Watered this morning with all the nutes.
That middle one in the back row is looking bushy as all hell. Looking good.
It is literally greenville inside this box.
Transplanted into 7x5 inch square pots. way bigger than the shitty pots they were in. i expect a lot of growth in the coming days as they adjust to there new homes.
While i was at the store i bought Fox Farm Tiger Bloom and will start to incorporate that soon. Also picked up 12 23w 2700k cfls. Flowering will begin in about 9 more days.
Have been running a steady 73-80 degrees since i got my inline duct fan, i love it.
Oh and some of the bottom leaves are yellow but i think its cause they were pinched between the pots when i would take them out and put them back in for waterings. im just gonna leave them on there and let them fall off.

Can anyone tell me anything about these preflowers or is it still too early?

I didnt know if i was gonna lst or not but since they were getting so bushy and not growing tall i had to bend it away from the walls, in only 2 days the bottom branches that were uncovered have grown to the height of the main stem. awesomeness. gonna tie another down in a couple of minutes. preflowers are showing on all 4 of the big plants just a matter of time before i can actually tell which kind of preflower it is. male or female. im thinking 1 more week and i should know.
ive been saying that im gonna flower them on 4/21 which is 5 days away so we will see what happens when i get to that day i guess.
square pots are the balls

fyi: back right plant is lsted one
The preflower macro looks like a pistil soon to pop. =) Keep an eye out for some faint whispy hairs. And update us asap.
beSafe:jointsmile:
the first pic at least sure looks like a pistil. the second is hard to tell any thing. Good luck with all of them.
All right ladies and gents, ive been drinking and smoking since the morning started and its going well for me. Happy 4/20 to all.
Watered the plants last night following the fox farms feed schedule. 1 tsp big bloom 2 tsp grow big and tiger bloom then a few drops of superthrive and a ph lowerer. today they look bigger and greener.
the lst method has worked out really well on one of my plants, it has like 5 tops now and all i did was bend it for like 3 days.
as far as the pre flowers go i really cant tell either way at the moment. i do believe i will start the flowering process tonight. switching the timer to 12/12 when the lights go off.
oh and i added 3 more cfls yesterday. hope it helps the yield.
let me remind you this grow is from regs bagseed
lst happening on the left one and the back right one

any comments would be welcomed, i may take some macros later but who knows it 4/20
with the fox farm feeding schedule, you should be feeding teaspoons (tsp) of grow big and tiger bloom (during the appropriate times of course). the big bloom should be TABLESPOONS (TBSP).
i've also been advised to feed them 1/2 of what's recommended twice a week for the full dosage as the can be a little "hot".
looking damn good though!

nice, just curious...
how many CFLs at what wattage (or lumens) and colour temp are you using?
I just made the switch to 12/12 and changed the bulbs. i hope they are all girls.
for veg i used 9 23w 6500k cfls 1600 lumens each
for flower im using 12 23w 2700k cfls 1600 lumens each
Still too soon to tell the sexes. Im thinking if i only have 2 females i will flip them back into veg and repot into the big paint buckets. but we will see i guess.
they all appear to have pistils but i bet balls start out looking like pistils so....
Growth has been good

Just got done watering the ladies.(crosses fingers)
Used 1 gallon of water, ph lowerer, tiger bloom and big bloom (taking into account tsp and tsbl this time) thanks shake.
The leaves on one of the plants were saging down but after some water in a spray bottle they look great.
Oh the tiny $10 bathroom air sanatizer i got has been working great thus far, cant smell a thing. But as buds form im sure it will start to stink more and more.
Still no definative sexes yet.
excellent job! they look really happy and healthy. awesome bagseed grow. can't wait to see which one's are girls.
no worries, glad to help.Quote:

look good so far, still kinda hard to tell the sexes for sure. when they woke up this morning i could tell 1 was a female for sure. but the other 4 are still too close to call. been spraying plain ph'ed water on the leaves the last few days, they seem to enjoy it.
my first identified female

thanks for all the posts guys, its nice to know people are following this.
yea, it's a girl! cigars (or blunts) for everyone. lol...
I gotta say, your camera takes awesome pictures.
congrats on the girl.
Small update. 2 plants were sagging down last night but a little water perked them up. I think I only have 1 (one) male. http://boards.cannabis.com/images/sm...m/cansmile.gif woo hoo

Glad to hear you got a bunch of girls and i too am jealous of your camera. what you got for a camera?
for the overall views im using my Nikon D300 18-200mm.
as for the close ups im using a Canon SD1000 with a 4x teleconverter.
: )
Just read up to date on the grow, and wanted to say hell of a good job thus far! I am just starting my first grow after months of reading, and can only hope things go as well for me as they have for you thus far!
Goodluck!:rasta:
unless im retarded these are balls and proper action should be taken....
http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/8591/img7220.jpg
ps..i hate this plant for going male on me, extreme death awaits
It's a depressing feeling. God knows I've been there.
how long do i have until polenation?
those are definitley balls! i can't give you a countdown to pollination, but you should chope them asap. there is no reason to keep him around unless you are gonna breed.
-shake
dude it will pollinate any time! kill it!!!q
SKY, you've got a heckuva sweet setup! Great work on those plants too - they all look fantastic. Sorry to see the male - I'm sorta hoping for 1 of my decent strains to be male so I can get some seeds this go 'round. Buying beans can get expensive.
I hope you don't mind another greeny along for the ride! Continued good luck!
Thanks for the feedback guys.
The male plant has met its maker. It was good experience though to see the balls first hand for future reference.
So now i have 3 bagseed regs plants that started March 3rd in germination and 1 bagseed mids plant that started March 20ish. I have to say the 3 look like girls to me, pistils not at all how the one i chopped looked. The mids plant is still too small to show, not expecting much from this one but i want to see the diffrence in the bud even if it yields a gram or two.
and could anyone tell me how to add tags to my thread?
Lookin good bro keep up the hard work and the ladies will pay you back :thumbsup:
~One~:rastasmoke:
~BudG~:rastasmoke::rastasmoke:
:stoned:I can confirm 2 females ATM:stoned: One of them has 4 tops from LSTing, im so glad i did that. Still undecided about another regs plant and the mids plants' pistils are too small to make out right now.
So ive basically been following the Fox Farms feeding schedule exactly and it looks like it been working quite nicely.
Getting tall, they are about 2.5 feet

Keep up the good work, they are looking beautiful!! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
After doing some reading i decided to do 75% 2700k and 25% 6500k for the flowering and i can really see the difference in just a few days.
They are doing so good. still cant tell if this other one is a male or female its taking forever to show. Like it has balls or pistils coming in but they are too small to tell at this point. The 2 confirmed females and doing so good, getting nice and hairy, ill show you in a few more days.
Oh! I just added a 15w fluro tube to the bottom of the plants, hopefully to get some of those leaves that were curling and dying to stop.
Im more into this grow then i was when it started.
Reach for the Sky

beautiful alby!
and i totally know what you mean about being more into it now! it seems like everyday i'm more and more into it.

If it has balls/nuts it is definitely a male...Usually when they show female flowers it's only a single calyx or two coming from the branch. Usually the males cluster rather quickly.Quote:

Also, I wouldn't worry too much about the bottom leaves below the canopy dying as you are using CFLs and they don't have much penetration, so that is why they will dye towards the bottom like that. Just let them die naturally and take them off from there. With CFLs a lot of times will be used with SOG or ScrOG so that they concentrate all the light at the top of the canopy.Quote:

This is Day 63 of the grow, Day 14 of Flowering. Using Fox Farm Nutes as well as Superthrive. 12 Cfls at 1600 lumens each. (Catch up for anyone who needs it)
