Here's my one surviving plant. The seed sprouted around May 15th, so it's approx 65 days post-germination. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I had to dig up the plant and move it to a new location about ten days ago. A lot of the lower leaves yellowed and fell off, but it seems to have mostly recovered since then. Any opinions? What do you guys think? Male or female? Does it look more sativa or indica? I'm guessing indica, but I could be wrong. It was just some old bag seed. I'm a little worried about the close proximity to my house (it's in a clearing in a heavily wooded area approx 20 yards north of my house). If someone were to find it or it gets spotted by a helicopter, I'm screwed. But, the other location just wasn't going to work. I've tied fishing line up around the area to deter deer -- they are thick here. So far, I haven't noticed any tracks.
Also, what would you guys recommend as far as pest control? I've noticed a few places nibbled off the leaves.
What about nutes? The only thing I've given it so far is some rabbit droppings mixed into the soil at transplant ten days ago.
Alright man... Since this is your last plant left I highly suggest you do your best to keep it alive. You really need to buy some fence to put around your plant. It doesn't have to be a huge barrier, just big enough to surround it and maybe 3 ft tall. Don't let the deer get this one
The picture is kind of far away to get a 100% identification, but it looks like it could be a female. Next time you're there get a close up on the nodes so you can be sure.
Your plant looks relatively healthy, but it could definitely use some nitrogen. She's looking a little light green. Most growers on this site will recommend something organic, but truthfully almost any general purpose fertilizer will work. If you go with a chemical fert like miracle grow I highly suggest you start with a half strength dose so you don't burn "her".
To answer a few of your other questions and concerns; it's almost impossible to tell what you've got in terms of strain. The leaves are short and fat so I'd say its more indica dominate, but it's likely a hybrid of the two.
Also, I wouldn't worry about helicopters. It's one plant and a relatively small one at that. I doubt police could even pick it out, let alone bother you about it if they did find it.
I hope that helps you out a little. Good luck with your grow.
Here we are on August 24th. It's been 101 days since germination. It's definitely a female. Whew! She's almost five feet tall now, but not as thick and bushy as I would like. I have no idea what to expect for the yield, but it will probably be small. Would be happy with an ounce or two, but not getting my hopes up. But for my first grow, it's been a fun experience. Hopefully next year will be better. I'm already scouting out new locations and learning from my mistakes.
