First grow/CFL stealth cab/Short Rider

[SirPsycho]

thanks!!! the fans work fine. i have a window behind the tent so one brings in outside air and the other brings cool air from another room. it's not in the pic but i also have on top of the tent a 6' 400cfm fan that suck out all the hot air that the 400w hps produces.

I like the setup bro!! How's that inline fan working for you? Plants look very healthy too!

Sounds like some good ventilation!

IDK, to be honest it's looked like that for a while and I haven't seen distinct hairs yet.. This is my first grow though so I might be missing something but I doubt it.. I have seen a male plant and a female palnt before so I have something to go off of, plus the pics on here..

I just put up a thread in the newbie section to see what RIU thinks

Wanna gimme one of those trees bro? ha jk, nice update, they look sexy, I kinda wanna jizz all over them.

 

[chainseeker]

Yuk ^^
I don't see any signs yet

Hope they show up soon

 

[SmeLLyTreeZ]

LoL... Thanks chain, I was just looking in the newb section and this guy has some good picures of early male and female preflowers. Here's the link if anyone wants to take a look.https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/348992-sexy-game-help-me-id.html

How long does it usually take to show sex, when switching to 12/12? 2 weeks or so?

 

[Concord Dawn]

heres what i have, these helped me at first.

 

[SmeLLyTreeZ]

Thanks for the pics CD, the first one of the male preflower makes me worry... I guess time will tell, if both of these are male that would suck!

 

[djruiner]

Nice thread so far. you could probably improve your grow box a bit with mylar. I used emergency blankets from walmart in the camping section 2.35$ more reflectve than that bubble wrap you have. I bought some and stuff isnt cheap. check out my blog https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/335071-first-time-growing-ever-well-2.html#post4265552

i hate to say it...but pics 2 and 3 look like male preflowers...but it might be to early to tell still...ofcourse keep in mind...hermies will give you a really long hangtime to show sex.if you dont get a def answer in a few days after you switch to 12/12 id be worried..had one turn hermi on me.it was on 12/12 for about a month and a half...still only had the preflowers..looked just like yours ,it would not give a def answer on sex...just stalled out on me..it went chop chop...if it gets these claw looking things on the end of the preflowers...get them away from your girls

Its a sun shade for a car lol and its actually very reflective and contains mylar I think... I have another cab being built right now, I already picked up some of the emergency blanket which seems okay, "used some on the original stealth cab.." I've heard good things about it but honestly it seems to me that tin foil would work similar... Don't worry I'm not using tin foil lol.. I will use the emergency blanket for the final mother cab and keep the small box for seedlings/ clones.. Mylar is to damn expensive but you get what you pay for I guess.. Thanks for stopping in and +Rep for the suggestions!!

Thanks for the suggestion DJ, I still hope your wrong For some reason I have a bad feeling though so I guess we will see..

If they don't show after 3 weeks, these bitches are going outside or in bubble bags lol...

And nirvana is going to be hearing from me!


Here's a couple more pretty good pics for preflowers..

i hope im wrong to...hence why i said i hate to say it...but if nothing else..let it knock itself up and get some seeds from it..

nows thats some funny shit right there, i dont care who you are, LoL.

 

[djruiner]

thats brings me to my next question...do sperm pop if you smoke them...and..do spermies feel pain? and now that i think about it..a protein shot might be good for them..but im still not smoking it

I don't see anything that has me thinking male.
Good vibes to your plants via internet headed your way.

If it was hermi wouldn't all the seeds be hermi too?

Thanks Chain, I'm still trying to think positive!! I knew from the begining I would proabbly have to switch the light schedule..

well its kinda 50/50.if you started with a fem seed and it turned hermie due to stress i wouldnt think it to be completely encoded into the genetics of the seed...all seeds start with a 50/50 chance of being a girl or a boy.they turn hermie due to stress,not cause of the seed....keep in mind..this is all in theory.i would say if you do get a plant full of seeds...try some...plant them outside away from any females and see what happens.even if you have all females outside..they still run the chance of getting knocked up.had a buddy of mine grow a single plant outside...was a great growing female..yet still was pollinated.we summed it up to someone near by having a male plant...that floating pollen can be a bitch
