I agree, I wouldnt even bother trying to save it. At least you got more room for bigger buds to form on the side branches.

I understand what you guys are saying, but I have a different room on a different floor of the house and a 400 watt HPS just sitting in my closet. Why not give it a shot and see what happens?

Well pollen can travel like you wouldn't believe...

Would the yield from one plant under 400 watts of HPS be worth the $$ of running it?

I would just pull it man, but you got my support no matter what you do!

I think you can get Hermy plants from (fem seeds) because while its in the 12off 12on schedule you might have let light in while they were off and now the one that got the light now has seeds? NO? maybe

Seperate it and keep it going dude for sure.. Grab some of the pollin from the mature balls and store it in the freezer for later if you decide to make your own strains

Day 63:
August 3, 2009

(Day 21 of 12/12)

We are now exactly three weeks into 12/12 and the bud sites are really starting to burst and grow each day. Lots of resin production is starting to form as well, especially near the very tops of the main colas that are beginning to form.

I added some white paper plates to cover the pots so the soil doesn't dry up quite as fast and that some of the light will reflect up into the bottom leaves. This is especially helpful since my oscillating fan is now running faster right over the tops of the pots.

Pics 1-4 are of the room itself and the plants inside of them as usual. A few of them may look a little droopy, but that is just because I took the pics right before they were watered.

Pic 5 is a shot I took of my favorite White Widow plant so far. It came out much clearer because I obviously took it out of the room for this shot. Imagine how good these things are going to look in 6-7 more weeks!

lookin good! interesting idea about the plates in theory makes sense hope it works let me know!
I sure hope so. I forgot to add they they are actually the thick, synthetic plastic type plates and not just your regular thin, cheap paper plates. These things shine like crazy with the HPS lights directly on them so there is no doubt that they reflect at least some light.

Yeah I cant imagine what it will look like but I will say I cant wait to see it. So are you working with 19 female plants in total then now dill? Great looking plants

hey man your buds look real nice, i've had the pleasure of enjoying all the strains you are bringing to fruition so you should be in for a good treat.. I was wondering if the place where you got your seeds ships throughout the country.. I'm tryin to raise a few of these strains myself
