And I can respect that. I'm not trying to convince you. Everything in this thread is what I'm doing for my grow and my curiosity. If it's a subpar idea for you and your situation that's cool. This is what I'm doing.

Right, but what I’m saying is even if there are a few male parts there are no hermie traits. As far as genetics go, its genetics are treated as a female - not a hermie.

:lol: well that’s a sure way to find the 2 strongest ladies. I’m sure they’ll appreciate the extra space, especially for the stretch. How long until the switch to flower?

With all due respect, that's not what legendary breeders like Soma or well respected authors on Cannabis botany like Greg Green or Robert Connell Clarke say. If done properly, you have a 95% chance of all female plants with very few hermies. But, maybe you know about new research or evidence...

I'm definitely not a new grower or just here for cheap seeds. I've grown for over 10 years and am very interested in the science behind genetics and the expression of phenotypes.

I get what you are saying and agree it can be problematic without proper care (exactly what I've read). However, what I'm reading in different papers and from breeders is this issue is mitigated when you select high quality moms with few male parts at the end of flowering vs a plant that is...

i find all of that fascinating. looks like I have a lot more reading to do.

Discovered something that blew my mind today...you can produce stable feminized seeds from a hermie, no chemicals. This is from Marijuana Botany - An Advanced Study: The Propagation and Breeding of Distinctive Cannabis by Robert Connell Clarke: "The accidental release of some pollen from...

Gnat killer mix is working well. This time of year it’s almost impossible to keep them out of the house, especially because I always buy bananas and have house plants. 1/2 cup of water 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar 2 Tbsp dish soap Splash of soy sauce (supposedly they love the smell)

Nutes + water. Not worrying about whether they're truly watered and hovering over each plant, watering 1 by 1 is nice. Added bonus: if any adult gnats are hanging around, they easily get drowned.

The girls taking a bath The seedling stage is fun seeing the foundation being built, but I can't wait to see something in flower. Cheese is 1 week and Malawi is 3 days.

Ever find yourself shopping for seeds you have no business buying right now? :lol: Really want to hit up the landrace sativas like Panama, Bangi Haze, Congo, highland Thai then a few heirlooms like DJ Short’s Blueberry and Mr. Soul’s C99. Starting to formulate a plan where I could keep some...

You have an entertaining and thorough style of documenting your grow. I can’t believe more people don’t comment here. And your plants are always LUSCIOUS. It’s rare to see the leaves looking so good all the way up to harvest! You truly have things dialed in, love to see it.

Found a straggler in this Jordanz bud. Straight to the paper towel it goes. The Guava Fritter 2 tops were looking too juicy, time for haircut. Before... After... Hope these root The malawi sprouted :hump:

I'm not sure on ppm as I grow only in soil, but agree the plants are around mid-flowering. The buds are getting nice and thick

They're looking luscious :weed:

In on the cheese train Have 3 x fem UK Cheese (Original Kush Seeds) that popped 2-3 days ago. Ignore top left, is a seed that showed up in some local bud I smoked that has a few weeks head start. These girls will be moms for clones in a SoG until I can sort out who's worthy of keeping around.

thank you Thundercat, that’s awesome! Feel free to chime in any time, I’m sure I could learn a lot from you.

The 4 mamasitas this morning They get watered in this bucket with the flood and drain method Dr. Bud was using: Place the plants in the bucket, slowly filling with water (and any nutes) until the water covers 1/4" above the soil line. Once there aren't any more bubbles from gas releasing...

glad to have you along :blsmoke:
