I have a tough decision to make. The FCJ rodelized (produced banana pods in her flowers) and I would really like to see if I can get some S1 seeds out of her.

Samantha has grown too big for the T-5 and the grow box. I have no way to light her as the grow tent is being used for drying the bud (the filter is in there).

I think I may have to kill Samantha even if I decide not seed the FCJ. She is really sativa leaning and it would be hard to light her with CFLs.

Really starting to hate the T5 light. I can't provide side lighting to the plant when I have the T5 hanging which caused Samantha to stretch like crazy. Just annoying.

if you found nanas then she has hermed, and all the beans will be herm. i would still have to try and run sam, i have talked to people that run nothing but sativa in cfls, and a couple on here. i got some almost pure sativa i want to try, but i;m leaning to the led side of the lights. i really like what captainmorgan has done with the cree a19's.

No she didnt herm. They just showed up on week 9.

Herms show early in flowering and produce nutsacks and calynx

Rodelization makes nanners come out of calynx at the end of flowering.

Samantha is gonna die. Tryed hanging up some CFLS and they wouldnt even cover half her height. Just stretched out nodes.

I am not the T5 Master. I should stuck with CFLs which I know very well.

Decided to let the FCJ do her thing and make some babies. I'll keep yall updated on that.

Hyroot, didnt you ask me the other day to look at your thread? I think you asked me to do something else too, but I was half asleep and don't remember what it said or where you posted it. lol

I don't remember either. I think I was giving you props on your grow. I just had to start using cfl's. Yours was the only one I could find that's as good as it is. I'm using mine vertically and par t5.

I remember. I did a tutorial using fresh aloe Vera gel for cloning. Using it as a cloning gel. Its free. I saw your cloning tutorial.

I saw the weird t5s in your grow thread. Are they LED T5s? cus a pic made em look red and blue.

A link to info on your lights would be cool.
