Well unfortunately I may have been premature in calling them all females. The 'calyxes' I thought I saw on afghani and blue dream 2 just haven't had any hairs pop out. The plants have been under 12/12 for 15 days now but Blue dream 3, golden goat and holy grail 69 have been showing pistils for about 7-8 days.

-all 5 are females
-all got the final prune, basically anything less than 9-10" from the dirt that didn't make it to the canopy.
-co2 inlet tubes adjusted about 8" (they were about 4" inside the canopy)
-4 outside plants rotated 180 degrees
-those pink things are duct tape lol. I needed them for band aids and I didn't have any and my girlfriend only had pink. They should all be coming off in the next 10 days or so.
-my next grow I will switch back to the scrog. I scrogged my first grow of 4 plants but only topped once and didn't supercrop...these are all topped atleast twice and super cropped and that's way more tops than I had on the first grow, so a combination of techniques is in order

Well I'm not sure it's purely a golden goat...picked up an 1/8 last time I was in Denver and found the seed in a bag. As I understand golden goat was an 'accident' from Kansas, so I didn't know if someone is making seeds now or if it is still a clone only strain...anyways it was a private grower so I guess what I'm saying is, unless it self-pollinated, it might not be a purebred lol...
Either way, Im pretty pleased w them.

Thanks lisa!

It's easy to keep a tiny room clean haha. Next summer after I expand the lab we'll see how clean it stays then...I'll pull a chair up w ya my dude, should be done stretching soon so I think after this week it will just be feeding and watching out for critters. Luckily in this cold climate critters aren't too big of a deal.

Very true. I can barely get myself to pay 70 or so a pack let alone 100+. Not to mention their "special edition" $250 ones or whatever the breath crosses were.

If they won't show their grow they must be ashamed of pollen chucking. It is what it is but I wouldn't want to pay those prices even for worked lines.

I'll admit I'd probably pay good money for a pack of Stomper though.

Fortunately, or unfortunately for my dogs haha, we have plenty of wolves and lions and coyotes and bobcats and whatever else that keep the rodents down. It is weird though, I haven't seen a fly out and about in like two months, but every morning it seems like I find some of these weird spiders munching on some dehydrated flies...I guess they find dinner and come enjoy it on the warm leaves lol...VTMi'kmaq don't you have some pet spiders too?

-rotated
-watered w pH of 6-6.5ish (2 gallons)
-temps are staying upper 60s to lower 50s at night (heaters at 40min/hr at night, 20min/hr day)
-highest humidity has been 48% (need to get a humidifier before harvest, the humidity was in the lower 40% when I hung the last harvest to dry and they got too crispy too fast)

I have a question though... Today is day 18 of 12/12, although the pistils have really only been prevalent for about 8 days. Should I consider my plants to be in day 18 of flower or day 8? I'm not being impatient, just wondering as far as stretching. My tallest plant is 21" from the light, and I'd like to keep it no closer than that, however I only have about a foot to go before the hanging brackets on my LED run out of space and I need to determine another mounting solution...

Here's the ol' homestead, and some little fucker got my last pumpkin, I'm assuming raccoons. Pretty surprised at the lack of snow this late.
