hsfkush,I gotta get that camera wire,all mine have been having bud sites by 4 weeks best I can remember.
My first grow was 4 seeds out of a bag of blueberry,it was through in 8-11 weeks. I think some strains will take longer,but haven't done enough to know for sure,noob.
I don't know what is doing it for me but I like it. I don't top,list or anything like that,but I run the fan on a strong setting and mine get several tops.I been wondering for a while if it was the fan doing this.
What do you think?Peace

^^^Even 4 weeks from seed is kinda late. What were you growing that took 6-8 weeks to flower? This was 12/12 from seed?^^^
Well, I've only started growing 7 plants initially. 1 had to be chopped as it was 46inches tall and still stretching(bag seed sativa), I'm a complete novice still so I've no clue on LST and I didn't top it.
Cannalope Kush unfortunately hermied on me which was my own fault.
O.G Kush(Reserva Privada) was a bit flimsy and my dog got in my grow room and kind of chewed it up when the plant was 2 weeks old ¬_¬

The others that I've done are both C99 and Lemon Kush, both by Female Seeds. I'm guessing that it's partly because of my medium, it's just compost from a local gardening store. The C99 has been going now for 14 weeks and the Lemon Kush for 10 weeks. Perhaps it's my lighting(200w CFL 2700k + 2x 30w 2700k).

I don't know really.. Lol. I've not harvested anything myself yet, I'm still waiting for my first harvest to come to fruition which, as long as everything goes well, my C99 will be the first. It's about 4-6 weeks into flowering, so should be ready in a further 2-4 weeks.

Anyway, I've ordered new medium, pots, trays, digital thermometer, ph tester and stuff so I should in theory be able to get everything right now.

Edit: Oh it could have been because of the light leak I had in my grow closet which has now been taped up.

I associate people with pictures too, doesn't help that between cars, cannabis, and other things, I'm on like 40+ forums ... and random people even use the same pics, makes it more confusing.

Found out 2 of my 3 plants are now female. I was planning on breeding so I'm hoping the other is a male. If it isn't, then it would be a 1/8 chance of getting 3 females. This would lead me to suspect hermi genetics...fuck.

why would you come to that conclusion?
3 of 3 females isn't super uncommon from reg seeds, but because they are also bagseeds, it is usually that they were created from a hermi. The only other way bagseeds are usually created are from outdoor crops in which pollen from an un-removed male travels and pollinates a few pistils on a large female. This is why an ounce may have 5-10 seeds, whereas if the entire female was pollen there would be 100's if not 1000's.

Doesn't the term "bag seed" derive from having seed in the bud from the bag you purchased from your local dealer?

That would mean the plant has hermied, right?

Hello guys, I kinda burned the top of a cola with the light today on a plant which is in it's first week of flower(Lemon Kush), what adverse effects could this have? The plant its self is not too badly damaged, but the small thin leaves coming out of the buds are all burned to a crisp and the white pistils are now grey/dark brown. Could this effect the overall yield of said cola or could it stress the plant out too much? I'm hoping she'll be fine though. I'll get some pictures when the lights come on.

Edit: Also, an update on my C99, she's so incredibly frosty and smells incredible. I have recently just ordered my digital microscope, so I'll see if I can show her off via that as my phone camera, although it takes great photo's, doesn't do it any justice.
