I've got SEEDS!!! So somehow a small area of the grow got pollinated...just a few of the smaller lower buds in one bottom corner area...I really don't care...just means I'll have more of these amazing beans to plop down instead of dicking around with clones :D

The basement is smelling oh so fruity...I open the door and this aroma of sweet smelling deliciousness makes me start to drool...I had to cut a sample off to try it lol...gonna dry it for the next 3 hours and give it a go :D I'll report back tomorrow how it went :D

Right now I've got 3 clones and a seedling in the "veg" area under 148watts of CFL's waiting for my current crop to finish so I can put it in the flowering room :)

so we took another sample the next night as well...dried it...smoked it...it was niiiice....lasted about 2.5hrs...pretty heady, a little body...I enjoyed it greatly considering it was just lower buds that were not even remotely as frosty as the upper colas :D

I clipped off 2.4g worth, dried it down to .9g and we smoked about 1/2 of it...This is gonna be some killer shit once its all said and done :D

Though my entire house is starting to smell like the grow now...I REALLY need to get some sort of air filtration here soon...I walked into the house yesterday after being gone all day and man could I smell it :D

During my first couple of grows, when the temps got above 85, you could smell it down the driveway!!! And that's a good long way! I FINALLY broke down and bought a can filter. We don't usually have a lot of company, and the JH's kinda leave us alone 'cuz of the dogs, but ya just never know. Better safe than sorry. And then it wasn't even smell that got me :(

yeah we don't have much in the way of visitors...its not horrible or anything..its just distinctive...its exactly the same smell as I get when down in the basement...just fainter...I didn't get a chance to make a filter...hopefully this weekend.

all right then...got a chance to make it out to the hardware store...bought a carbon filter panel and slapped it on to the back of a 20" boxfan for the timebeing...also grabbed a new filter for my furnace and an air freshener panel that attaches to it to make the whole house smell wonderful :D

I haven't been away from the house for long enough since installing it all last night to see if there is a noticeable difference in the smell, but I imagine its probably pretty nullified at this point :D

Trichs are looking good...a few random ambers here and there but nothing much really...the oldest colas are about 50% cloudy at this point...the younger ones are about 20%...pistils are browning up nicely...calyxes are getting pretty swollen...I figure about another 1.5 weeks till chop...i'll get some new pictures up tomorrow.

The smell is down a bit since we spent the entire day gone I was able to tell a noticeable difference walking into the house tonight. I can still smell it, but its probably 75% less noticeable :D

A few of the colas are having issues staying upright at this point...hurray for packing on the weight :D

Did my daily morning check and had to raise the lights again. I raised them 2 days ago as well. Getting some pretty explosive growth from the 4 older plants on the left side of the bed. I also increased the PPM of their feeding this morning to 750. I've been alternating clean water and 350-400ppm for the last 2 weeks. I still give the smaller seedlings just straight water, but I imagine some of the other neuts will leach around a bit and get to them.

Also I could finally notice a few small white hairs! Definitely have at least 2 females :D, but I NEED at least 1 male...if i dont get at least 1 male out of 9 plants I'll start screwing with the light schedule to force a hermi lol :D

so you put them on 12/12 right out the gate, im confused, how do you see hairs already if you just started growing them?
also, are you just planning on a shrt veg/bloom? bc my only concern is if you have 9 plants growing, once they get a decent size, that container that you have them growing in will be way to small, all the roots will be fighting for nutes and room to grow and stretch out, i would think that would limit the overall size of your plants. also, ive had issues in the past before from staying TOO wet, if water sits in the bottom of that container and never really dries, you might begin to have problems

DAMNN nice plants man. I think you should flip the lights to 12/12 to help them alogn with the flowering. You said its an Auto/early flowering plant from seed. Im pretty sure they are ment to be grown 12/12 from seed, but i could be wrong. But you need to slow down that veg growth, and the only solution i see is go 12/12. LOOKING GREAT BRO!

yea bro, these things are gonna double in size once they are in full flower, if your worried about height now, your gonna be in a world of hurtin in 4 more weeks into bloom

What you talking about Willis? :D

Grow is almost done...I trimmed down the 9 plants to 5 and its been going great...the container has a shitton of holes drilled in the bottom and a layer of crushed rock in the bottom for added drainage capabilities and has plenty of space for the root systems and the soil mixture I use doesn't allow the root system to "stay wet"...I have to water every 2 days :) I am using 5gallon buckets though for the 3 clones + 1 new plant that will be going in the flowering area after harvest...I will be topping them and LST'ing them here soon to have em bush out a bit :)

I vegged for about 35-40 days...and i'm about 8 weeks into flowering now....got about 1.5 weeks left :D I had some hermi go on and there is a small section of the grow that is seeded, which is what I wanted to gather more seeds :D
