Johnnys first time

[JohnnyRico]

This morning I woke up in to this weird clipping sound. My ventilation pipe system had collapsed. The end of the pipe had hit to the fan and clipped one of the fans blades off. The fan went to unbalance and start to made that noice. I had to break up the whole ventilation system, dismount the fan and glue it together. Now I've made a bigger space for the end of the pipe and built it better. I also added one more half shelve to my closet for the nutes etc.

Plants are doing fine. I'm still going with 3ml of nutes to 1l of water. Thats 2ml to 1l under the recommendation. Im afraid to add more nutes. I dont want to burn them. Im not seeing any signs of nutrient shortage or over feeding. I topped one of the plants just to see how it affects compared to the other plants.

Nothing special to report. The plants have started drinking this week. I added water first time in three weeks. They had used ~6 liters of water so far. I also raised the lamps by a notch.

:S5: weekend for everyone!

good work ,they look healthy and happy cant wait to watch them grow :jointsmile:

[JohnnyRico]

Thanks guys!
Im getting some preflowers on the plants. One looks to be male and the rest is too soon to tell. How should I remove the male plant(s)? I dont belive I can pull it out so that all the roots come up too. Should I just cut the plant from the base and leave it like that? Will the remaining roots start to rotten and cause problems? Or should I try to remove all the roots from male plants?

Sorry for the language, but yes. Fuck this shit! I've now removed two males from the system and last one seems to be male too...:cursing: Im not giving up though. What now? Im thinking of cuttings, but every grower I know aint in that stage that I could get some. So I have to deal with the seeds and take the risk that they all could be males again. I already put bunch of seeds in to germinate.

And my dog died this week. :sadcrying

Sorry about your loss, but I've been following your grow.

The plants looked really healthy. It's too bad they were males.
