she is the one that looks like a bud bunch of hairs and i squeezed a little and she seems a littlehard in the middle I gave it some gravity the other day so we will see how that works out for it :jointsmile:

[marcaka]

she is short and stout... nice green color nasty (wonderful) smell and pretty packed.. although rather small... anyone think I should trim back some of the bigger leaves?

[marcaka]

not too bad kinda one long thin cola all down through but not too much big growth on the branches... getting tall however...

[marcaka]

Hey all.... just noticed on the main cola of one of my ladies it almost looks like it is a hermie and starting to sprout male sacks... but the more I look it almost looks as if it is female hairs coming out.... the last picture is what i am seeing I picked it from the cola... I figured the pics are hard to see but maybe this would help... any advice on it would be really appreciated!

Looks like a nanner to me......

[marcaka]

haha I know its hard to tell.... it def looks like a male pollen sack forming... but this late in flower?? Now I am affraid that my ladies are all going to be pregnant

Looks like nanners popping out on your main cola. How long until they finish? If its not that long it wont matter. Just pick them off and let her finish.

Takes a few weeks to make seeds.

Yep, Nanners, you can keep picking them out if your close to harvest. Spray her with water first to knock down pollen before trying to pluck em.


Where'd you get the genetics? Seed bank, Bag seed grow, or clone?

Def appreciate all of your comments.... I have been picking them.... I am in week 8 of flowering... so they are finishing up... 2 out of 4 the trichomes are getting nice and cloudy (this is one where the nanners are coming from) good call on the water! Def appreciate little tips like that!

Not sure on the strain it is bagseed.... I do have a few questions on harvest....
I have advanced nutrients Final Phase that I am going to use pretty soon (says use 7-10 days before harvest) to clean all the nutes out... anyone have any experience with this? Also I am thinking of putting them in 36 hrs darkness before I cut.

I have seen some people hang them once cut with the leaves still on... I dont know why, unless it is to get all resin production? I always trim my ladies and then hang. Any ideas on which is better?
