Right then!

So i have just recently started growing, and from the very beginning i discovered i definatley had NOT got green fingers.

I planted about 16 seeds, all germinated!
then they all streeeeeeetched cus i was using 1 cfl about a metre away!
Then i fed them with full strength nutes, 3/4 of them burned and died.
then the rest slowly flopped over and died after various attempts at propping them up, repotting them deeper, giving them loads more light.

ALL EXCEPT 1.

This one little plant has been the biggest, strongest fastest growing plant from the beginning.

It has survived everything the others didnt, and more since
I have watered it with water i ph'd incorrectly, and turned out to be at 2 instead of 6 :?
A weight i was using to keep one of my cfl's down on easy rolls fell off and bent the stem at 90 degrees for at least 3-4 hours.
it grew into my cfl and crisped up its new growth

Even after all of this its nice and green and really healthy!

I have accepted the fact that it would be almost impossible for a plant to turn out female after all the shit ive thrown at it, so my question is - do i keep it any way - even though its gonna be a big baby boy?

My thinking is that if his genetics are so good at healing itself/resistence to idiots etc.., that it would be stupid not to use him to breed a new strain that hopefully takes on his resilliance.

You never know! - i might actually create the first un-killable ganja plant!


So people?
Whats your verdict??


(heres a picture taken the day before he grew into the light)


EDIT:

Oh yeah - its super skunk btw - germinated from seed i baught in amsterdam 2 1/2 years ago, stored in a clear sealey bag on a shelf in my bedroom!

If this is your first grow, I would say keep it. There is a mantra around here that can't be repeated enough: "Grow one, grow two, grow a forest"

You will learn heaps from your first plant. Also if it does turn out to be female you can cut down dozens of clones for you next batch.
