Alright, I've topped all of the plants as well. I've had a theory for awhile now that if you top a plant, but remove one of the growing tips it will promote the growth of "donkey dick" buds as the root structure is strong and the plant is more mature so a shorter plant can produce a top cola...

Alright, I've decided to go ahead and try this on my current FI grow. I have 8 plants in veg that haven't shown male sex yet. There were originally 10 and 2 of them have shown balls as preflowers so I've gotten rid of them. About 10 minutes ago I topped all of my plants and kept the tops as...

I have a feeling it's going to be the case also. So it's really going to depend on how fast these in veg grow and how fast the clones root. Clones take an average about 14 days to root for me, sometimes as little as 7, sometimes as long as 21 or even longer, but usually somewhere between...

Okay, I identified each of the 9 remaining plants and took 2 clones from each. Each clone was marked with it's donor and I will continue to veg my plants. I am going to flush the reservoir again tomorrow and refill with veg nutes and setup for at least another week of veg, some of the plants...

I killed the most obvious one. It didn't have a prayer of being a female, and it was just a straight up dude. I only have 1 other that is looking like a male already, the others like I said either look female or no sex showing yet. These plants have a onen week gap in their developement which...

These plants are on 18/6 light schedule so I doubt they will open, but I'm going to go ahead and pull them from the room, I don't think they can possibly be females at this point...Pretty obvious call to me, just surprising...this strain is seeming to be pretty fucking incredible....crazy shit...

As promised. The first pictures are of the plants a couple hours after the lights came on, the others are close ups of the plants causing me the concern. I believe there's 3 of 8 that look like this and the others have female preflowers or nothing showing.

The MH for 1 week of flower won't have any ill effect. Before the HPS came around that's the way it was done. You will get less stretching and it doesn't put out as many lumens, but it won't hurt the plants in any way. Some people go 12/12 from seed so you can certainly flip the lights to...

Daily....I'll take pics when the lights come back on and you'll see the difference. It's a daily droopage and it does seem to be around the light schedule. I know it's normal behavior, just seems so dramatic, but I'm gonna let it go, all else seems well. I can take a close up when they...

You don't need a fan in the tent in the way that I believe you are doing it. You need to get yourself a REAL fan and hook it up to cool your light and your tent and your temps will drop freakin' 20 degrees. You didn't specify the size of the tent or type of lighting so it's hard to judge what...

On another note I believe I'm starting to see some preflowers on a few of the plants...I think I've already spotted a male, but I'm not ready to kill it off just yet. I'm debating if I should clone them to determine sex or just flower them and remove the males and leave 2 clones of each behind...

I forgot to take non-droopy pics, but I just put some up the other day so you should get the idea...here's some pictures about 2 hours before lights out. So the lights are still on, but the day is coming to an end for them.

Thanks for the words of encouragement, I've definitely seen that before. This is EXTREME and was just causing me some worry, but I feel confident everything is in order and this plant goes through it very dramatically (probably just due to it's really broad leaves). I'll take a picture right...

I'm going to try this out on my next grow. It's about maintaining one dominant bud on a more mature plant with a large root structure but not a lot of side buds. This FI I'm growing doesn't look to be a "donkey dick" candidate. I just don't think it grows that way. I'll try to find...

54w T5HO's don't put out "little heat", they put out about as much heat as at least a 400w HPS. They just distribute that heat across the surface area of the bulbs. The inability to air cool a T5HO light actually makes it kind of a pain in the ass to keep them cool. They don't burn the...

I could've sworn I was reading a thread about Advanced Nutrients. Why get heated about where people get their beans? And don't listen to the donks that talk about clones being the only option, I live in SoCal and the bastardized clone market here isn't THAT fantastic. I still order beans to...

Really depends on what he's asking for all of it. Sounds a bit pricey and not worth it to me. My entire hydro setups generally cost less than $200/piece and then I just need lights and fans. 600w lights and fans w/ reflectors cost me about $550/ea so a total of $750 or so for a setup that can...

Ah, very nice. And that DP WW sure loves to grow into nice Donkey Dicks.

Overall I was very impressed with White Widow. The buds were hard as a rock, crystally and strong, and of course gigantic. I'm pretty stoked about Fucking Incredible too! The veg here is taking too long already and I'm ready to get these things into flower, but patience is the key!

If your DP BB is feminized watch for hermies....the DP BB has a history of that problem, but should be an amazing strain. If you got the beans, give the G13 labs WW a try. I might try a couple of different WW's at some point, but right now I'm into some other strains.
