Ok here are the pics & update

I have 5 definate girls in the HPS room & 1 more im 80% sure is also a girl, so hopefully 6 girls :blsmoke:

2 males were destroyed and the CFL male and 1 of the HPS males are now in another location being tortured ha ha, im experimenting with them trying to learn how to clone and i have also topped the CFL male, might use them to pollinate 1 of the girls for seeds ect.. also as soon as they are about ready to release there pollen, i have someone else who will water, feeds & raise the light, as im not risking getting pollen on me and pollinating my 7 girls.

Notice the diference between pics 8 & 9 the HPS are about the same size as the CFL'S but alot more bushier & the leaves are alot fatter (hard to see through them to determin sex)

The solo CFL grow is doing good but there is a big diference, not as much growth as the HPS girls, but is a week behind the rest, so may improve as time passes.

Picture order..

First 6 are the HPS 6 girls
Next 3 are the two males (1 HPS & the other the CFL one)
Last 3 are the solo CFL girl

:peace:

Also picture 9 (the HPS male was taken pre feeding and was drooping a bit) & sorry about the picture quality as it would of taken half the day to upload with my good cammera.

alreet baz! good ration of females to males and if your going to save the pollen then its not a total waste! deffo a good idea to not even keep the male in the same house, pollen is a bitch, i don't even like to go in my tent after visiting a mates grow just incase, always change clothes, its like the mary jane equivalent to an STD lol

just out of interest why the solo CFL girl? you doing a cfl to hps comparison or is it for space reasons???

PS keep up the good grwing dude:bigjoint:

Correction... 5 males (2 destroyed 3 in the other location) 6 girls..

lol@don with the std shit ha ha! after moving to HPS, i had all the cfl stuff & my old room sat doing nothing, so i thought i would have a little experiment lol, i ideally wanted to use my cfl shit n room to veg, but other party wanted to throw it all under the new HPS shit lol

So i thought id see the outcome, yield ect..

im in the same boat bazza im moving house soon, then getting straight onto a mother and cloning even if im just giving the clones to mates, im going to pick a couple of nice strains and rotate every 3rd or 4th grow with a new strain.

shame you lost another girl man but chin up its more space fore the 6 remaining, silver linings and all that!!

cloneing is really simple baz.. just like growing a plant after you do it a couple times its a breeze.... you could just take a cutting dip it in water, rooting powder and back into a glass of water or into a seed starting medium put a dome over it keep it warm and its simple just wait until it starts growing again and your on your way to having nothing but bitches they will prolly finish a a week or so quicker because they will be old enuff and not have to go through preflower they take on the age of the mother so if the mother is 3 moths old so are the clones so when you put em on 12/12 they are already showing sex and will not streatch as much but still will the first few weeks but its all around better less wasted space and energy on growing males

Yea bud, i have plenty of space but not enough HPS light to accomidate the space, so it will prob be best with what i have left, was planning on 4 weeks veg but might leave it 5 weeks.

I have actually took a few cuttings from the male plants to experiment with, they are in glasses of water with clingfilm over the top, i dipped them in rooting hormone before inserting them into a little slice in the film, seen it somewere on another thread, not sure if i cut at the correct place tho..

How long does it usualy take before roots show?

They been in there for 3 days now.

Around 2 weeks baz should be cool to knit, get a prop you cant go wrong with them, B&Q £15 upwards always good to keep them humid just google it plenty info to be found mate, piss easy.

5-10 days till lil roots show if you keep things warm it can root as fast as two days:) also after cutting thr 45 degree on the bottom get it wet again and slice down the last inch or 2 cm just break the skin the plant sends energy to the lil slices and produce roots also make sure you dont have to much foliage:)
