hydro, zeb thx

wh, we gotta talk, i can explain plenty and ez, and ill b nice as ive read uve had a bad day on the boards

Yes its small. The thing is....Rock can't stop playing with them....fixing them.....helping them.....pruning etc etc etc......and I think it's slowed growth way down. I've mentioned it several times but......well....you can see....sigh. I honestly think the same exact things leads to his having more males than females cause his ratios are backwards when it comes to that.

Rock you are also not supposed to be using the LL at five weeks of flower and i won't ask why you still are because you are certainly going to stop.
playing? no. fixing? um, no. helping? I thought so, been followin Opie's lead in regard to poking leaf down or over. now i did just read ur take on that particular activity. well, this whole scrog thing is brand new for me, so, i'm trying to learn.,. finally, u suggest i've been Pruning??? here's a disclaimer for u: positively no sharp instruments of any kind have been used on this grow since she was topped, none, zero, zip, zilch, nada, neit, nonononono. not this time. i learned on the thai.
actually, i have found that with the screen, i have no desire for pruning, because i have been able to poke the leaves outta the way of more budsites than i'd ever be able to clip to open up.. matter of fact, i havent even forced the dried shrivly leaf off the underside of the growth. i'm lettin her decide what she wants to do and when. so, what did i do? there was once or twice in the last week when she grew and started mashing a flower into the screen, so, i nudged that branch about 0.5-1 inch, to help save the flower. if that was bad, ok, tell me, noted and i will remember, but i woulda thought that was helping. *shrugs shoulders*

now, im not exactly sure what u mean about me causing males thru stress, thats a curious thought. As far as i understood, and maybe i am wrong (im NO expert at all, strickly a rookie, surrounded by pro's and veterans) but, i thought, (#1)a male is a male is a male, and (#2) a female, may hermire if u screw her around or have lite leaks, etc. but then (#3) there's a hermie, who automatically has the ability to go both ways and only thru tuff-love, like leave em alone and dont bother them, and the use of a product like Reverse(which i been using, per yours and DM's directions) u can keep them fem. was i wrong? and , if this is all true, then how on earth did i cause plants to b male only?
if u ask me, and some have, i think i just grabbed the wrong beans. it is a toss of the dice, a crapshoot, is it not? one of the reasons i put them in the big pots as soon as i can is so i dont mess with them too much, or so i thought.

ok, lastly, u are correct, the directions call out 4 weeks.
honestly, i goofed, i didnt plan of spraying her this last time, i was kinda on auto pilot. but, it is extremely dry in their space and the surrounding area and feed air. I have already made a mental note, previously, to not be a bonehead and spray her again, only the younger ones. but thats tomorow, i cant take back what i did yesterday. i will say that i did do the Homer "DOH!" as soon as i realized i was wetting her down, but it was too late. I coulda ran and broke out my old hair dryer from the 80's and dried her, but i thought that would possibly be stressful, so instead, i re-adjusted the fan to blow more in her direction for the day.

now, lets scroll back and talk about size. because,,,"say it with me class" Size Matters.
small, u call her small? really? i topped her twice in veg, and LST'd her still she screamed uncle, then caged her. but always there was growth. first, multiple branches and shoots. the 2 longest curl almost 1/2 way round. the 4 shorter ones are about 1/4 less, and all the low sprouts in the center are now around 1ft tall. i think (maybe wrongfully) thats a shitload of growth,,,isnt it?
hell, her trunk looks like a AA battery, then she shoots in all these directions and wraps around the whole thing.now, am i missing something, or are u just having a bad day (which is ok, but i wanna know if i'm really screwing up too)
in my opinion (and sure, i'm basing it on my only experience, 3 thais germed from beans i saved from the Mezezoic Era that took nearly 6 months each to grow) I think Galina is a monster, I'm totally as happy as i could possibly be and been thinkin how fortunate i am to have such a nice friend that she would share these beautiful beans with the likes of a loony-tune like me so i could have such a beautiful girl of my very own. I spend time just looking at her and talking to her, telling her how much i love her and love how she looks n smells. i'd prolly make a human girl cry with emotional happiness if i said 1/2 as much to one of them as i say to Galina every day. E-V-E-R-Y-D-A-Y.

let me make one last point clear. I already planned on waiting a lil longer than u originally told me she would take. why, you ask? because i did top twice, because i LST'd her to 98% horizontal, because i caged her, because i messed with the lite height, because i am still learning more everyday, because,,,,,ive only grown thai so far, and will be patient, because thats what i'm used to. so, im willing to give her time to catch up. im cool with it.

now, i stand ready to take any correction or new learning u feel i need. but lets make sure i'm screwin up first, otay?

and fwiw, i have spent (wasted) the last 3 days trying to fix my truck, which consisted of searching for a specialized tool i did not own already, that alone wasted 2 days, then broke the part with the new tool right after buying it, only to drill it out, which i could have done 3 days ago and avoided the expense.:wtf:
the urgency here is i was supposed to drive 4 hrs, one-way for an interview. i havent worked in months, so, im bored and crawlin the walls, now instead, ive rescheduled and now need to rescedule again tomorow, cause i wrenched all day and ache head to toe, only to find out, 95% finished, that i need another special part, because i must cut off one of the old parts, because its rusted so badly. and i realized today how out of shape i currently am and every muscle in my body is screaming in pain like im about 187 years old. so, ive had a stellar day or 3, as you may be able to deduce.

so, beat me up if u must, but i might be a lil punchy.

ok, so,,,WAZZZUP?!:wtf: ouch, even saying that hurt
