Hi Guys,

First time poster over across the pond here in Ireland and I've had a Blue Cheese on the go since late March/Early April. Now two weeks ago I could have swore I saw to pistils pertruding at the 4th node, I fondled it a bit in my excitement and I didn't say any other signs since. I'm 99% this was pistil. Recently I've had a sinking feeling and today it was kind of confirmed :(

Can anyone let me know definitely if these are male pollen sacs or if they are swolen Calyx or just new growth? I haven't seen any clusters which is somewhat reassuring but still, these very much look like sacs of shit!

What's worrying is I've given 4 healthy clones to my friend to finish off indoors so I want to be able to tell him the bad news asap if there's any to report. Oddly, I've only noticed these bulging parts in the upper most areas, there's still no solid sign of sex at any of the lower nodes where what I thought was a flower before. Would greatly appreciate any insight!

Thanks

So it would appear I've got a certified Hermi on my hands! it's a funny Hermi though, the top half appears to be all balls but everything below is all female! I'll keep cousin it going as it's the only one in the garden, I've been on ball controll duty and so far so good. I'm curious though about my clones, theoretically, if it persists with top half male/bottom half female would I conceivable by able to top all male areas and let the bottom half recover and carry on? Sure my yield would be most likely be more than halved but perhaps something worth considering?

Bunch of quiet fuckers today :D I soent all of yesterday at the bowling alley with some friends getting stoned and blind drunk, won the first game then it all went downhill from there, it was a toss up between acuracy and power and well, power.... roar. Then got home and had lots more beer, still got myself up at 5 though :) the routine is getting easier. No footy for me though :D My mate keeps trying to convince me to come out and go fishing...behind the fire station. what the hell, where's a real river when you need one, not a damn pond, although fdd and his new boat have been tempting me ever so much :D

Courtesy of my withdrawal from tobacco, looks like Canada might be back on the map for July, should be able to put together the money in a month or two :) And figure i'll just take my knowledge of this and that over there with me and well, bi-winning? :) wheeeee

ttt, my mate did a gap year in canada this past season and he could vouch for it all day long, said the people are so cool, the weed is awesome and the mountains are a really awesome place to live.

funny story, he went out to a party at an abandoned house and got blind drunk, got caught by the police stumbling down the road with a bottle of whisky and 6 joints in his pocket, the policeman gave him a lift home and said he shouldve arrested him for drinking in the street (they're really damn strict on drinking) and ended up going to his place and smoking one with him haha.

im a dcorator to trade but i more or less gave it up about 4 years ago because i began to loathe the fuckin work, i enjoy doing a room or two theses days just to keep my skills sharp but i had to move everything because im laying a new carpet and ive got a new 3 piece suite comin. so my large bookcases, existing suite, fucking fish tank and everything needed moved. im bloody sore now as a result. looking forward to a nice big dinner(1.5 lb salmon steak, mmmmm) then a bath with maybe a joint just to knock me out.

just finished reading Junky by William Burroughs, excellent book
god, it must be about 15 years since i read that book! i'd forgotten all about it, bloody good book as i recall, good insights and it makes u re-evaluate a lot of modern attitudes towards drug use.
