You and me both Honkytown. It's a seed that came from some real quality bud, it was the only seed and I found it right in the middle of a 5 gram nugget, I kept it for over a year until I decided to do this grow.
Although I am growing purely for my own consumption, no doubt some of it will find it's way to a select few but, Alice is strictly personal, that is of course if its a girl. I really do hope so, it's the only one that I have had a strong feeling it might be female, just hope I'm right. It was germinated about 5 days earlier than the others too.
Just looked in on my clones and the leaves are all upright and looking great. I'll take some pics in the next day or so, I don't want to stress them any.


Anyone got any ideas what this is? I know the picture is a bit vague and you can see where I topped the plant a week ago. is it a ball? it doesn't look like the last male I had.

I just can't seem to get a decent picture of it and Ive been trying for about 3 days now

OK here we go again!!
This is the only shot I could get with them in focus.
You can see the detail a bit better, although it looks like balls it is not the same as what I saw before and these seem to be opening up.
This is the only site on the whole plant where these are, I can't find them anywhere else.

Here's the pic.

here's the same picture, I have altered the exposure and contrast to try to get a clearer view.
I hope this helps.


Here a bigger blow up of it.


After researching a little, I think these are just new growths. The male that I had, the balls were very distinctive and on little storks these do not look the same.
I will keep a close eye on them but, fingers crossed this could still be female. I really hope so because this is the only plant I topped and want to compare it to the others.

OK, it's time I showed my cloning set-up so that people can tell me off, or not, I guess anything is possible.


I have so far taken 3 cuttings, 1 from Alice and 2 from Genie.
I might take a couple more from Biga tonight and try rooting them with a different method. Which ever is the most successful is the method I will use in future.

Here is my clone Set-up

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This picture is just showing the heat-pad that I am using underneath the tank.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This picture is to show the humidity inside the tank.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally and most importantly, here are the clones. They have been in the tank for two days so far and they are looking really healthy to my untrained eye.


The temps are in the mid to low 70s, I have not watered them since they were cut, nor do I intend to. The soil was misted just enough to make it damp and the rockwool cubes were also misted close up enough to make them wet but not soaking.
If and when the glass stops steaming up then I will just mist everything again. I'm hoping they can be potted in about 10 days. maybe a bit longer for Genies clones as the rockwool cubes were a bit bigger than I needed.

=========================================================
Here a couple of pictures of Biga,
She will be donating my next 2 clones, (thats my excuse to show her off again):mrgreen:.


What looks like white on the leaves above is just the light reflecting off the mylar.
I love this plant it looks so lush and strong. Looks good enough to eat....well....OK then, it looks good enough to smoke at a later date. lol:weed: bongsmilie

I have finally finished lightproofing my flower room. it is not how I wanted it. Ideally my flower and vegging would be the other way around as the vegging area has more height.
I would have had to empty a bookcase, unscrew it from a wall then re-fix it somewhere else. Maybe by the time this lot is harvested I will get round to it. I am going to do a couple more grows to finish two to four weeks after this one. That way I will have enough to be able to let it cure and get the best out of it.
I will post some pics in the next day or two. Maybe after the fan has come and I have fitted it.

Male or new growth?
Anyone? Had to bump this post as I am still not sure about these. I'm sure some of it is just new growth but need to watch this plant closely. I am going to start flowering in the next 2 days, I will be putting them in darkness either tonight or tomorrow.

Hey, Does Any Of The Other Node's On The Plant Look Anything Like This One???.........I Have Seen In The Past, When Topping, Maybe Pinch A Little Low, & Get Into The New Growth, And The First Set Of Leave's Come Out Kind Of Mutant???.........Man I Would Give It A Few Day's, To See If A Pistil May Show???..........But At This Point I Would Say It's A Suspect!! (a.k.a. male).........Best of Luck!!!:mrgreen::blsmoke::joint::hump::roll::peace:

Very nice photo's and some MILF clone moms you got there, sorry i have been gone, been hunting hermies for days lol!

But all looks very well on your front- my bet is placed on new growth for those photo's.

Sorry its been so long, will certainly be back sooner.
Looking good
