subbed, i like the progress of your grow so far, your tent is Very clean -approves
that's bad news, laser!but not the worst of news. were these feminized seeds?
so, from what i hear, most breeders use coloidal silver method, then breed back to a non stressed regular female to reduce the hermaphrodite tendency, however, the trait can still be carried over. would you say this is most likely a hermie trait from a femenized seed? and the plan of action is to prune the nanners as you see 'em and finish out the grow?
Yeah, doing more reasearch on LED's I just don't think that I am there yet. The cost is still too high and I can't help but to feel like in 2 years, they'll be 25% of what they are now. All I hear about is how everybody knows somebody that can acquire the LED's and they just need to make a panel, blah, blah, blah. I tell you now, the china man comith....haha.
So far the nanner search hasn't been terribly taxing. I wish I had noticed earlier or started searching immediately but the last time I grew this strain I didn't have any heremies. I hate looking around seeing all those seeds developing, but it ain't that big of a deal. I do have one that I wish I had cloned. It's a beast, it's already frosty, been the healthiest of the bunch and no signs of hermies on her. Too bad.
electric bills in the summer are already $500+
I considered it, but I can't figure out a good way to do outdoors. My neighborhood has kids and a school somewhat nearby, it's not something I really want to get into. Security is a huge concern outdoors, much better indoors. I can't grow with flouro's, end up using more energy to create less bud then it's worth for me. When it gets more expensive per watt to grow I don't want to be using the watts less efficiently.
LED's have my attention, but just too costly. Fortunately it's not in the too distant future that they will be a reasonable price and the solution will finally be here.
