Hey Herbsman, it seems you have quite a greenhouse... Do you mind showing off what else you have in there? Any ethno-botanicals herbs whatever... Feel free to post it all in here

This is not true.  Often times rouge pollen can pollinate females indoors or out resulting in undesirable genetics.  That being said, your plant exhibits fat leaves characteristic of indoor varieties, so chances are your plant will be genetically similar to the parent.  If there was only one seed in your sack then you should hope that the grower accidentally let one of the flowering females become a hermie and produced a feminized seed.  Keep your fingers crossed.

The other plant is not MJ its just some random actual weed.  :lol: that is the first time I have had to clarify between the two.

Your safe it's not rouge pollen. (that's a funny one) Yes that does happen but if that was the case you'd have more then one seed,.

When one seed is found in a bag it is (most of the time) caused by a single male flower that the plant put out. In most cases the plant will be a female in fact I'll bet ya it is. :thumbup:

The plant shows a indica makeup so I'm sure it will be some couch-lock stuff. :omgawesome:


Speaking of rouge pollen the govt could get rid of way more plants if instead of looking for gardens in public land they just crop dusted with male pollen from hemp plants. They would take the value right out of all the seeded weed.

Well...

You can flower at any stage.  However, at this point you will likely save time and increase yield if you wait for it to show preflowers.  Preflowers mean that the plant is sexually mature and ready to flower.  If you flower before this, it takes about 10 or more days more for the plants to start forming buds.  Once your plant shows preflowers, put it inside in a 100% dark place at night for 12 hours (better too long than too short at first).  You should see your plant start to form buds within a week.

Transplant soon.  You dont wanna transplant after they start flowering, which could be any day now (easier to stress them out doing a mid flowering transplant).  They need bigger pots.

I topped the plant a while ago, my parents thought it was getting too big and our neighbours might see.

ummm i dont live in a bay, live in england. Good shout though, theres a hydro store in  the town centre.

Do you know if this plant is definately female?

Cant tell from any of the pictures, you will have to get a close up shot.

But since its taking so long for it to show sex I would say it's probably a female. (Don't quote me on that though)

yeah, sorry. post edited. i thought you were somebody else that said they were in the bay area, california. they look like they need more light. if you're worried about neighbours, start bending them. no idea on sex though. if you're really anxious to find out, take a cutting and induce flowering on the plant under a florescent light bulb. I would say this is pointless though, because most plants will be maturing this time of year and you'll be able to find out soon

The strain you are growing is not meant to grow in nature.  It has been selectively bred to be successful when given fertilizer.  Get high phosphorous bat guano and make compost tea.

She has gone into pre flower stage!
I get paid in 4 days would it be too late to go out and buy some nutrients to increase yield and THC content? (nitrogen and potassium)

checked out the video.. all I saw was a bunch of charts. Show me some actual proof. All I'm sayin is you seem to have had some problems with your plant already, and you only have the one, so you might want to go with the old school tried and true methods instead of someones theories...:shrug:
Although, I would be interested to see the results.
I'm just gonna keep feeding with 5-35-10 like I have since first sign of flower.. I'm extremely happy with her at day 18 of flowering

Actually he's spot on with the more K vs P.  I've read a bunch of articles talking about how little role P plays during flowering compared to N and K.

Actually he's spot on with the more K vs P.  I've read a bunch of articles talking about how little role P plays during flowering compared to N and K.




I can see the K for oil production and sugar/carb transfer, but I thought N was supposed to be slightly deficient during flower..and I thought P was expressly for yield..
What do you use coda?

Well my current line up is Flora Nova Bloom, Kool Bloom Liquid, and Kool Bloom Dry.

I'm going to stick with the Flora Nova for now, I'm going to axe the Kool Bloom liquid, and I'll be adding in big bud for this next run.  After this grow is over I'll hopefully have time to do a side by side comparison of the same plant to see for myself.

I can't comment on the N part, and I'm still picking through that PDF, but I do know that N is extremely beneficial to the plant during the first 2-3 weeks of flowering.  It's a fine line with the N though I'd say as extremely high concentrations of N can lead to problems with your buds.

From what I've read so far the common thread is that P is just not that important during flowering.

Quote:

Potassium is involved in maintaining the water status of the plant and the
tugor pressure of it's cells and the opening and closing of the stomata. Potassium is required in the accumulation and translocation of carbohydrates. Lack of potassium will reduce yield and quality




Going by that it can be pretty easy to see why you would want more K during flowering.  While P plays a part in energy transfer, it seems that K is what helps the plant gets it food and water.  Even that little snippet specifically states a lack of K is detrimental to your overall yield (bud size).

Now keep in mind that what you strive for is a perfect BALANCE of nutrient composition.  If you just throw large amounts of K at your plants hoping for big buds you're just going to shoot yourself in the foot.  So while it seems that P does not play as large of a role as most of us think, it still plays a role and needs to be accounted for.

Depends on what you have growing Sativa flowers longer than Indica, but it looks like yours is mainly Indica. I think that question is best asked to someone with more knowledge about flowering cycles than me.

Unfortunately my step dad was getting fed up with the smell. Personally, i love the earthy smell but I am living in his house so I had to harvest it before he destroyed it. Currently got a guerrilla grow on the go, will post a thread on it soon.
