hey there looking good, :). I have one that is flowering outside too, :). I am more than pleased with it...... :D :D. Im still moving........ somewhere...... no idea where though, every place that got lined up ended badly...... fam is good...... gotta figure out what I am going to do with the 40+ ladies by the end of the week........ do you want those G-13 plants to finish flowering? Or would you rather they go back into veg. I have been working alot with growth hormones and the differect affects/effects they play in different environments. For example.... nematode problem splitting the base/zylem of your plant? Just rub root hormone on the exposed parts and cover with soil. Kills the nematode with no adverse effects.

Went out today and the plants looked good without any sign of transplant shock. I bought the organic thrip, aphid, catapiller killer. It is suppose to take the place of BT as the bacterial warfare against these sucking bastards. I am always looking for some sort of deterrent against the bugdom. I will let you know how it works as Im going to use it on all my plants.

I will be adjusting the plants to get the optimal sun spots for all of them. Wish I could get my neighbor to cut down their trees so I could get morning sun. They have 2 yappy dogs so I guess I cant do any night recon on the trees. Sheesh they bark if Im in my kitchen.

Ok the lineup for tonight is:

G13 (1, 2, 7, 8 middle 2,
WC xCC (8 front 2, 9, 13 left,
WCD (5, 6)
HJ (11 left, 13 right, 15 front (2 in 1 pot) and back left,
JS (8 back 2, 11 right, 15 back right)
JTR (14)
Bugs (10, 12)
Bacterial warfare (4)

looks good blends pretty well with ur surrounding brush too. i know wat ure saying about neighbors with yappy lil doggs and a their tree that needs to b trimmed so our babies can get more sunlight. i thouhgt about doin a night mission too but figured the dogs even tho their inside would wake up my neighbor.

did u double plant in one of the containers or does one plant have two tops? im trippin out lol

Went out this eve before dark and saw some balls but mostly hairs (about 4 to 1). There wasnt much light but I will look again tomorrow. I will see if I can use a magnigying glass and my camara at the same time to get some pics.
GOt some pics but Im not sure of the quality. I tried the magnigying glass and straight camara. One for sure boy was transferred to a small pot and a girl in a small pot was transferred to a big pot. I found out the WC X CC cross or what I thought was a cross are 2 different seeds so I could have planted CC or WC. I have 2 WC phenos from clones so I will add to the bunch. The WC is White Widow X Purple Cindy (HGS) and CC is some Chemo pollen on a Purple Cindy mom. They look promising.

I think all the JS are girls. The HJ are still waiting to drop or grow hair. I think the JTR is a girl but I will look again tomorrow to make sure its not wishful thinking.

The G13 are looking puffy dont you think?

Looking good there. glad to see your on your way. :peace:

Thx Hodgy and Zigzag. I removed the male to a smaller pot and when I did I saw the new roots had already started reaching out in the new pot. We just need some sun down here for some major growth. It was raining this AM. Stick around Im sure the fun is just begining.

your g13 wants to reveg. its not finishing flower.
I dont know. I will give it some more time but I think it has stopped growing. THe one has single bladed fan leaves and some are curled. I read that is what they do when reveging. The calyxes on it are very fat. I hope it reveges but I wont hold my breath.

yes, the leaflet decrease should be matched by the calyxes "fatting off" as I like to call it. You can pick them off and dry them for a couple bowls of "pre smoke". Should reveg no problem, :).

We finally got some decent sun exposure today and I saw a better place for the plants. I think it will receive about 3 hours more sun. Since I had the trees cut the shadows are very different. If I could cut the neighbors trees I would be set where they are but I cant do that since they are good people.

I need to watch that male so he doesnt pop on me. Im gona move it soon. It was the first up out of 6 plants and was also the tallest.

Went out yesterday and moved 6 plants to a new location in the back that gets more sun. I wasn't sure when I first started this grow where to put the plants since I had 2 trees which shadded most of the yard until the afternoon. Now that I have had the trees trimmed there is plenty of sun on the backyard but the spot I had the plants was shadded in the AM until 10 or 1030 AM.

I couldnt tell where the sun shined earlier since it was overcast a lot. I think if I do an in ground grow, this new area is where I will do it. I get sun from about 8 AM to 6:30 PM. THats about 2.5 hours more sun than the initial spot.

I inspected the plants for gender yesterday and found another male or 2. Today when I went out and looked, out of the 4 remaining HJ I found 2 and possibly 3 males. Damn!! I have one female so that is good. Now I just need a good male for seeds. Im not sure on the last 2 because the HJ is the last to show gender so its a little soon for those 2. I also found a male JS so thats 1 male and 2 females.

The best ratio of females to males was WC/CC. I Think I have 5 out of 8 seeds were females. I found the first male WC/CC was also the first to sprout fropm seed. I thought the first to sprout would be the males but other strains have proven that theory wrong. The JTR is a definate female. What luck; one seed=female :clap:. The JTR is also the bushiest and shortest of all plants. Subcool mentioned the "short pheno" is the one to have so I hope this is the one.

Since I have been removing the males from the 20-gal pots and replacing them with females that were in the 5- gal pots I have noticed the growth rate of the roots from the time of repotting. All of the removed plants have extended their root mass into the first (potting soil) and into the intermediate second layer (mix of lower and upper layers) of modified Supersoil. New Rootlets have extended about 6 inches from when uppotted.

Since the modified Supersoil is intended to just be watered that is what I will do to some while fertilizing others with GH Maxi and Maxsea dry ferts pHed to 6.5. I was hoping for more females but I think I will have at least 11 if not 12 in the end (keeping fingers crossed).

Thats it for now. I will get some pics tomorrow when its light.

Males are a part of growing with seeds. I will need to use more seeds next time but I actually think I did it almost perfect this time for the number of plants I can have legally. I wish I had better luck with some that didnt pop (CI x BB and C99 x Apollo 11) but it all worked out.

I was going to make some seeds for next time but I didnt want to waste bud so I think I will just pollinate the preflowers so I dont loose potentcy (thx for the idea FDD).

I have 2 HJ and 2 WC males to choose from. I have segregated the males from the rest but I have also harvested the pollen sacks as soon as they drop to a downward position.

I cut the buds off the G13s today to see if they will reveg. If they dont they will get pulled. Really like that strain. Those buds smell really dank but we shall see how it smokes. Keeping my fingers crossed but I dont have my hopes up as the stress of reveging is hard on a plant and has put a major stoppage in these plants development. I know where I can get more for next time so no worries.

Going to use the GH and Maxsea tomorrow on a few plants for my little nute vs organic grow challenge.

I also have 73 cherry tomato plants I potted up sunday. They are coming along nicely but look a little N defficient. We shall fix that tomorrow. What the hell was I thinking sowing that many seeds???? Anyone want some cherry tomato plants?

Also found a fricken catapiller on one of my plants. WTF? Isnt it kind of early for those bastards. Well I have some nuclear organic insecticide for those little bastards. Im going to spray the whole yard especially the roses. They have been hit hard by the catapillers.

I really like the new location since I get 2.5 hrs more sun exposure.
