Haha, yeah. waiting for sex to show and deciding when to harvest were the most irritating parts of my first grow. its horrible, lol!

ok so i think i figured out what was wrong with pepper i was checkin the ph and when i would probe different sides of the pot i would get way different readings. i finally figured out that when i was probing the root ball from the soda bottle i used earlier in the grow the ph was like 5.1 when i would probe the new soil the dirt was 6.7 to 6.8 so i decided to transplant and hope for the best. i took her out back and rinsed her root ball of when i got all the new soil from around the soda bottle rootball i found that it was hard as concrette so i rinsed it out as best as i could and put her back in her pot and put good soil back in her and am hopin 4 the best. also the clones still havent shown there sex yet and im really gettin impatient lol

holy shit it is what i have been waitin for the cherry clone has finally showed sex and im proud no announce it is a she!!! i have been getting so impatient the last few days to the point where i was inventing shit i was seeing i was lookin so hard for hairs. i have got the flower cab built but by no way is it complete. i will be adding more and more as i need it. diesil riggs is still in limbo im seeing something forming but cant be sure yet.
here is the flowering chamber the outside dimensions are 31'' wide 24'' deep and 41'' high





this picture isnt the best but if you look you can see the hairs im talkin about


this is cherry and the size of the clones im takin from her

check out the 9 fingered leaves


this is after i took 6 clones and re lsted her

here are the clones

also i didnt take any pics of pepper as she is sick and is camera shy i do have a clone from her that rooted and is looking great she is on her way back finally after getting her roots some care

CONGRATS on the girl man! i have been doing some mad LST over the last 5 days. cant wait to show some pictures on saturday of what i am getting! i just bend the plant a different way so i could allow another spot to compete
But im serisouly pumped for you right now, BOUT TIME they showed their sex. everything is looking awesome for you. WOOHOO

great news nitro...congrats on the girl...I hope pepper responds to the repotting and TLC your giving her! peace

thanks guys im stoked about the great news as well if everything goes right and i figure out a tried and true tech on this cloning shit im gonna turn the flower cab into a 30 plant perpetual sog grow

havent checked on this in a while of course i wasnt on glad 2 see your doing great as i got busted

dude i love how your LST WENT!! i cant wait to see how mines gonna turn out. ive done something alittle different than i think most do. take alook at my new pics.

yours are lookin nice tk here are some pics from tonight im now 100 percent sure im workin with some girls and wanted to share a lil progress with you
here is cherry

here is diesil riggs

beautiful man!!! i love the nice little white shoots. if only i could get my plant healthy, i would start my flowering tomorro. week 5 is now done. i think its about time i start flowering what do you think? are you 2 weeks into flower now?

hey tk im 2 weeks and 6 days from when i swapped the lights to 12 12

love the setup man
lst went very well glad to see you took clones whole process is awesome keep it up

lookin good nitro
preety girls you got there

ok the girls are looking great this evening and im seing tons of lil hairs everywhere. its almost like they have doubled every day. is this normal? also i am thinking of changing my lighting in the flower box to 2 70w hps. im just looking at it will be way less energy consumption than if i used cfls because i would have to have so many of them. i will post pics of what i have going on with the girls friday and will do weekly updates after that.

dont be worried about hairs
even if you have a very hairy "european" bud ull be fine

its not weird for them to look like they are all hairs at the beginning of flowering. as the buds grow and fatten up the hairs will not be as prominent.

cool deal i was just worried something was wrong. it just seemed that they were just sticking out of nothing at all like there was no bud formage just hairs. now that i have given them a few days i can see some green bud under all those hairs now. i am about another week off from switching peppers clone to 12/12 to determine sex. i just got the first clone from the six i cut last week rooted and planted this evening. i added a heat pad under the lil green house and im hopin that they will start rooting with no prob at all. my goal is to grow lolipop style in the soda bottles. i want this to be a perpetual grow and am wondering if i should swap to a small set of hps lights since the plants will be staggered in height?
ok enough talk here is my first true bud porn
