beleive it or not, you can make monsters of two or three females, i had five with twenty+ main branches, all with their own branches, they completley filled a 3x8x4h cab! topping and tying are nothing but good with bb :thumbsup:

Those sure look like some nice buds growing on that limb there Scarlet. Somehow some of those same blueberry seeds ended up at my house so I will be trying a few on my next grow as well. :thumbsup:
Mark the russian stuff is very indica. It does terrific with topping but as I learned with my last grow make sure to give plenty of root room. My last grow was also the first time I tried to bend it and lst'ing it was a big mistake with it's short stocky branches. It did not do well with lst at all so I'd probably leave that off it's list if I were you.
Its a great smoke...a good friend of mine who's smoked for about 20 years took one hit off my first batch and said it was the strongest weed he'd ever smoke--one hit wiped him for about 45 min. (I think that also has something to do with smoking fresh-grown weed however......you'll never go back!) and I use it in cookies etc cause I think it's got a great high (although it can get a little couchlock)
Thanks for the report, weedhound..I've been kinda curious what it was like. I was wanting to put some of them outside and may still end up doing so...but there's a freeze warning here this weekend so I'm glad I haven't done it yet..been like 70+ the past couple weeks, some very strange weather.Quote:

flowers are doing well...I expect to see some buds to start forming next week sometime. 8 days into 12/12 now.
Started making flowers...OCD has been getting the best of me with them...they grow nearly before my eyes and I find myself spending hours around them messing..oh well..:)
my topped plant had a few of the lower growth's get big and are just as thick and tall as the top tops...are they going to give me similar results? I know you can identify which one I'm talking about..lol
the other two are untopped but I tried tieing them horizontally as much as I could and it seems to have okay results thus far..
Upon looking them over top to bottom earlier..on one of them I noticed a couple preflowers that made me cringe..didn't look like female preflowers, but not quite male..I don't want any more fucking hermies, I'm tired of it..they really haven't had any constant stress...I hope they stay female completely through and give me lots of pretty flowers to smoke..
I may do another update at the end of the week, I'll probably have better buds then..a bit more developed I'm sure..no bud porn yet..this is all kiddie porn, but they are growing fine :rasta: :thumbsup:
Mark how many days are you into flower? Your plants look REALLY good btw....very nice color and lots of good growth. It' probably too late for this grow but I use a product called Reverse (formerly Feminiser by DutchMaster) to combat hermie-ism and have had excellent results with it. Fairly expensive though and you have to use it in the first week of 12/12. Just some cud to chew on. ;)
Now are 12 days into flower. I've heard of similar products to relieve stress and may look into using something for the future. Price isn't so much of a concern as long as the results are promising though...Quote:

My first growing season I started with 80 plants....long story but ended up with about 6 females at harvest.....plus another 5 that were in my hydro set-up. Out of those 11, four of them hermied. Two I was able to pinpoint the reason and two I was not.
My hydro guy recommended this to me.....and he's God in my book so I bought it. Out of my next two grows I ended up with a total of 10 plants....0 hermies. And yes, I stressed them. I never mean to but somehow I always do.
Because I was planting female seeds this grow I asked him if there was anything special I should do since I know they tend to hermie more and he said the only difference was to make sure to use the feminiser (which I do anyway). So something to think about......but too late for this grow.. It's a foliar spray that you spray on your plants on day 1 of 12/12 and then repeat on day 10.
sounds like some good stuff to use..I'll certainly be trying to get ahold of some of it within the next couple months.Quote:

Rub your armpit on them. That always makes me feel womanly.
