great job man! If you have a little more patience try out some photoperiod plants. You may get a male here and there but in my experience photo's give me much more potent herb. There are good autos out there, but IMO i'd rather have a good photo strain I find and be able to clone it out for later if its special. Great journal man and glad to see you are reaping the rewards!
Thanks brother! I will try photos. I've got a dozen or so gelatos from bagseed to cut my teeth on but my cabinet is not yet light tight and I have 4 more auto fems that I'm gonna run out 2 at a time first. I want to add a 2x4 tent with a diy led so I can actually grow my limit of 4 at a time. And next summer, I'd like to go outside. Maybe a hoop house. My house needs more climate control in the summer.

cool man any ideas on the DIY Led? I know that these are a pretty fantastic deal! https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/collections/quantum-boards/products/qb96-elite-v2-quantum-board-engine
also there is a promo code RIU10 or DIY10

things will only get better, but as you get more advanced -- don't forget the basics; they will come back and throw you for a loop!

for the hoop house If you're doing a walk in I'd recommend metal hoops if you are in a stormy/snowy area


to sex the photos you can put them in flower for two weeks then take them back out. They will stretch a bit but also show signs in the following 2-4 weeks, and will help when it comes to deciding what to transplant

If it is bagseed due to being a hermi-prone plant they may just cause you trouble and you may just want to buy some seeds they are cheap and worth the less hassle. You can also grow feminized photos, but I've had much more luck with regular photos. If those bag seed were pollinated stably then I would grow them though. I just want to warn you if they were hermi-prone before, they will be again!

Yeah I like the hlg stuff but I will only order from within Canada. Shipping kills me. And I won't have money for anything until I get back to work. And yeah, bagseed usually means weak genetics, .. well, there's a guy a few hours from me that has offered clones, so I may do that instead, when the time comes. IDK, for now I'm gonna finish the solo cup challenge, lol. Flowering and vegging in the same little cabinet is a PITA and impossible with photos.
