whats wierd is im so angry and seriously depressed (mainly because I spent like 500-600 for my first grow) I wonder how it will be if I complete architecture and a design doesnt get accepted lol. Im just kidding, but really this sucks. I appreciate everyone for still sticking around. even though shes a hermie ima still snap pics just in case others would like other pics of hermies as well. Eh.....time to twist one.

Damn I see it that sucks bro. Some of those lower leaves look like they have a purple hue to them. Maybe you can still get some decent smoke bro sorry to hear the bad news. Keep up the good work though this experience has more than likely taught you a great deal that you didn't know before don't get to bummed bro.

Thanks for the comments man I appreciate it. She actualyl isnt erkel shes a White Rhino that hermi'd on me. It actually came from a group of hermies we just didn tknow which plant was which because the tags fell out and they were just clones. I ended up trashing the erkel ;/ and mistake this one for white rhino (more like guess). Thanks though. Ill check out your journal.

oh well hahha its still a beautiful girl, wonder how much your gonna yeild off of it, any clue? if its a hermi oh well atleast your gonna have some bomb seeds for future grows, cant go wrong with a good strain, maybe youll get lucky and all the seeds will end of FEM, ive had plants that were hermi and all the seeds from it turned out female, was awesome!

Not so much smell to it but you know theres a bush in there when you walk in. Nothing to strong. Not sure what im going to experience but oh well we will see.
I think I will grow them like this next time also, but ill be ble to do it early and get it really low.

There are many ways to lst, at least to me...Ive seen all kinds of ways to strap her down and what not but I just used screws, I wish the pics would work im trying to find my old thread and it shows how I started.
I used screws. You tie a (I used fishing line, wouldnt recommend it, yarn would work) one line around the base so you dont up root it. Then start bending her at certain points..I really dont know how to explain it im hoping someone else can. You can google LST and find alot on it. You can also use duct tape to hold the string instead of tying it around the screw.
Mine started out tall so I didnt pull her down to hard YET..you can tie her down more and more as she grows because her stems get use to it. I would just pull down her nodes as u can see in my advitar, I would tie a string at the very top of that stem and pull her down and she goes straight back up within a day for the light (hps takes like 3 hours and it aims for it, nuts). See how many tops I have? All I did was tie a string around every stem and bent her so light can penetrate in the middle. As you can see I have a cross pattern in my advitar. Hope that helps man.
