yo, on monday im gonna put my cheesey babies into flower, however, one of the plants is lovin it too much and is bigger than the rest, its sorta smothering one of the others, they're in an nft system, just wondering if i can move a plant slighty or if that would fuck it cause of the roots.

the small plant in the pics is the one i my cfl fell on, it was a lucky fella, i thought he was a gonner for sure!

iv also tied round the bigger plant as you can see in one of the pics to keep it back, its not too tight and nothing is inhibited i dont think.

theres also a pic of my growdrobe!! bizzle :-)

any tips are really appreciated, nice one guys :leaf:

Hey Rusty looking good there and great recovery.

I've never tried NFT, I know how it stands for nutrient film technique but that's about it :dunce: lol, so I'm not exactly familiar with it, maybe someone else in here is.

The only tip I have is to cut some of that undergrowth to allow air to flow under better, it'll help prevent mold and possible pests/infestation.

Other than that dude, the plants are looking good and healthy. Nice, happy leaves reaching for light, keep up the great work.

i heard that nft was easy so i had a crack, then some bloke who'd been growin for years told me that it was the hardest type of hydro setup. to be honest its been a doddle, iv changed my reservoir every 5 days, i dont have an ec meter and i get by with a budget ph testing kit (not a stick).

cheers for the advice doob :-)

No problem on the advice Rusty, it was the least I could do being a soil grower lol.

This is my third grow. First one only gave me a headache, second one was dank. No seeds in either grow. My girls are from bagseed, soil grow. I started six beans and vegged with eight 26w cfls for five weeks. Then I moved the six over to flower under a 250w hps and two 20w 10.0 uvb fluro tubes. Within two weeks all showed sex, three male and three female. I discarded the males immediately as I have the last two grows. Now I've never seen a hermie but I imagine it has the pollen sacs of a male and the pistils of a female. This grow is full of seeds. Take a look and give me your opinions.The first pic shows seeds and at the bottom where I cut a seed out. The second and fourth pics show more seeds. The third shows the one that is purple and has less seeds. Can you tell me if any of these are hermies?

Welcome Altered, nice name by the way I played that game when I was a kid lol, can't remember if it was Nes, Snes, or Sega lol.

Definitely see some seed pods there, hard to tell from the pics if it's hermed or not, now how this happened....

There are a couple of things that can cause this.

1) There's a male plant close to your area within a 1 mile radius.

2) One of the pollen sacs on one of the males you took out burst and you didn't realize it.

3) If it is hermie it's going to be a genetic hermie because of the bagseed. So you won't see male parts on the outer parts of the bud, which happens more when you stress it out. If it's genetic you want to look for the male parts closer to the Meristem/Main Stalk, and more towards the middle of the buds, where they meet the stem. Genetic herm's and stress caused herm's grow out differently from what I've noticed.

Hope this helps.

Mhmmm that 3rd picture is soooo crystally and nummy looking. Hairs are finally turning, what's your trich's looking like?

==========================

Now for some pictures of mine lol. The first 2 are of an old crop's buds lol, felt outta place with all the nug pics being posted lol.

The ones in veg are the current grow, put my blackberry down for size comparison. The plant that is droopy on the right of the 2 plants not in ScroG needs to be watered, I know lol.

The white-ish spots are from the humidifier got a little lazy and well the little calcium deposits are the results no harm done though.

Let me know what you guys think, I think this SCRoG's gonna be huge by the time I actually flower it (Sometime in June due to move) lol. The black dom in Scrog has leaves about the size of my hand, just to give you more of a comparison.

Good deal on the trich's keep us updated dude, you're gettin' there.

Thanks for the bud pic compliments dude, much appreciated.

Lol my SCRoG isn't too much of a hassle honestly. I just let it grow, then train it and when I need to water I just water. Not too much of a hassle on upkeep really lol.

Doobieus Where did you get the metal screen at? It looks like a rubber coating on it? I want something just like that for my box just haven't seen any like that. I have looked at the Homedepot and lowes. Thanks

Thanks doob. Before I move my next batch to the flower room should I do a wipe down so I wont end up with seeds in them too? I'll get better pics up tonight in better light so maybe we can spot the hermie cause I have clones of all the girls that have seeds now. Would you let these seeded plants finish or should I chop them since I have some in veg that could be moved anytime now?
