i dont know if this is the right question for the section but if you have two strains lets say strain a and strain b, how do u chose witch is the "father" n who is the mother?
i am still wondering about how to choose wat strain the mother n witch is the father anyone shine some light on that, here are the pics from today u can tell how i screwed up the one plant....the other one still looks good though
oh i forgot the first pic are the leaf that came off the top i tryed to clone them 4 days ago, i have no idea wat going on i though they would be dryed up now:s
i installed my hps security light today, should i put them in flowering or wait a bit longer?
update still on 18/6
Hey Mr Blue,
You can't force your plants to reproduce (Flower) until they are sexually mature. When you start from a seed, just like people, or elephants, or garlic, the organism that you are husbanding has to progress through all the nessessary stages of growth in its life cycle. First of all, take a deep breath, hold it for a couple seconds, then exhale slowly, through your nose right onto your plants. Next, congratulate yourself because you're doing a helluva good job. Then...RELAX...(Oh yeah, that breath thing was for you not the plants)remember your plants know what to do it's you who doesn't. Let them grow. The more growth tips (the ends of the branches) there are, the more colas you'll get. And you can't get growth tips without, yep, growth. I 'aint tryin' to sound condescending or anything like that, and if I get a little bit preachy, I apologize in advance, and likewise, if you tell me to "pound sand you pompous son of a jackal I'll take no offence, but if you don't know the answer to something that I do, I will give freely that which was freely given to me. Know this and believe it :thumbsup:. OK, we can't do anything until we know which ones are the little girls. And we can't find that out until they are mature enough to show us. The sign that they're old enough is alternating nodes. The node is where the petiole(s) (leaf stem(s)) are growing out of a branch. On an immature plant, each node has 2 leaves, one on each side. As the plant matures, you'll notice that the new nodes have only one leaf, and as you follow the branch out toward the tip, the leaves come out on alternating sides. Alternating Nodes, work that phrase into the nezt verbal intercourse :eek: (hey, minds out of the gutter please, I said verbal ;) ) you have (about growing the ganja, that is :rasta: ) and check out the looks you get. Anyhow, until the nodes alternate, your job is to get the plants to the bushiest managable size you can. And that will happen at the time it's supposed to, so relax a little.
Later
