Alright guys, I am a week into flower and its looking like I have a really high male to female ratio from my latest seed run. I have read poor environments can influence plants into becoming male ?

So, my veg tent was slightly warmer by a couple of degrees to normal and I was a week or two behind potting up due to drying in my flower tent. Could these factor into me getting more males ?

Not pissed off just curious. Have my main plants in flower and the seeds are just to sex and for tasters.

Any info much appreciated

Seems like an ongoing debate. Some people claim environment determines sex , although I am not sure any actual scientific evidence backs the claims up. There is a reason that MJ has remained a dioecious plant and I would doubt nature would engineer it in a way that if it's a certain temperature all the seeds will be female. That could have drastic consequences for the species in nature. Just my 2 cents from logical thinking.

Thanks for the info D, makes sense. I am looking at possibly 7 males out of 9 seeds, just seemed a high ratio to anything I have run before.

goodmorning 600

just thought id stop in to wish everyone a good day

i just changed the bulb on my 600 for the new girls that just got flipped :)

time to sit back and watch them take off and keep building on the veg stable in the mean time

they are in 7 gallon pots 50% Super Soil on most strains that gave me killer results with ghost og and mendo breath with the supplement of a few ACTs

so lets see how Animal Cookie, Big E, Black Lime Reserve, and Blueberry Cookie hold up the canopy temps about 75 humidity is at 35 to 40%

nearly ideal for my poor mans setup in the 4x4 lol

now back to breakfast a couple IPAs and some heady nuggets haha

So the Principal Broker ( dumb ass that missed court ) came by to talk with me before he refiled. He was much more personable than the P.M. that i spoke with before. Anyway the long and short of our conversation was we will be out by the end of the month like we had requested the first time i went in to talk to them. This at least gives us the time to get everything sorted and moved. Plus the way it is working out i still wont ever have had an eviction. I could stay and fight them still but then i could still end up showing being evicted. Anyway i just am hopeful we find land and make the mid march ground braking we need to get the greenhouse in next year.

Hey 600,

Any reasonably priced tips for keeping res temperatures down, and consistent, without too much maintenance(read: something I can just plug in or 'fill/address' daily and forget?)

Bottle of frozen water an swap a few times a day keeps mine between 19 and 22c

Only 30ltr res like
Yeah, that's essentially what I do, when I can, now. I freeze RO water in ice cream containers and tip them in to the tank when topping up. I was looking for something more automated as I sometimes work long hours and by the time I get back to the res it's temperature is already up near 30C before I can start to bring it down. My res is 50L and two tubs of ice can knock 5 or so degree off, and on days when I'm home I can drop them in throughout the day to keep it lower... would love something that could manage it when I cannot

The prices of chillers Is far to much,
It seems ok in flower and it being winter maybe 1 in a day but veg was swapping 3 or 4 times a day

Here's what I did. Split the Rez area from the grow area, using panda film. Makes it a different space. I pulled air into the grow space through an inlet in the Rez space. The cool air coming in would enter the Rez area first, and I would keep a fan blowing strait at the side of the Rez next to he intake, blowing cold air on the Rez. Like holding a can of soda out the car window to get cold. The big part was the separation though. Even if you don't have light hitting the Rez, if it's the same airspace as the grow and lights, the air around the tank will be warm and heat it up over time.

Ii next time round should see a few tweeks in my tubes
A net and 10" gap between top of tubes and net.

Also will have the res covered direct from under tubes and maybe try jigs idea with the intake coming right next to res before rising to the extraction
