Puff & LB, yall got me soupedup for the tents. Word to mother. Puff did you check out the timer yet?
Yea I did, looks really nice. I bookmarked the page. Thing is kick ass, I love the light sensor. Are you using one of these bad boys? I would buy one now, but i just bought an analog recyclers for $53 bucks at Wormsway. Turns out it was the last one they had in stock. I think I can live with an extension cord running across the room until I get my hands on a second one. They are just so pricey, but that is the first one that looks like your getting your moneys worth.

Well this is a grow journal, so i throw some pics up here for today.
Day 37?
Dam another male plant. The big one in the corner, Im 90% sure its a boy. I found some tiny balls where I was hoping to see white hairs. Figures it would be a male, it sure did grow tall enough in a month. Dam that means I got one lousy girl out of the 4 plants that had potential. The AF Haze x Skunk that I grew dont even count. They are the worst looking plants I have ever seen. THose were freebie seeds thrown into my order. They should have kept them, Ill never order from that seedbank again b/c of how horrible the freebie seeds look. Oh well, I still have the other tent that will hopefuly give me another girl to clone from. I would hate to think all this work with ordering seeds and I dont even end up using them over the bag seeds that were free.

I ordered from 4 different ones.
The only seeds that look like what I was expecting them to when they grew up a little was from Doc Chronic, and Dr. Greenthumb.
BC bud depot or something like that was the worst, then there was the place that sent the freebies that they should have paid me to take. WHat was the name of that place? I cant remember? Just stick with the Docs and you will be happy.

Thats a great idea, save your money. Get a strain of females going so if and when you take the plunge into some expensive seeds you will be able to tell what so good about them.

It pains me to have to do this. But the big monster plant is 100% male. I could tell it was a male more than a week ago. The preflowers are still so tiny, but I can clearly see the little balls forming now. I was hoping maybe I was wrong, but I wasn't. So I guess it going to get chopped down today. I see no reason to keep it. I already have the Endless Sky that turned out to be a male. That one is outside now in a safe place. I will go collect pollen from it in a few weeks when I decide to make my hybrids. Anyone know a good way to store pollen for long periods?
This kinda sucks now, all I have are a bunch of 6" clones and some two week old seedlings. The original mother for my females has stem rot and is currently being held up with a bamboo stake. That's why I ordered the recycling timer. I need to try and keep the medium a little bit dryer. I'm sure it didn't help that for the first 2 weeks I let the water drip system run 24/7. Now I'm paying the price. But this is a learning process and now I will know how to prevent that from occurring.

Sorry to hear Puff but Im telling you man you should use hydroton with your clones instead of rockwool. Rockwools a bitch with water retention & all of its PH fluctuations. Hydroton is just flat out better.

Shit, its a hermie! After closer examination it has hairs in few spots. I dont know why I couldnt see them. Well it is kind of hard getting into the tent to look at it. I still see a few spots that look like its going to be a male. But it is mostly female? I really need some bud to smoke and I would hate to kill this plant. Dam things were so much simpler when I thought it was a male. Ill throw in back in the oven for a while longer. Ill watch it develop, maybe Im jumping the gun, but im guessing its a hermie.
