Looking Good...As a rule of thumb people spend the extra money on FF OF soil for the simple fact they dont have to feed them for 1.5-2 months.Just water and you will be shocked..other than that it looks like you got it handled..looking forward to a couple of weeks from now when the buds start showing

Question1- they are all NOT sexed yet. only one has shown its intentions and its a gorgeous female. if u look in the pics theres 9 plants there, the one female is dead center under the middle of the light.
2- i only took one clone from each, and one clone died( heat issue lol) and theres still one that hasnt showed roots yet, but is deff trying to root, theres resistance on the stem.
3- there 4 days into flower
4- the shorter ones i believe are just a diff strain but thats a good idea. just gotta find some book i dont care about
5- Thanks bro, im trying my best here

sorry but I didnt see your question here?

 

[chrisg420]

lol that was in response to drella. i got FFOF as a trial, i like the results but its funny u say u dont need to feed them because i have been feeding them steady the whole time they been in FFOF besides when they were seedlings . good news today everyone. i went in to look at the ladies, and i have 5 guarenteed females that are all massive (4+ colas each) and only one questionable one left. the 3 small ones up front all were male so i killed today and killed the clones that matched. now only one more to sex and boy wouldnt it be a shame if its a boy. its a tree. ill post pics in a few. for now some

your plants look good I am just saying you dont need nutes to vegg a 6'er in 3 months with ffof

thought I was missing something on the Q and A

do what you do, but you did say this is your first grow, with bag seed, so I dont know if I am the guy you want to laugh at

was not laughing at you directly, sorry if i offended you. im started nutes about a month into the growing, but thanks for the knowledge ill know better then to waste money on nutes in the first month or 2

 

[chrisg420]

So as i stated i sexed out almost all my plants. heres some new pics. a lot of them are close ups of them. look closely and u will see white hairs all over

pics with the last 3 numbers being 211, 212, and 213 are pics of all the six remaining plants.

Pic 211- 2 on left and 2 in middle are female, on in front on right is female, back right corner is questionable

pic 212- shot of the back right corner plant in question

pic 213- all plants in this pic are females. take note of the multiple colas

pic 214- are all clones, the front 3 are rooted nicely, all females. back left and right are rooted nicely also females. the one in the middle is the last clone i took just today off one of my mommas. hopefully she roots.

NP I was reading it wrong I guess.. anyhow they are growing nice

If you dont mind me saying it is looking like you might be having the onset of overwatering. or possibly spider mites. First thought is Overwatering. But check for buggers 2 under them leaves curling like a claw and getting a little wrinkly as well. The fold over could be mites, and the wrinkle overwatering...meaning you more than likely have both going on

 

[chrisg420]

i checked them earlier today as well as every day, no mites in sight, but im going to get neem oil as a precaution

-i concur with fallinghigh

i used FFOF for outdoor with great results but is hot for clones and vegging so u dont need to feed it for a month or two. always start low and build up the tolerance of course.

anyways brotha checkin in via ur PM request lookin good. solid with ur equip soil and nute lineup. everyones got their own nute theories so i just like to see wat works and doesnt work but ill help out with wat i can.


-oh and ya spray sum neem oil. make sure u follow directions closely dont use more then needed i got a lil ahead outdoors and think i covered too much leaf and gave it sum weird mutated look for a while and never really recovered. it was my retard of the batch lol. didnt help that i broke its main stalk while she was young and in training to bend over like most my ladies buuut ya neem will help prevent. lady bugs do wonders btw u can order em online for chepa or hit up a nursery for them. create predator bugs i actually am rockin praying mantis bahaha i got a lil army.

 

[chrisg420]

So wait ur telling me gettin a few ladie bugs would also help? and how would u advise to put neem oil on? and when? lights on or off? off i would assume

 

[BooMeR242]

well instructions on neem oil says dont aply in direct sunlight so id assume not under HID lamps either lol. just do it when lights are off. prob around before they come on so the lights help dry the leaves. u can get lady bugs and keep em in ur freezer til needed (yes theyll be fine for a year or sum shit) and use em when/if needed. spider mites is usually a common issues with every indoor grow (that ive seen) and preventing it is best. lady bugs love them tho and will eat em up fast. u just need to inspect leaves daily for shit. signs of nute deficiancy bugs infest etc. when ure done with the lady buigs and mites or watever is gone u can catch em or suck em up with a shop vac and put em bak in the container and bak in their freezer apartment they go until next time...

also if u have open vent hoods close em up of the lady bugs will flyin get zapped and u got sum clean up to do...

 

[Drella]

looking great chris! im so happy for ur females, and looks like ur getting a following now! clones look great! let's keep a close eye on em so we can get some max yield!

 

[chrisg420]

so lady bugs can be frozen then unthawed?how many u think i would want in my closet? and i just did a decetn seed order, 7 fem strains, 2 seeds each

great shit boomer, you learn new shit every day!

good start with the strains. id like to do more strians but i want to master one and get my setup down first. but yes the ladybugs can be unthawed. so goes the theory. i have not done this for myself but books state it and my biz partner did it with his grow worked grerat. the orders go up to like 1500 ladybugs or sum ridici shit for like $15 ahah so idk how many ud need if ever but just a fair headsup


thanks drella its how i learned. experience and other RUIers just returning the favor to the community

 

[chrisg420]

hell ya man. i will post a list of all the strains later or something

 

[chrisg420]

So all is great over here in the land of ice and snow. great news being the unsexed questionable plant, turns out its a female. that means i had 66% female to male ratio from seeds
