[nomadherbman]

here are some pics taken yesterday june 24th......plants started may 26th

[nomadherbman]

some more pics at various times in vegs

[nomadherbman]

more......

[nomadherbman]

if you look at the first set of pics and the first pic you'll see one huge one standing out over the rest...somehow it managed to grow up to 3 feet in 30 days! another on is 2 foot 9 and the rest are just about 2 feet

[nomadherbman]

yeild????? anyone have guesses??

[Zandor]

Finished, dry, cured buds.......I would guess around 8 oz not including stems or leafs.

[nomadherbman]

ya i was thinking about the same,, tho im shooting for a pound...right now it looks like all 20 are females so atleast an ounze on each and ill have more than enough

umm the one blueberry thats growing out of control is getting too damn big.. i was wondering if i cut out the bottom of the pot and put it outside in my moms garden in some nice soil, well it continue to grow, i would expect soo????

[nomadherbman]

and this is my first grow...how do they look????

[rastabill89]

wow man they look awesome

Ok there are 20 there? I did not realize there were that many. With that many plants you should end up around 25-30 oz that's just over one oz pr plant and average is really 1.5 oz pr plant.
By changing the environment you risk some shock to the plant. Bend it down out of the way if you need to. The full light cycle is different for outside and inside growing. It would take longer to finish if you move it outside...but that's not always a bad thing. Then again you open it up to bugs and spiders too.
No right or wrong answer only choices to make.

[nomadherbman]

ok im going to leave that one there and bend it some....i was also thinking that once it really starts buding top the colas off to give the lower half more light and space to grow????

rastabill89..where in NH....i lived in exeter and portsmouth for a good 6-7 years

[nomadherbman]

two males showed themselfs today.......one just happened to be ,with my luck, the biggest

[Zandor]

two males showed themselfs today.......one just happened to be ,with my luck, the biggestGood for you then...From what I have noticed from years of observation is when growing from seeds the maleâ??s always seam to grow the quickest and the largest first.

I believe this is true in nature as well. The idea that nature will find a way and gravity is one of those ways.

Think about a tall male plant towering over the rest of the crop. A little breeze comes along and the pollen is released. It falls to the ground to pollinate the shorter plants...the females and there you goâ?¦life found a way.

I don't know if this is true but it what I have noticed over the years. 1 in 10 turns out to be female and a quick, tall growing plant. The rest of the time itâ??s the male plant that's first to grow to height so it can release the pollen.

Any opinion?

Just curios what you all may have observed, if you ever noticed the occurrence in the first place,

[nomadherbman]

you know, your right, it makes perfect sense

[HARDDON]

In theory, it makes perfect sense.

But it flies contradictory to the factor of environmental stresses on the sex of the plants.

So much is being learned / speculated about heat, medium, lights and water playing a role in determining sex. Stress produces males.

I am convinced final sex is determined between weeks 3 and 4.

But I am also convinced I am the best pussy eater on the planet... :D

[nomadherbman]

my fathers growing skills are very old school and he still thinks stress is good for a plant and that high heat will promote more female than male....ha i always have to remind him to be gental with my girls

i fell that a seed is already one sex or the other,,,,but that you can change (hermy) with optimal conditions

[EverydayJunglist]

lookin good nomad......

Many believe stressing the plant 48 hours before pulling it increases thc production.

[harmonicminor]

so can bringing bringing it out in the cold for like 15 minutes a couple times a day as long as theres enough buds on it. the plant will produce more thc to keep it alive. thats why hunters find plants in the late fall when theres snow on the ground and the only green left is the buds and evergreens.

[Zandor]

Sex is determined early in the seedling stage when the cotyledon leaves form. Light, temperature, nutrients all play a roll in determining sex. There are products available on the market that affects the RNA of the seed and increase the chance of female plants.

In 48 hours before you harvest will have very little affect on the final outcome of the plant. By then either there or itâ??s not. If you are looking for higher THC% itâ??s more dark then stress. Dark is not stress the same way heat is.

Moving from cold to hot will stress the plant and may have an adverse affect like hermie.

[nomadherbman]

ok well ive found 6 males so far......the 16 left are female!! except for 3 that arent showing quite yet

[Zandor]

Clone for the next round

[AandKdaddy]

Can you help me to achieve that please?????

[Zandor]

cloning? It's not that hard. The hard part is deciding how to root the clones. My prefered method is to use an Aero-cloner. How are you planing to root your clones?

[nomadherbman]

just an update...

11 were female, ive harvested 6 so far and got 423 grams

[LOC NAR1958]

Way to go man. Show us some pic's if you can. I just took my 6 girls down and been up all night trimming. I don't think I did as good as you, but maybe alright, we will see. Is that dried and cure wieght. I'm going to post my pic's tomarrow, oh wait it is tomarrow. got to get some sleep. later man. Oh yea what size light are you running ? I got a 400 hps and mh conversion bulb with a little more side light.

[nomadherbman]

ya thats the dryed weight... im ussing a 1000 watt hps in a 3 x 3 area

[Max Blast]

At 423 grams for 6 plants that works out to about 2.5 ounces per plant.

Are you saying that is "fully dried bud weight" or is that counting some leaves?

If you actually got 2.5 ounces of fully dried bud per plant that is VERY impressive. You do have a lot of light for a 3'x3' space but still it is impressive.

regards,
Max Blast

[nomadherbman]

will given there are still few leaves on the buds, but they've been trimmed...it seems like all the light energy went into the 6 plants while the other 5 were dormant, since ive cut down the 6 the other five are shooting of real well
