One healthy sprout and one short bushy plant...still early, but I think short and bushy is turning male...I hope not!
Short and bushy turned out male, so it's outta there...the new sprout is still in vegging state, so I returned the light schedule to 24/0 and planted a new seed...by Wednesday night - Thursday morning I should have 2 healthy sprouts, bathing in plenty of Blue spectrum.
Not much luck with this grow: 2 males, one non viable...waiting on those 2 and hoping they grow into healthy girls. 5 seeds left on standby...
u might wana clean out the cab since those 1st two were male u might got some pollen floating around in there turning em male
I checked, none of the sacks seemed to have burst so we're good there. The UFO seemed a bit of an overkill in such a small cab, LED's are supposed to run warm...it was getting pretty hot in there!Quote:

Two healthy sprouts (again) I'll wait for the two of them to have their 2nd set of leaves and initiate 12/12!
Oh yeah, the new tally is out of 10 seeds, 4 germinated, one was a dud, out of the 4, 2 turned male...still awaiting for the new sprouts to grow big and show signs of sex. And 5 seeds on standby! :hippy:
I won't start an official count until I initiate 12/12, I would just like those two to look a bit bushier before I do. If one turns male I won't start a new seed if the other one's a girl...I'm hoping for 2 healthy females to turn the stats around!
Both sprouts have their second set of leaves, so I hooked up the lights to the timer. The spectrum is still predominantly blue (I have a theory that most UFO's are deficient in blue spectrum) but I'll replace the middle Red & Blue bulb with an all red once the babies have begun stretching...this way I'll have 1 full red and 2 full blue bulbs.
I'm thinking I'll reintroduce the UFO in the cab once I see pistils...:hippy:
No pics...temperature under 80F so I reintroduced the UFO (replaced the middle red & blue PAR38 bulb with it).
How have you had males if you have yet to initiate 12/12?
-C
I first initiated 12/12 April 26, restarted from scratch May 10th (went back to 24/0) and re-initiated 12/12 May 18.:hippy:Quote:
