First Grow - Rubbermaid / CFLs

[JohnnyRico]

Looks male to me. Good job though!

That one plant is definitely a male, and you'll probably want to yank him out of there, especially if the other one shows female parts.
They're looking healthy!
If you stick a thermometer in there & try to get the temps down into the mid-70s to low 80's, you will see some serious improvement...
Rock on!

I agree.....its a male......dooobster is the one that told me my plants two weeks before they showed balls.....id trust him....

another thing.....if you want those temps down.....remove the tinfoil or mylar and paint the inside white......my temps rarely go above 82F and i live in a very hot place.....very hot...temps are like 96F outside.....oh i mean 96F at 7am.


PS....my ch9 grow is in a rubbermaid box

Thanks for the tips guys, ill have to get a thermometer in there and see what the temps are at.

Just another update for you all, that one plant was definately a male. The following day i noticed alot more clusters up and down the stem so I yanked it out of there.

Here are some pictures of the remaining plant that I have. I think it might be a female! :jointsmile:

Let me know what you think, and if you think its indeed a female plant.

Hey guys, figured id post up another update, so far I think the plant is doing great. I have started to notice a tiny bit of brownish coloring on the tips, but not bad at all. Still havent had a chance to check on the temps. Hopefully I can do that in a day or two. I'll let you all know as soon as I find out what they are.

Looks good. I just started my first grow today and I kinda have the same set up. Did you adjust keep your cfls at the top of the box or did you raise them as the plant got bigger?

[Ovrm1nd]

i left the cfls at the top of the box throughout the grow, i also just added 2 homemade carbon filters to help reduce the smell, hopefully they will work

Hey all, another update for you, the plant looks great. I can't wait until she is ready to harvest. Another month or so to go ( i think ) :jointsmile:
