they used to.. but through the process they have gotten better at it and your chances of hermies are MUCH less than they used to be... but any female can go hermie so you might as well start will all females right?? but like i said its much less of an issue now.. just get them from a good bank...

well as i told SS...this wuz my 1st experience with fem about 4months ago, with my order from above listed company...they were about a 1-2weeks out on shipping it out from order date..fem blueberry..bout 8-10 ea for seeds...i sprouted a bunch last cycle..a couple were fem, which i sold and are poliferating as moms at my buddies..i had 3 that i cut down or wuz it 2? they seemed to be male, they had little sacs above the pistals..but i regreted cutting them so early, cause they may display some odd pheno's being there femmed...so on this run i have 4 fem started , same stock , and so does SS.. i hoping that if they do display some wierd qualities, which they havent yet..(1 of 4 is a little lankier then the others right now), im going to leave them till im 100% positive this time be4 cutting any suspects down... well i got a hold of this roof tear off near my house..me and my buddy are banking a quick couple grand so im all tied up during the day..slip PM me as soon as u want..most of my strains are 1st week in bud obviously so its a good time to take veg type cuttings..hit me up on my Gmail!..no pm me actually i dont have Gmail

Its a good sounding idea...feminized seeds. Its certianly a bitch when you have plants for so long and then have to pull them.
Today i hope to see the brown van pull up to the house and bring me my light. I ordered it from HTG Supply.. I ordered on phone, should have ordered online.
They were answering there phone when I ordered but for the last 4 days no one has been there to answer. I just want the UPS tracking #. I think if i would have went online to order the paper trail would be more solid. I have a shady neighborhood and the Fking ups will just leave the shit in front of the house.
Next time im gonna make the 3 hour drive and just buy one in person.

I am going to have 2 lights a 400 and 600. I think I will take the 600 down and use it to veg some clones. I only have a small veg light and its a bitch. I only have 8 plants going.
I hope your order makes it....I am on guard today for UPS.

imho i would leave the 600 and use the 400 to veg.. it takes less light to veg than it does to flower.. so its like taking a step back... just a suggestion tho

Well-Known Member
damn it...i was high and didn't read the shit. The new thousand watt on the 8 flowering plants and the 600 on the veg....or i could go with 100 watts MH veg with 2 8 foot tube grow lights in a shop fixture, and stick both lights in flower?

i was wondering what you were talkin about.. LOL thought you were gettin a 1000w.. then i thought i was crazy.. glad im not..
i say add as much light into the flower as possible.. and use the MH and floros as a veg... if for some reason you need more light to veg you can always take the 600w out of the flower and stick it in the veg room...

Thats what i was thinking....
I got my shipment in...thats a relief...It was a discrete box inside a less discrete box.
The box look like it took a couple hits...everything inside seams fine...I fired it up to test it. It should be up tonight.

hell ya bro.. sucks the boxes got banged up a little.. but as long as the merchandise was good then its all good.. cant wait to see pics of the new setup!

It worked....I documented everything....The ballast has a warrantee.
I think HTG supply could sell more merchandise if they would recomend related items at the time of purchase. I need some venting and some fittings for the vents. I have the fixture taped up till then.
I didn't get any pics of the new set up. I already had my first incident with the new timer. The lights didn't flip off this morning and I was out so the ladies got 4 extra hours of light today.
The good news is I got an upgrade in genetics today...I was able to visit a garden in the area and get some clippings to clone. So that is done and the clones should be rooting in 10 days or so.

Hope they root!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cant wait 2 purchase an eazycloner..i know there are other bomb proff methods, hell i even put 1 of my smallest clones ever a 2incher of that heavy duty fruity 2 months back, and put in st8 into dirt, and gave it to a friend..60 days later the thing is still in veg and a 3footer..but on the otherhand this new cloner i want is the shit because of how small it is , self contained and how many sites it has..so im saving up. im glad u got some sick genes... it can make a huge diff..im a believer.

I went with the gumby method...It was really good...I don't think it was as good as bubble bag hash. It was definialy cheap though and I needed to try it.

there are a lot of little shit that places could sell on top of what you are getting if people would recommend shit.. thats why i liked wormsway... although it got almost annoying the guys there will go over EVERY step and EVERYTHING you could possibly need... now i am so anal about it i go over every inch of everything i need to purchase at once.. like 6,7 ,8 times before i actually go purchase.. nothing sucks more than if you go to install new shit and you dont have everything you need.. like duct and duct clamps.. i feel ya on the tape thing tho.. i keep a role of guerilla tape close by for every type of fix it up..
the ezcloners are the shit.. got a 30 site and never had anything under a 95% germination rate.. even fucked up the first clones i took and cut at a 45 degree angle.. dont ask why cause i dont even know why... but they still rooted... and like you said.. super compact and self contained.. i can still fit 30 1 ft cuttings in it... good choice for sure bro!
i got some bubble hash bags a borrowed and used... its only the 4 bag set.. but it worked great.. it took a LONG time tho.. spent about 4 hours from start to finish making them.. and if you use the finest micron bag... well... lets just say you might as well let it drip drain over night... it took for fucking ever... but i got almost a 1/2 ounce of hash.. and that kept me feeling REALLY good for a few days...
other thing you could do is make honey oil with it... that shit is great.. just need a wooie to smoke it out of.. or drop the shit on a bowl or whatever.. so many ways of smoking it.. but damn.. i have never been so high in my life....

i think im going for hash, i need to rewatch the gumby method, cause im too cheap to aquire bubble bags.. ya ezcloner for sure on its way...also i was going to say on topic, ditch the guirlla tape for venting and switch to that stickey ass mettalic vent tape, i had way better luch with that shit as it doesnt melt or anything when exposed to extreme heat

i keep looking at that tape when i go to home depot.. but im just gonna get duct clamps here soon and do it right... the exhaust fans i use have small flanges on them.. like 1.5" to 2"... so i really want to get some straps just to keep shit from sliding off.... thats a bitch to have happen...

listen to me SS..ive had these problems with venting for along time..i bucked up with ur advice to try gorilla duct tape, iwill never stop using this shit now that im hooked, much bettter than reg duct tape, except still not a worthy heat vent tape..be4 clamping wrap them with this mettalic vent tape, then clamp over the top of the tape, works great..infact flawless. the vent tape is just as stickey, more so, and it will not curl under high heat. very good shit.. i will always wrap my venting with this tape and then clamp..
