Pic taken about 32h ago.
Sleeskunk (2/15/2014) on left, lsd (2/20/2014) on right.

Unfortunately I lost power about 24h ago and there's no estimate on when it will be back on.....so if they're still alive when I get back to them this weekend I'll continue, but if not you'll know why I stopped posting =(
Aww sorry that happened boozoo maybe you can set them near a private window until the lights come back on I do that when harvesting pollen from the boys I just set them in a larger cup that's kinda frosty so that light can get in but not so transparent that my neighbors will catch on that the herbs :) best luck nice strains I actually love skunks never have tried LSD strain that is haha I do meet up with Lucy on occasion though haha I love her haha, peace, love & grow on namaste :)
 
Saturday update, wow so this is a pretty good comparison to show why soil choice is so important the K Gro is out growing the Miracle Grow organic amazing difference maybe that seed was just weak or something so the plant is also but I'm pretty sure it's just that the MG doesn't have the things the MJ needs but ya I high ;) ly recommend the K Gro just get the one with perlite added that's the trick peace & love

The problem I'm dealing with is also not having a car at the moment and being at a different location....Thursday night (not Friday as I thought) I left the plants in a dark closet. Now that the power has been out for 4 daytime cycles, I'm a little worried. Not to mention the temperature drop. My sources tell me it'll pull through, but we'll have to see.

In any case, I've been eyeballing a few auto strains that would allow me to harvest by June/July.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to meet Lucy but her cousins are a joy to be around ;)

Looking good! I don't believe I'll be using the MG soil for my next run, I've come to the conclusion it's much more beneficial to create your own or use a recipe.

Good news! They are alive & kicking. The days in the dark definitely stunted growth, but they are ok.

The sleeskunk does not look particularly happy, however...still growing and the new growth looks healthy, just showing signs of nute burn and still cal/mag deficiency. Added some stuff that should help, but we will see. Power is back on and I'll be back in my place later today so I'll be able to keep a better eye on them.

As long as they're growing I'm not stressing, but please correct me if I'm wrong.
 
Of the three plants that I started with one was a male so I harvested the pollen and put a bit on one of the lower buds of the plant pictured here because I want to keep this Blue Dream around I just love the hazes :) the other plant was also fem but because she was in different soil that wasn't meeting her nutrient needs and because I wanted to keep her organic and natural I decided that I would need to use some fish emulsion on her but that stuff is smelly haha so I planted her out side under a shrub where I can now give her whatever she needs and have no worries of stinky fish smell haha anyways it should prove to be most interesting this is my first time outdoors :mrgreen:

Well my friends, sleeskunk is out of the running. Finally showed sex today and as you can see, I won't be getting any buds off it. I'll keep it on a little longer to get some pollen, but it looks like LSD is the sole survivor.

A shame too, after the recovery it's made. I must say I'm rather disappointed.

Family photo, left: sleeskunk (male, 2/15) right: LSD (2/20) I planted a couple more beans to get a perpetual grow going. One sleeskunk and one lsd, I feel like it'll go a little more smoothly now that I know some things to look out for.
Anyway....

Close-up of.... Let's call her Lucy, shall we?

Experiencing a slight mildew problem undoubtedly due to the fact that my setup is so ghetto. I may have to relocate them in the near future.

Looks good everybody, sorry for stalling for so long.

I fucked up my back [again x3] and have a friend helping me out big time while I recover. So no plants for me at the moment+ I had an attack of the Fem/Male too, sucks.....hopefully we can get a 2nd round going...

namaste

I do have my "girl" still but I put her back into veg because I was scared to death of this:

It's femmy pollen though, as only girl exploded with mushroom heads [28 days into the flip or so] so, I saved some dust for make femmies later. Not a hermie! Having a male and female flower on the same plant is just monoecious characteristics possibly being dominant and not recessive as they usually are. Now a Single flower that has both Girl and Boy Parts, true hermaphrodite. ]Edit: most say that having a flower of either sex on the plant at the same time is a true hermaphrodite, but I argue this, like above]



[Phuck I guess I am wrong about hermaphroditism but I am a big Tom Hill fan and his opinion has formed mine]
