So the plants are looking great but could be slightly greater. I have checked the forums and found my leaf problem to be nearly certain a mag def. After looking at many pics my plants resemble those to a t. With the same symptoms happening in the same order in the same spots. I will try foliar spray first with epsom salts as most plants are hardly affected. I just want them perfect. They seem to be showing no signs of sex today yet but it seems to me by the look of the new groth that i have many females. Also the late showing of any preflowers leads me to believe this. They claim males at 17 days and females at 20 on the back of the packaging. Mine are 16 days today and are seeming to have started a second growth spurt since changing res. Seems with thes plants that they enjoy fresh water and medium to reg strength nutes changed out often. They also seem to show stress when they lose micronutrients which makes sense as their growth slows after several days in the same res water.

Nope, took care of that with an airwick freshmatic. It has the odour absorbing can in it apperently. It actually works amazing. It doesn't smell like i'm spraying air freshener all he time but doesn't smell like bud either. Its working well. If you got smell try 1. And the refills aren't the same price as the whole new unit for once. there cheap. I think i'll take some pics and post. be right back

So here they all are. 13 i guess. I think i got carried away with the sheers. Also the new expectation is like 3 ounces dry off the hempstars because the biggest one already snapped and has now slowed. Can't believe it snapped from the bud already. But overall there looks to be many spots that will dry to five grams. the lr2 are getting huge. they should for a nice single bud now that they're starting to touch eachother. Hopefully the runt becomes a male and is only used to pollinate.

Damn those lr2's look like theyll yield huge. I think with all females in there and squeeze 16 in i could get 1 gram per watt off this. If these bud like some pics i've seen than i could get an ounce each. And to me they look like some happy lowryders. They look like they could get huge

They have a lot of potential thats for sure! Nice smell prevention idea, I would cover my smell to but my family doesnt care that I grow, Lucky me! It would be nice to get an ounce off of each, keep postin, good luck.

My moms not stupid. But i cover it because my mom has older friends over sometimes and i don't need them discussing it. In my city even though everyone does it you will be robbed in 1 second if you tell anyone. Our economy here is 100% auto and has collapsed. The crime has gotten out of control

Yah i hope to get that next time. this time i need he seeds witch kinda sucks. Once i get 16 in there if i can get it down i should be able to get 1 ounce per plant i think. seems reasonable to me in hydro. They seem to be pretty dense and they are actually growing bushier than most plants i've grown. Don't want to jinx myself but you can kinda look at a plants shape before it starts budding and kinda estimate what it could produce. Very roughly.

Its hard not to look at a plant and guess about what its going to weigh, then drool over the thought in your head. You will perfect this quickly 1982grower, dont sweat it.

4 ounces? depending on female to male ratio i expect more than that. With 16 plants in there i'm thinking 16 ounces off of all females. If the strain is capable of it i will figure it out. maybe this seed crop will yield only 4 but i'm still expecting more. Ive grown a bunch of times and if these bud the same as even normal yielding weed but on a smaller scale i should be able to pull an ounce off each dry. More like second grow though. when i see what i get from one plant than that can give me an idea at least. But i do think i'll get more than 4 ounces if i get 6 females. keep checking back and we'll find out. i don't really know. i've heard lr are weak yielders but then see some pics like amcs popcan pic. even though its tiny the yield is amazing. If he get half ounce dry off that it'd be pretty good for a plant the size of a popcan. Keep checking back man. seeya 9inch. I spotted 1 male so far.

yah i'll keep the males depending on how many. if theres more than 4 i'll pull a couple just to get the females some more room. I was going to try to selectively pollinate 1 plant but realised that to fill that cabinet next grow with 32 females will require about 75 seeds per grow. i need at least 400 seeds this grow so I might just let it go wild. I want some to fall off the plants even a week before they finish so i can overlap the new crop as much as possible. I want it very perpetual. about 45 days every crop. Amc you should start your next crop now so that when your plants that you have now are finished you'll be ready to flower right away. if the others in the house don't care you could prob get 20 plants under your 400. even 20 of those popcan sized plants would be amazing. i am still praying for that style of plant or bigger. i don't want many leaves. so what are you going to do next?
