Very nice syde00, last time I checked in here they was just little button buds...looking ver ver nice! Your grow room looks nice an neet.
heh, thanks bertox :) this cabinet has its own issues unfortunatly. its a tad crowded both horizontally and vertically... i think when/if i grow this strain again i'll probably stop vegging around 8-10" instead of the 12-13 i did this time... either that or build a slightly larger box.
though i;m also kinda tempted to try doing a scrog or sog next time, i think my cfl setup would work well for that.
This is just my opinion, and it may be wrong but looking at the plant you segregated, it looks to me to be male and not a hermie. A new pic will tell for sure. Hermies look like bananas, a straight male will have balls.
Females are lookin great tho.
It is a hermie for sure, there are/were lots of white hairs along the main stem... some of them are still there, but as pollen sacks started bursting on it a week or 2 ago, most of the hairs are kinda shrivling up and retreating back into the calyxes.
it does look kinda crappy though and i have some serious doubts as to if it will produce any decent seeds... i've considered just killing it a couple times over the last week... but since it is my first hermie i figured i should just let it go as a learning experience, its not really doing any harm where it is, and i;m not too concerned about accidental pollenation of the females since i have them on seperate floors of the house, and they are almost on completely opposite light schedules as well, so theres no real risk of pollen being transferred on my hands by going between the 2 areas, since one is in its dark cycle when the other is in its light cycle... plus i always make sure i wash my hands after working with the hermie.
dododododo
the last week has been again somewhat uneventful... buds are getting and whats kinda cool to see is some of the hairs are starting to go orange like strain calls for!
anyhow, heres some updates porn! they were taken on flower day 35

wow very very nice. Im interested in your grow as your using similar lighting as I am, with those 4 40watt 2700k blubs, do you find that plants still stretched alot being that far away from the bulb, at least it looks like they are a bit far away. I have my lamps as close as I can without touching. My poor girl has been abused by light burns b.c a bulb fell on her early on, ironic how out of 5 this one had to be the girl. Anyways, Nice grow, I will deff keep my eye on it.
syde, it's strange how something so monstrous can be so dang sexy, but your Cali Orange is both. That main cola is sick, dude! And, for it to be not only so dang bulky but to have such a vast amount of trichomes? Wicked work, my friend! Congratulations to you and continued good luck!
hey guys :) thanks for stopping back in!
enhanced - they didn;t stretch at all during veg... my lighting setup did change a little through my grow but... if you look back at this pic Cannabis Forums Message Boards - Medical Marijuana, Cannabis Club, Dispensary, News that is the very last wide angel shot i took on the day i started my flower cycle, they were very very bushy back then and were only about 11-13" tall
I actually haven;t measured them in awhile, but the lights come on in about 20 or 30 minutes and i promise i'll try and remember to measure them and report back then! I'd say they are probably in the 30" area now... almost all of that stretch occured during the first 2 weeks of flower.
the 4 42w CFLs i have in the middle are a little far away, but i do also have at least 1 29w (2200 lumen @ 2700K) bulb in an aluminum reflector that is within 2 inches per plant - the exception being the one i FIMd as it is much much shorter than the other 2 and my setup doesn't really accomdate plants of varying height very well :(
jake - thanks so much! i know eh... i just can;t wait for all those hairs to turn that sexy orange colour... the ladies are going to look like they are dressed and ready for a little somethin somethin
the next couple weeks should be really interesting... they said to expect 8-9 weeks flowering time for this strain, and i'm coming up on the end of week 6, so starting to enter the home stretch :D I figure since i;m using CFLs it might be a little longer than normal though
syde, put something under your plants to raise them up. that's what i do.
