Remaining plants were transplanted last night. Noticed a minor mag def setting in so I foliar fed with epsom salt. This most likely occurred because I've been watering a tad early in order to let the nematodes i added thrive. The soil has been constantly moist, never fully drying. On a positive note, no fungus gnats to be seen and my yellow stick trap is clean.

I'm hoping to end up with 9 females. 2 plants under each light except the cob which i will have one plant under. I'd still be happy with 7-8 too

The nightmare cookie runt. Hopefully this turns out be one of the males.

This is the only plant I currently have under the cob. I'm not sure how far to keep the cob from the plant, so I'm using this plant as the guinea pig to figure it out.

fast growing tall plants does not at all mean they'r male. It just means they are a sativa dominant strain. You should probably top or super crop or tie down those 2.


you can have the cob about 16 inches away from the canopy. The a51's 20 inches away.
the Hans - 12 inches away.

Doing a tie down and/or top on Sunday when I'm off work and my girlfriend is out of town. But yea I know tall doesn't guarantee it being a male, but males do tend to be taller and lengthier. Just keeping an eye on them is all. Out of 8 nightmare cookies, 3 are growing faster and lengthier between nodes than the other 5. Out of the other 5 I have one runt.

keep in mind the white nightmare in that cross has blue dream (sativa), Flo (sativa), blueberry (indica). And gsc grows fast and stretchy. Blue dream is really a sister pheno to blueberry haze.

males always shows sex sooner than females.

I tied down one of my females. I'll be doing this to more soon. I've verified 3 females and 2 males of nightmare cookies. The kobain kush are popping pre flowers now but are too small to tell sex. Adonis is 2 weeks behind the others so hopefully soon they show sex too

I'm going put 2 plants under the Hans and 2 plants under the A51 RW-75. It would be nice if all 4 plants were the same strand but I need to see how many Nightmare Cookie females I end with. Ideally I want 2 Nightmare cookies under each plant. This will make a sweet head to head comparison between the two lights.

So you have all the lights? How many plants total now? Had sign of sex show? I'm very interested in your DIY LeD as well!
I have all lights. I started with 15 plants. I have thrown away two males. I've identified 3 females. Others have preflowers but are still small. I think I have 4 more males and 2 more females. The others I'm not sure about yet. By Saturday or Sunday Im sure I'll have them sorted out. I may grab a clone from hyroot if I don't end up with at least 7 females.
