i have been lusting for a Cali-O femme for a while
2 prior grows, 2 males, Nirvana reg seeds, can't be faulted at this point
i did milk the guys for their pollen, Cali-O crosses are waiting
sooner or later some Cali-O genetics will be consumed, i would prefer it to be this grow
seedling at 10 days, micro setup(78w), but has served me well in other grows

at 17 days of vegging, no problems, not huge
but not tiny, 5 nodes is my flower trigger, and flower it will
but female flowers, that is the question

3 weeks of veg, very similar to my routine
when things go well for me, i get at least an oz of dry bud, and that's with 78w of cfl's
so you should get at least an oz, hopefully closer to 2, could be more
the genetics have a huge influence, among a lot of other factors
probably another 5 weeks of flower(or so), but again this will vary a lot on genetics

about 10 days down in the flower chamber no balls visible, perhaps the 1st cali-o femme?
but i have learned, shut your mouth until you know for sure
1 thing is different, this plant has smell, the males i had didn't
kind of on the skunky side, but won't complain if it's a femme

the 2 week flowering boundary has been crossed, and it has been a good crossing
my 1st cali-o female, the 1st 2 seeds were males, but with reg seeds, you get what you get
smeeling plenty of skunk, not much orange, but smell seems to be changing, strong smelling plant
that makes a 2 for 4 ratio on nirvana seeds for females, can't complain about that
not too mention the cali-o seed crosses i got waiting, nl#5 x cali-o and PPP x cali-o

nice bro! good looking plant...

i m in 46 days of flowering... but i have to chop it in 13 days... so 60 days of flowering plus 3 weeks vegging... i think right now has almost an oz on it...

how much more do you think it will get in the last two weeks?

(look some posts ago to see my specifications)

thanks man... i think i will veg again for only 3 weeks... i think my first grow is succesfull despite the little vegging...

60 days is early for most plants, but sometimes you got to do what you got to
the last 2 weeks will pack on plenty of bud/weight, could be close to double what you have now

i know it s early man :( but i have to move from this house...

i think it would need 9-10 weeks to finish... so 6-5-8.5 weeks are not its actual last weeks... so there will be not such growth eh?

you should get good smoke for your trouble, just not quite as good as if you had the extra week or 2
and you should get a lot of bud growth in your last 2 weeks, but every plant has its quirks

another cali-o fan, knew they were out there
glad to have you watching, i'm very hopeful on cali-o quality, but that's just hope, haven't had the pleasure of puffing any yet

thanks for looks and subs, things seem to be good at the moment
i knew i had a female, but you gotta love the moment it becomes obvious
so i'm giving thanks that i've got a cali-o femme this time
a skunk odor that seems to be changing to something else
can't put my finger on what just yet, not oranges so far, but i'll keep hoping

the 4th week of flower, getting to be a reasonable looking plant
some loss of color in the fans, mi8ght have underfed a little
but i'm more of an under feeder than over, better quality(imho)
still plenty of skunk smell

5 weeks of flower, bulking up nicely(for 78w of cfl's)
loosing color in the fan leaves, that could on the early side
the skunk odor is fading with the leaves, and a new odor is building
4 more weeks(probably) is plenty of time for the hoped for fragrance

thank you troutie, camera doesn't do her justice, get that better camera someday
but back to the show, the 6 week mark has arrived, not bad, bulking is happening
interesting plant whose smelliest phase was the veg
lower odor as the flower goes on, may have to wait until the end to judge the scent properly
not to mention the taste
