Blue Ballz day 44 since flip. I wanted to let her grow naturally from seed and just take a few lowers as clones, but she was planning an escape through the top of my tent. I had to pinch and train the main and a few other branches later into flower than I would have liked but she responded well. Very resilient, easy to train, and clones all took. Small but dense flowers, with a nostalgic GDP scent. I left a lot of the lower buds so I will probably harvest some of the top first and let the bottom ones ripen a bit.

I'm looking forward to doing a full tent of this now that I know what to expect.

Update on Dancing Limes...
Dancing Lime #1 and #2, I threw into flowering as soon as they sprouted. Well the first two to sprout are males. I have 3 other Dancing Limes in veg that I sent out for DNA Sex Testing. Its my first time using this kind of service. As soon as I get the results I will post an update.

Ok so since I been on a very long break from growing a lot of things have changed...one thing I tried for the first time was Sex DNA Testing for plants. The company I used was Leaf Works they are in California. It cost $15 per plant test and $6 for shipping so a total of $51. They sent me the kits its very simple and easy to do. Now I got the test results emailed to me on 27th of March and I purchased the kit on the 18th of March. So 9 total days for me to get the kit, send the samples off and get the results is pretty quick in my opinion. So my Dancing Limes #1 and #2 were males(flowered for sex) now Dancing Limes #3, #4 are females(sex tested) and #5 is a male(sex tested). So overall 2 of 5 females! I dont mind spending the money on this service cause you can test them as early as you can cut a piece of leaf off. Now if I get different results from what they gave me I will obviously be bummed but if it works out I will be using their services again.

Here is the entire kit they mail
