damn only 5 feet, thats kinda weird haha.
The hermi is a hermi man, even with the topping, its not gonna do bac to being just female.
140 is alot for a card, but if you could get clones, i would aslo try that since its a guaranteed female.
I was just thinking you can do party cups since there easy to hide, and you can still get a good yield of them.

k just got back from my friends house, and he gave me 3 Af-Wreck seeds for free, but I want to save those until I get better at growing. Im just going to pick 10 of the biggest and roundest seeds out of the mix bag. Some are striped, some are all dark brown, and some are all light brown.
To germ these 10 seeds, I put them in a shot glass with water in it. When the tap root pops out I will plant them into party cups or small square flower pots that hold about the same volume as a party cup. The difference between the two is the square flower pots have drainage holes in them already and are square. The party cups dont have drainage holes and are round.
I couldnt tell if SICC put drainage holes in the bottom of his party cups, but I want to copy his method.

dude your plants are getting fried from too much miracle grow, throw that shit away and go buy some organic nutrients. If you are spending money on lights you might as well just grow them outdoors and spend the money on nutrients instead. botanicare makes pure blend pro grow and pro blend bloom which are organic and work good or you could get something else. There are plenty of nutrients to choose from, flora nova, fox farms, and advanced nutrients which is the best and way over priced.
nice fucking seed collection

[QUOTE="SICC";4130008]Its all good man, i did have drainage holes in my party cups.
And you should do the same.
Have you looked into the paper towel method to germinate the seeds?[/QUOTE]
K ill put drainage holes in the party cups.
Ive tried the wet paper towel method before and accidentally let the towel go dry. I guess I can try it again since I have the time to keep an eye on it. Im going to put 5 in a wet paper towel and keep 5 in the shot glass of water to see if one works faster then the other.

Ive gotten a few mixed comments on miracle grow and how my plants are going to react to it. I really dont think Ive burnt them, if anything they are showing nutrient deficiency. Before I planted the seeds in Miracle grow soil I flushed the soil with 5 Gal of water for 2 days because I read about miracle grow killing plants. I do plan on getting a few nutrient solutions though, probably next pay check. Was going to start with what I saw SICC using... Micro and Grow for veg and hydrozyme for roots and kool bloom for flower, also saw he had some (botanicare) hydroplex, and sweet; (General Hydroponics) Flora Micro, Kool Bloom, and Flora Grow.
I used to move some serious weight in college like a pound a week, and I would pick through each nug looking for seeds so my costumers would be happy with seedless bud.

OMG!!! less then 12 hours from putting the 5 seeds in between a folded brown paper bag that was thoroughly wet and inside a plastic zip lock bag 2 of the 5 have already began to split open. The tap root hasnt come out yet but I can see the seem of the seeds cracking open and the white inside the seed.
zero of the 5 in the shot glass have cracked open as far as I can see. 3 have sunk to the the bottom of the shot glass and 2 are still floating.
These seeds from the mix bag are over 5 years old and still viable.

So now I need to get my ass in gear and prepare for these new seedlings. Didn't plan on a less than 12 hour germ, I was thinking 24 to 72 hours.
Going to get some soil today and some basic nutrients and set up the party cups. Ill get more pictures up later today when the camera is charged.
