so i've got pics on the way...till then a quick update: all plants are freaking amazing and loving the 2x400w HPS lights. One slight issue is that they may have gotten too much nitrogen and are pretty dark green. Other than that though they look beautiful.

The canopy height is almost identical on all three plants, standing at around 4.5 - 4.8 ft high! They all smell and look distinct from one another. The Blueberry is doing amazing, the Church has bud sites ALL OVER!! and the Orange Bud is still stretched a bit but its stems are turning golden which looks promising.

Most importantly, all three plants have some gorgeous white hairs poking out all over...

ill continue updating later..

Sounds like a great start. Keep us informed as you go and dont forget the smoke report at the end.

sorry for no pics but just haven't found time to take them....anyways BAD news....the Church is a herm, no idea why since it didn't really have much stress at all (unless there's some light leak i don't know about). Could high humidity for a day or two cause it to herm? I'm going to shop around and see if I can find Dutch Master Reverse & Penetrator but I have a feeling I won't. Everything is impossible to find where I live. Oh well I guess worst case will be seedy buds :( I'll keep you guys updated.

sorry for that news, but don't abandon hope
in a pinch, you can try to snip them off by hand
and they may not be fertile, or so i read

some more good news....the Church is 100% male! i already took it out and letting it dry out now by the window so i can fit it into the garbage bags a little easier. any hairs I thought it had disappeared and turned into pollen sacks. luckily they hadn't opened yet and the other two are still looking bomb.

:( fucking GHS seeds....99.9% feminized! HAHA i got the 0.1% male, i guess i should go play the lottery too. lol

there are plenty of GHS fans, and their history is epic
but i see stuff like this more and more often, i'd be wary of running GHS gear
99.9%? sounds like regular seeds to me, i wouldn't buy that i just won the 0.1% lottery

either attitude seed bank lied/fucked up or i really did just win the 0.1% lottery! their giveaway was free feminized church seed and the label on the bag it was in said feminized. anyways doesn't matter, down to two plants now and pretty fucking disappointed cause that'll be a couple oz less and still spending the same on electric :(

i don't doubt it was feminized, just probably not the best breeder doing it
i think GHS is in disarray, their premier breeder(can't recall name) seems to have gone on to other things
but a freebie going male, not the end of the world
call it a cheap lesson on seed labels
some do swear by GHS, with a lot of breeders not all strains are equal, or feminization skills

dutch passion's seeds so far look great so we'll see how it turns out and possibly next run i'll get some different strains like skywalker and i also want to try mandela's hashberry

3 weeks into flowering!

and these are from today...now with 2 x 400w HPS AND 1 x 400w MH for a grand total of 1200 watts on 2 big ass plants...each measures about 6ft or more at the moment. sorry if some of the pics are blurry but my phone cam is hard to focus with.

the Orange bud is on the left (closer to the multi color blanket) and the right one is Blueberry

well, they both look good, the last pic is pretty good pic in my opinion
is the blueberry the one in the foreground in the last pic?
either way, your blueberry is looking fine
toss in an odor report next time if there are some nice smells going

ya thats the BB in the foreground. no smell at all....when i walk in the room there's no odor. it used to stink while it was in veg. but i'm not sure if that's because of the Church or what....if i rub the stems they each have a very particular smell. the OB smells like soap, not sure how to describe the BB yet.

love the smell report, you never know what may pop out
soap? that is pretty cool, it's a sign of things to come
when i think of a soap odor, i think of lavender, there's a bit of wishful thinking for you

looks great especially for the first time man! i do have a bit of advice for you though. your containers look like they let a little bit of light in. i'm a right about that? if not don't worry about it but if so you should paint them black or get some black duck brand tape. you cant find it for like 3 bucks at walmart. keeping the light out will increase root growth and that will directly increase yield capacity. another bit of advice that i didn't see anyone give you is that when your seeds first pop, it is much better to use flouros than HIDs. they put out much less heat, use less energy, and are cheap. tubes or cfl's both work as the newborns don't need to much light.

other than those things it all looks great. hope to see the end results.
