    tiresias Mist, question

    You aren't really causing a hermie with cs. You are just suppressing ethylene production which makes the flowers female. So in the sprayed areas the flowers produced are pollen sacks, but they are still female. No male chromosome in that pollen which is why all the babies are females. They...

    My first auto grow!

    20/4 is great for autos. I missed where you said your photoperiod if you did, butautos do fine at 20/4. Sometimes, esp with a short dark period, the plants will appear wilted a little while before the lights shut off. Wouldn't be surprised if this carried over a bit into about an hour or so...

    buying strawberrys plants at home depot

    Yea, if you are willing to wait this year out with one plant, you will get more than you need worth of free ones from the runners. Otherwise you'll end up having to cut them off and throw them out if you buy a bunch now lol. They are super efficient reproducers.

    Can I make a father w/ only CFL?

    The seeds will have the same genetics regardless of how much light, nutes, etc you give the parents, so long as you don't cause any mutations. If you aren't using a bunch of chemicals, odds are you're safe on that front.

    When you use cs to force balls on a fem plant (w/CS), and then pollinate it with its own pollen....

    Thank you! I said that same thing somewhere else and was told it was ignorant babble by a mod, so I wanted to fact check on a different forum. Make sure I wasn't overlooking anything.

    When you use cs to force balls on a fem plant (w/CS), and then pollinate it with its own pollen....

    Possibly, but you would just be expressing a hermie trait if it hermied because the cs stressed it also, not adding a new one into the mix that would show in the seeds imo. What I took from that is the genes aren't technically changing. You are just breeding and picking the plants that made...

    When you use cs to force balls on a fem plant (w/CS), and then pollinate it with its own pollen....

    It should be exactly the same as if you cloned the plant before spraying it with CS,and then used that pollen on the clone instead of the same plant you partially flipped correct? Some people are saying that it can "confuse" the plant and lead to hermies, but that doesn't really make sense...

    Auto-flower strain suggestions. :-)

    If you are growing an auto, then honestly, just pick the one you want the most and work on getting the conditions right. It shouldn't be very difficult. If it's your first time I definitely recommend using soil. Much more forgiving in terms of nutrients since it won't change drastically over the...

    Think Different 1Plant >200w LED (actual)

    Think Different 3Gal Smartpot (No topping or lst) LED>250w (actual) This little girl is growing like a beast, ever since it got some roots set in. She did however have some rust colored spots and it looked like a cal/mag deficiency, so I gave her some bone meal and blood meal (only things used...

    Seeking F1 Autos?

    Not 100% sure about that.. You could definitely sort out the f2-f/6 babies that were the most vigorous and eventually create a stable strain, but otherwise, you will have different genotypes, some which will be more vigorous than others.

    Afghan Kush Ryder - WTF lets SEED ONE

    Do you have any updates on the seedlings you got from these akr's? Did you self (any of) the plants? If so, did you get hermies from those babies? Been seeing a lot of people saying that it can cause that, but there are no scientific facts about why that happens and I haven't heard of it. Knew...

    topping a top

    You can top the plant as many times as you want. Like they said, just make sure it has enough time in veg to recover before flipping to flowering. What you did is similar to mainlining. Except they get rid of the side shoots so you just have the main tops.

    Seeking F1 Autos?

    Yyou might want to look into getting two very different auto's (a sativa and an indica), and then crossing those for your f1's with the hybrid vigor. Then when you run out of those hundreds of seeds, cross the two parents again for another batch of f1's. Once you go past f1 you lose the hybrid...

    Seeking F1 Autos?

    Why do you want f1's? If you breed those with each other you will get a bunch of different types of offspring. Unless you looking for hybrid vigor...

    15 gallon pots northern light autos

    That's a lot of soil. A lot of people grow auto's in 3gal pots. Smart/felt pots are even better. 10 should be more than enough to get several ounces off of each plant easily if you have your conditions correct.

    Auto-flowering seeds?

    The clones will flower and die off before putting on much size, so you wouldnt be able to make a perpetual grow using auto clones. The only time cloning an auto is useful is if you spray the clone with cs and use it for pollen.
