken! Rock on sister. I'm thinking two weeks max for me and I am down to molasses only now. I might even get a decent yield if I'm lucky. Say hey to your dirty little girls for me.
Anyways, sorry for ranting about that.....just makes me so mad ya know? I agree about my seeds, I haven't found anymore so far, and the few I did find I pulled off before they could mature and get hard. That's been my life the past week....pulling and checking and pinching and checking. At least I have a reason to rough em up a little bit....lol! And I don't want things to suck for me either....so guess what I did???? I told my husband I would just "LOVE" to be able to order some seeds for Valentines Day. So he bought me a visa gift card so I could pick out what I wanted. I decided to go with Bubblelicious, I got 5 feminized seeds. I could of got the auto flower for the same price but I don't mind veggin for a little while And now that I have my setup the way I want (minus good ventilation which I will be taking care of) I think I can get a pretty good yield. I wish I could use my compost bin, whoever put it 50 ft away from my door, downhill, in the dark, is an idiot. As soon as it starts getting warm I'll be moving it right next to my front door and you can help me with making my OWN stinky stuff I'm thinking I'd like to take all of my bagseed ( I have 100's) and do something with them outdoors...not sure if the summer lasts long enough up here
I'm down to molasses only now too....officially now....I did give them 1/2 strength bloom booster tonight for the last time. It just seems like they are so def. in everything I had to give them one last good meal before they die. I'm just trying to see how long the girls can hold out without pleasing themselves and making too many seeds. I'm figuring about 2 weeks too! Thursday will be about 8 weeks, do you count the flowering time as when you saw pistils or when you flipped to 12/12? Up in the air about that one?? I sure will tell the girls you said hi, and they told me to tell you they are trying sooo hard to clean up their act!!! Gonna update in a few minutes once I get the pics pulled off my camera Happy Valentines Day xoxoxoxox
