Yea Female flowers are better than nothing.... good point... and in my point of view its whatever you feel that makes you happy with your growing...its all about learning and this new idea of cubing sounds like a great idea because you will mostly get the best of both ends... ya feel... go keep doing what your doing...and about your plant getting eaten by your bog is how i only got one plant left as well but my iguana ate mine..lol... he jus loves marijuana.... good luck to ya and yea keep us updated.......
