hey man thanks for saying hello again. yea it does suck about the ex-gf beast fucking my grow up, but i have great news. I was able to save 3 diesel ryders , 2 of which are showing that they are female, and i have the 3 green-o-matic seeds which are feminized and growing like... welll....weeds
. i am going to the grow site tonight, i will take pictures then. i have been promising them but the last time i took pictures, i couldnt find the download cord for my digital camera! haha... but fear not ive found the cord and i will upload very soon. my guess is with the stress involved the diesel ryders will produce a minimal harvest. under ideal conditions without stupid bitch girl friends... maybe 20 to 35g per plant.
as for as your plants being stringy and streched that is most likely because they are not getting enough light. increase the light intake.
i think for the money its always better to get fem seeds unless you are going to try and breed them (which isnt just as easy and pollenating the females). in the case of joint doctors diessel ryder i would have to give them medium marks. heres the run down for me:
10 regular diesel ryder seeds
8 out of 10 germinated, 2 never popped and were dead seeds
then that fucking ex girl friend tried to toss them out and i lost 5 out of the 8 i had. but even thru all this the 3 diesel ryders i have are growing fast strong and one main cola like advertised. and 2 of the 3 i have left are female, so there is a possiblity for high female ratios with joint doctors diesel ryder. but mine didnt show sex until 25 days. probly because of the stress.
for the money i think the short stuff line of seeds has very promising strains, along with the new nirvana auto strains that are coming out (check the attitude, special sale this weekend!).
a good bargin for fem seeds that grow fast and produce thc at around 12 to 15% (pretty high seeing that most A grade weeds at around 10%thc) would have to be either the green-o-matics or sweet seeds fast buds. 15g to 35g per plant harvest, the fast bud seeds are rated at a 16%thc level. the green-o-matics are strong and fast growing, they germinate quickly. just dont get caught up in the stupid names of them, the devil is in the details
both harvest in 60 days from seed.
