Thanks!
I thought the Chem #4 was sold out...guess he made more.
Let us know how it turns out.

As of last night these babies made the switch to 12/12. I will try to get some pictures up tonight....eagerly awaiting the results!

Here are a couple pics from the untopped plant (plant #3) not much to show yet but I wanted to show the progress. All the plants are about 24 inches or so tall.

Pictures from plant #1, topped at the second node. You can see the two branches where 2 main colas will be produced. If I would have topped them a bit sooner and tied down the top two branches, the lower 2 would have grown at the smae rate and I would have had 4 main colas.

I've also included a couple shots of a C-99 at day 37 of 12/12, topped the same way. You can see the 2 tops filling up.

How tall were they when you placed them on 12/12 or did you just do that recently? If so, I imagine your SourD will end up at 5' tall or so? I wish I had that much height to play with as far as plant height. Looking great by the way

Thanks Mr T!

Im lucky to have about 6.5 feet to work with as far as height goes. I switched them about 4 days ago and they have put on a few inches in that time.

Dr. G

They are lookin good! How is the smell coming man? I called him about 9 days ago today might get luckey today, I'll keep my fingers crossed. I told him I would rep him to the fullest so when I get the beans I will keep you posted. I also ordered the Cali Connection Deadhead and Tahoe OG 10 days ago from ATTITUDE and got them earlier in the week and they already popped the soil this morning I let you know how those go also. BY THE WAY +rep for ya man. Keep me updated!!!

Thanks So Hi,
So far very little smell but I can tell they are going to stink the place up because they already smell more then the Cindy99 did. It will be interesting to see the Calli seeds going side by side with the Docs stuff. Cant wait to see your grow, please send me a link when and if you start a thread.

Peace-Dg

Take Care So Hi and keep me informed.....
Peace-DG

Okay,
Heres whats been going on the last few days in my veg room. I've been running a 250 MH for my seedlings and clones and it tripped the breaker the other day. When I turned it back on the light glows but wont fire back up at all. So i grabbed my spare t5 fixture and hung it in place of the 250, when I checked on it in the morning it had burned out as well and it's not an old light. So now I have a little 125 watt Cfl going to keep them plants awake.

The good news is I called the light company and they are shipping me out a replacement soon, should be here by Wednesday at the latest.
The problem is I dont have any idea how long the light was out both times, could two 12 hr dark periods start the flower cycle? I think so...hope they werent out that long.

Man dude that sucks it's always something, have you ever tried a hps for your veg I think they work so much better keeps your sets closer like your t5's will do.

No never have tried an hps for veg....might have to consider that in the future.

Son of bitch, the new light showed up and it doesnt work ...This Doctor prescribes himself a big fat bowl of Cindy 99 followed up with a Columbian Skies chaser in the vape.

It is my considered opinion that you should do the same. Do you concur?

Greetings,
Problems have arose in the flower room. I've been building a new set of rooms for my grow operation and havent been paying enough attention to the state of my current home made grow tent. I think with all the building, hammering, drilling and such I may have rattled the seems apart on my tent and I have small light leaks.
Now, how did I notice this you ask; well let me tell you.
I was looking over my Sour diesel plants and noticed male flowers on two out of 3 plants and picked them all off.
It made me wonder what caused them and light leaks came to mind, so I started looking at the top of my tent and right out in the open are two split seams. I waited until lights went off and sure enough there were small light leaks.

I know stress can cause hermies so I started thinking about possible stress factors other then the light leaks and the only thing that comes to mind is that I put them into flower before they had showed pre flowers. I know many people say it shouldnt matter but according to Jorge Cervantes putting them into flower before pre-flowes can cause hermies.

So far the clones look fine and the 3rd plant hasnt shown any male pre-flowers. I hope that since I pulled off all the male pre flowers I should be okay as long as they dont return. I kind of feel like I let Dr Greenthumb and all of you down a bit by being too caught up in building the new room. So my apologies to all if these dont work out. My gut feeling is they will be ok and the clones should be fine also.

Any advice or comments are welcome.

Today is day 18 of flower, ive included pictures from day 15.

Anybody have an idea whats causing this?

looks like you are over fertilizing and maybe some heat issues to. Or you have ph issues which can cause the same symptoms.
