Is this a cola

[privatepile]

My 1st grow and my plants are in flower.

Im just wondering if this is a cola and is this where the smoke comes from

Yes, a little one, and yes. Generally the term 'cola' is applied to a continuous mass of buds forming on a primary stem. Most people would just say that's a bud.

Ah thats fine i was wondering the difference between a cola and bud.

Hope fully the other plant will start to show sex soon.

They are both on 12/12 lighting.Although the other plant nearly suffocated as the soil level was to low.

i also added some perlite.

My gf was just looking at the page and told me

Cola- Non alcoholic
Bud-Beer

its a bud, but will become part of a cola.
if you cut that out of a cola,i would be a bud.

->like stink said.

SALADFINGERS! ahhahhaaa love the avatar

Its a hermie.

I found balls lower down the plant

[tha_green_ghost]

can't you just snip the balls off before they open?

[klondike_bar]

castrate them often, but once you feel overwhelmed if there are too many, it becomes a risk. use your judgement


thanks for the avatar love socks!

It was a male that went hermie.Full of balls and 1 bud.

I took all the leaves and balls and buds of the plant,left it by the fire for the day until it was crispy.

I then had enough for 2 joints.I smoked them and got a nice little buzz.

So when it is a female plant,harvested at the right time,just using the buds that have being drien and cured the stone should be :hippy:

I have 1more plant growning and she is fully female so i didnt want to risk pollinating her and getting less bud.

how did you grow the plants ? like from start.. and when did u use or if u did use ferts ? pics of a full female would sufice:stoned:

[privatepile]

I know where i went wrong it was

Wrong Lights at start
Overwatering
Underwatering
Fert Burn
In correct ferts
Heat stress
No fan for a while
Incorrect PH balanced water
No perlite mixed in soil at the start
Plant pots not filled to the brim so the plant was suffocating

So i was surprised when they still grew.Im 100% sure my other plant is a female.

This is the reason i only planted 2 plants at the start i knew i would make mistakes and i didn't want to kill a lot of plants.

Its amazing they still grew but white widow is some hardy plant

At least i learnt from my mistake.

Looking forward to the next grow ;)

Cool, then it's worth sacrificing a couple plants in the interest of getting the bulk of your mistakes out of the way early.
Now, on to bigger and better things! :D

I would recommended all new growers do the same thing.You can read and read and read but you still have to try a 1st grow before you will improve your growing skills.

A bit like reading a book on how to drive a car.

did u find that plant ? where did u get it lol how mdid u grow
