Also, I will be building a new cab (a little bigger considering the plants are expected to grow larger with nutes than the yard dirt mothers.)
A grow for science!!!! Yard dirt and tap water!!

Me either... Based off its hardyness, and ability to take abuse, it seems like the bagseed i used was the perfect strain for a grow like this. (The male/female ratio sucked though) im willing to bet that the clones will produce some serious dank with proper care. I honestly cant wait to toke on these ladys though... I feel like ive bonded with them more than i have any of my other grows, even though this one required the least work.

They can be used for both hydro and soil. They just get mixed with the water you use to water them.

No idea, but its impossible to tell just by looking a a plant. They are clearly indica dominate... Thats all ill ever know
sorry so long for response...and to those that were asking yes its a reveg and they are doing awesome...i got about 3 weeks left... they are starting to swell out now and have lots of crystals...a few smell pretty fruity.... and the others smell like a skunk sprayed somewhere!!! yum!!!!!

Gunna reveg em again after you chop?
No ... im one of them ppl that believe that a plant is only good for two years ....last year they had nice nugs when i grew em in the basement... this year should be nice nugs too... but im just going to pull em and dry em right befor the first frost... wich here in michigan should be around the 28 of sept- 11 of oct.... then i got some "larry" and "super skunk" i will start and veg till spring get em about 8 foot in my basement and then move them back out doors next spring.... i like to be able to pull around a pound per plant if i can... they seem to grow nice if i veg em for about four months then move em outside...

I wonder how many reveg harvests you can get off one plant without it dying.... Could you just keep the same plant producing buds every few months repeatedly?
Probably but i wouldnt recomend it as the reveg took 2 months under my 600w lights in the basement and then another month outside befor it started to even show any new growth... i personally wont do a reveg again because it took waaaay to long for the nugs left on the plant to reveg .... but when each of the little nug reveged they had 4 to 6 branches start out of each one and then when they reached about 7ft i started toping them... wich branched out even more... i am really suprised at how my plants grew.. its been a real learning experiment. ..and the only reason i tried a reveg is because alot of the growers and dispensaries around my area said it cant be done.... they were wrong obviously.... i just hope the nugs taste as good as they smell... u can smell them before u pull in my driveway and my house sits 300 ft off the road... they smelll really really good...and also i should mention when they were in the basement they didnt smell no where near as strong or have that many crystals on em.....
Well every person to there own..... as i said it was a learning experiment... and when u grow outside u have unlimited space and light so no problem there... and my plants grew better in the reveg outside than they did in the basement from seed.....

Update...
The two girls are doing well. I transplanted the one in the smallest pot to a new pot. Only filled halfway with more yard dirt (left from what i collected when i started the grow) and a few stones. I tied her down because she was too close to the light. As you can see, she is throwing lots of new hairs. Also starting to smell.
I didnt have anything to tie her down with so i used plastic wrap to make a string, poked a hole in the pot, and a hole in a bottle cap. I tied the string to the stem and ran it through the hole in the pot, and then through the bottle cap and tied a knot so it holds. Its easily adjustable, and i will probably use this method in the future but with hemp twine instead of saran wrap lol (she is the first two pics, and the last one)
The other girl has responded incredibly well to her training. I keep her down more as she grows. THe canopy is dense, and even. All the tops are throwing new hairs constantly, but underneath that there is none. Im considering cutting out everything below the canopy. Maybe try to clone the cuttings.
I believe they will be different phenos. The smell a bot different but its hard to tell because its not strong. The LSTd plant has thinner hairs, and rhe leaves are a bit darker, while the other plant has longer and thicker hairs.

Dont get me wrong, i like weed lol
Ive grown many times in the past and have often wondered what wpuld happen if i didn't follow anyones advice at first... What if i didnt adjust PH, what if i used tap water, what if i didnt use nutes.... Well so far i got two flowering plants (small but healthy) and have spent less than 50 bucks for every part of the grow.

Another thing i did was fill the pots half way. It doesn't dry out much due to lack of air flow so i drilled a few holes in the pot right above where the soil comes up to.
I also have no fan im the cab. Ill be putting one in soon though.
