Strange phenomenon or genetic mutation?

So, those WWxBB sprouted pretty fast. What are you using? Treated rockwool, jiffy cubes, a third thing? Are those Herbie's WWxBB?
Well it was just the seeds that sprouted...probably won't pop through the soil till tomorrow...I put them in a wet paper towel...stuck that in a sandwich bag and set it on top of my satellite receiver (nice and warm) First seed cracked open in less than 12 hours...2nd was 24 hours. Just put them in straight Fafard (soil less...lol) till they pop thru and are ready to be put in the ocean forest and my soil less (lol) mix...Got them from Herbie's!!

Sounds perfect. Seedlings love the warmth. Best $10 I ever spent was on a little heating mat to throw under the propogator. I used the top of an HID before that. My wwxbb's are about 4 weeks old, and are really starting to take off. Excited to see how we do. I bet your foaming at the mouth to get the cab finished.

Foaming at the mouth...chomping at the bit...but still just chasing my own tail it seems...lol...it's out of my control for the moment...I'm practicing patience (I think that's what they call it anyway) ;)

That's completely normal for mid to late flowering. N deficiency. Which is something we don't really mind seeing near harvest. Mid to High N levels during the stretch (first two weeks of flower) are welcomed, but after that, you want to shift focus to your P-K levels. Your girls look beautiful as hell to me, man. Keep it up.

Thanks Pinworm! :)
I'm 5 weeks into the flip...the one is getting pretty dense and will finish relatively quickly I believe...but she's yellowing out something fierce...you can't see it in the pics though because they're just bud shots...my little freak has me very concerned. She's going slowly, she needs to be able to hold on for much longer than that first one, I'm thinking a good 3 weeks longer...worries me!!

Hmmm. Just got a chance to see that pic on the PC, instead of a thumbnail on my tiny phone. She looks pretty yellow. If you still have a few weeks left, maybe feed with a small dose of camg+, but only if that's something you haven't already tried. You could be locked out, and you don't need additional problems. The affected leaves won't recover, but you'll have helped eliminate the deficiency.

Pretty girl looks hungry in my opinion, but who am I to tell! Damn near all of mine turned yellow because I was afraid I was going to over feed. I started feeding more and have some color again.

The flower looks very nice! It's like smello vision for me... I think I will be purchasing a carbon filter soon.

I haven't shared this plant lately...she's my Eli Manning...the one that's not as good as her siblings...stretchy thing barely fit before transplanting to 5 gallon...was supposed to tie her down a while ago but I just kinda let her go...either I do it tonight or she'll be living in my shower with CFL's on her for the duration...

So I germinated 2 of my WW X BB seeds. One sprouted in less than 12 hours, the other more than 24. Put them in pots and that fast girl popped out in less than a day. I shall call her AP :) I can just BARELY see the other one getting ready to peek her little head out...

I now have everything I need to complete my cabinet, less the random fittings that I may have overlooked...got some panda film to line it with (10 X 25 WILL NOT be the easiest size to work with)

Anxiously waiting for lights on so I can see how my girls are doing...I think they're much happier since the transplant :)

are those the feminized seeds? are you still doing the soil less vs soil?
Yes and I don't know...right now they are in Fafard with perlite because I didn't have my FFOF at the time I needed to pot them. I figure I can switch one out but I'm wondering...if this transplant pulls my girls through, maybe I should just ride that train this grow...avoid the chemical nutes? I feel like I'm picking out shoes ;)

image.jpgMy triploid is taking off...she's a happy girl now :) And I'm guessing the lower leaves that yellowed so bad on the other one will never recover so taking that into consideration...she's looking happier too.
