Hey CCIE, that was just what I needed, a good laugh. The thought of you standing there with a stick of butter was pretty funny.

Yeah, the garden turned out to be inconvenient for a couple reasons. The dimensions were such that I couldn't use the narrow cabinet I bought first. The baskets are another. Care and feeding isn't the easiest either. I need to risk damaging leaves and or stems to get my gallon jug close enough to the access hole. To remove the cover on the access hole, I need to pull the plug too (no power button). Otherwise water, water everywhere.

My next grow will be in a aeroponics garden I make myself. This was mainly to get me started, and give me an idea of how they work. I've seen enough plans on here to get me going with my own design. If I stick with these same bag seeds, I may go with SCRoG or LST since, as you pointed out, they have an affection for growing tall. As for this time, I really don't have anyone to assist with making the changes you suggest. This is top secret, except for the thousands of readers on this board. Nobody in real life knows about this. This was to minimize someone using it against me, or leading to a break in.

The other suspected male is also the same one getting fried before it's time, due to it's height. The remaining two seem short enough to take the heat. They'd better turn out to be female, or I might be trying your baking suggestion, CCIE. I've read many posts on here about making some use out of the males. I can't say that I buy into the thought of getting anything from them. Biologically, they don't have that much THC. Catching them early means that they haven't developed much in the flower department (hopefully) either. But given my lack of something to smoke, and how long it'll take to get another crop going, I might be tempted. I appreciate the suggestion. I just don't think I've gotten that desperate yet.

I don't think I'll need to stand over the remaining plants with a stick of butter. I think snapping my latex gloves might scare them into the correct gender.
joe-grow Reviewed by joe-grow on . joe-grow's first grow Long time reader, first time poster. Long time smoker, first time grower. So, I've finally decided to take the plunge into growing. I spent the last month just reading up on the postings here, as well as some magazines I picked up at a local hydro store. This board was the most helpful, and I hope to repay that help with a grow report which I hope helps at least one other person out. During this time, I'm sure I will ask for assistance from some of you out there, and I hope that I am Rating: 5
