damn rocwool all of the seedlings that I have in rocwool just look horrible, I may ditch them all..... the first batch were started in rocwool, but they were started in 320z containers and later transplanted to the smaller cups, they are suffering bad from overwatering and and growing at a snails pace its really ridiculous so it may set me back a couple of weeks but in the long run i think i will be better off trying to nurse these few plants is not worth it, I may transplant them all and put them in a window and see what happens, i love experiments.....:joint:

that guy on grass city has not done his homework. hermies dont produce feminized seeds. you have a most likely chance of getting hermie seeds. but in reality they can be anything, that is not a stable way to make new plants. i have tried and wasn`t to succsesfull.
the reason the femenized seeds cost so much is all the work that went into stabilizing the strain. look up hybrids or f1 seeds and see the amount of work, it could take a year to produce good seeds

fyi ohters right here at riu seem to think the same thing doesnt make it true but does make it seem more and more possible....just a thread i stumble upon :joint:

best of my knowledge 80% or better would qualify......and would be good enough for me if I could get at least 8 girls for every 10 seeds I plant :hump:

nothing major guys everything looking ok one of the rocwool plants is still looking sick but a few of the others are trying to bounce back... tried to get a pic of the pistils on the slow shower.... so for a recap the first atch of 5 seeds produced 4 females (one that hermied due to light leaks) and one male, not bad so far we will see if those number hold up....... so I have three that are flowering now, so I guess we will see what happens in the next 6-8 weeks should be interesting

another female showed herself today that makes 3 of the first 5 the other 2 havent havent shown yet I am not surprised since those were my worst looking 2 but I fim'd them both and they are recovering nicely. I am gpoing to start a few more seeds today and get the box full I think I can run 18 cups if I stuff them in there... I never posted a pic of the back of my box it shows the exhaust that I ill be adding some sort of filter too and the 2 intakes on the bottom one of them now has a pc fan pushing fresh air in you will see I used those painters mask on my intakes figured it would help keep dirt and dust out of my enviorment.......:joint:

bigd921 how long is it going to be till your getting a regular amount of smoke ?

I read in your post that your aim was to get 1/4 to 1/2 oz of weed each week so roughly how long is it gonna take till things are running like clockwork if you know what i mean ? :blsmoke:

Oh by the way i love the idea of the drying box being run off the air out of the growbox. Recycling air. fucking awesome :blsmoke:

How many seeds are going to be used for each harvest? How are you going to get a constant supply of seeds? :D Just out of curiousity.

my goal is to have it all dialed in within 90 days.....and to me it just made sense why not use the warm moving air for a practical purpose.....:joint:

the number harvested will fluctuate, but my estimates are based on a 50% male to female ratio, with the current batch of seeds I am using I am getting about 80% female so I will have to crunch the numbers after I harvest the second round of plants....as far as seed production I already have enough to keep this going for at least a year lol...however, I plan to attempt so methods I have read and posted about and create my own feminised seeds
