I don't know what you mean by that, but if you mean that they can find out who i am, i'm not much concerned about it. I know i blanked out my face, but that is only for people i might know in RL.

I also have some in a swamp but this year has brought lots of water and I have had to imprivise. I had to build a platform big and strong enough to hold a 50 g pot and 8+ foot plant. Not ideal conditions for easy access. But they are flourishing. Good luck with yours and stay dry. Lol

Before I got smart and figured out I needed to raise them I had to save them several times from drowning. I mean laying on their sides under water. Freaked me out but they survived. Well at least the ones that didnt get broken in half.

juans 6,18,09.jpgjuans 7,15,09 5.jpg7,19,09 (5).jpgthe mud and water is 2 ft deep under the tables so when sexing my early strains we use the tables until the swamp dries out in late july then straight to the barrells.

Wow that is a lot of plants. We must live in completely different climates because my swamp is dry Nov-Feb and the rest of the time is under water. How many of those turned out to be female?

i'm in new england and the female /male ratio was 65-70 % female . i usualy have 5-6 spots like this every season . i get a high ratio of females due to no stress or less stress from water drowning etc. plus slugs don't swim well and rabbits can't reach them !!

That is a great ratio. And with 6 spots damn thats a lot of weed! Do you breed your own seeds? What strains do you grow? Currently I have a PE and SBA. I was experimenting with autos all this year so I only planted a few photos. Lost a few to the rough weather here. Dirty South!

Fill me in .. What is the benefit of growing in a swamp on a platform .. I would think the humidity would be high and more threat of mold ??

Yes the humidity is a bit higher but I havent had a priblem with mold especially with a sativa dom strain. Police and rippers dont go search thru swamps unless they already know where a plot is.

Well after 6 months of work on this SBA I have seeds forming. Im not quite sure how this is happening since I cannot find any male flowers anywhere. I highly doubt anyone is growing anywhere near me to have a male polinate mine. Seriously disapointed!!!

I forgot to mention that this plant has been seriously stressed a few times. I have heard that a female plant may pop out a few as a servival but... Not on every bud right? This has never happened to me before so I dont know much about it.
