hey stoner barbie, and whats going on Gobears4eva. i just caught up on all of your grow, i have to agree with every1 here that says ginormica is looking great. and i have to say that it is definitely a she. that is exactly how my jazzy girl,in soil, looked at 8 weeks. compare your 26 days to my 8 weeks, and let that be a refference guide to about how long you will have to veg ''turtle''. AG is the way to go for quick results, and yours has been fabulous. I have a ? and a couple of suggestions, If i may. Do you have 6 lower branches or 8? you should trim the bottom 4 limbs and fanleaves as well. they are sucker limbs and i left mine on and the bud at the end of my lowest branch is about the size of a quarter, its not very big attall. you can trim them and that will send all the work to the two at the top of the Y. you can leave the two right below the Y they will produce some good size buds. just a suggestion, no action required. i posted a pic of my plant to give you an idea of what to expect. i tied my limbs down with some yarn (1)to get the upper branches out of the way of the lower branches (2) to expose the buds to the light and (3) so i could take pics and get all the branches to show in the pic LOL. but as you can c the lower branches have rediculously small buds on them. if you do not want to trim the branches let me just add one more suggestion. every 2nd node the branches go the same way in direction. cut the ones that have upper branches going the same way. in short terms just have two nodes of lower branches below the Y. because the top goes one way and if you look down two nodes, the branches are coming out in the same direction. and also tie them to make them grow outwards to expose all the buds. you will have to tie the lowest branches out from under the two tops into the open gap area to get light.
PS. sorry so long

very nice clean up job. we can ce those branches great. but yea there are 6 lower branches. i would cut the two very bottom limbs off also (1) to clone the plant, and start in soil, because i would say that the plant is def. female. (2)to start pushing all the extra work the plant will be doing in flowering to the top of the plant where the much larger buds will form. i promise you will not be disapointed.

How could you possibly say that? I mean no disrespect what so ever, just curious... Cuz I didn't see any pre flowers... maybe you did??? I HOPE, I really do, that it's a female... But there's just no way to tell right now! I had a GORGEOUS plant, and I coulda sworn it was a female..... Then I started to flower and little polen sac's popped out... SO disapointing!.. I have cannabutter now at least...

Personally, I would just wait to see a little sign of pre-flowers. THEN clone the bitch! I just think it'd be to disapointing to clone her, end up with great roots, the clones are looking awesome, then the plant turns out to be male... :o That's just my $0.02 anyways. It's really your decision. Clone now if you'd like to. I would just be heart broken if I had to end up throwing away 3-4 clones...

P.S. I PRAY that doesn't happen to you.

yah i would have to agree with you on that one. so you can clone while in flower?
 
Hey I've just finished reading up on your grow. She's a beauty! :)

as for cloning in flower, yeah you can. It might take a while for the roots to set in, though. A lot of people seem to think it's a lot more reliable to clone from flowering rather than from veg but i dunno how true that is lol. If ya got the time I'd say go for it tho :P

anyways good luck!i'm scribed and can't wait to see the harvest

hey shecky if you are going to clone during flowering, do this before 2 week in. i took a cutting at 5 weeks just to c if i could get it to root in a bubble cloner, and the cutting did not make it, so that is my suggestion on that. clone before 2 weeks into flowering.

she is getting soooo bushy and fast too. I raised the AG hood today. it raises in 2 inch increments. I also adjusted my other lights so that the light touches everything. put some more nuted water in the res. i have gone through almost an additional gallon of water in less than a week. the roots are looking really cool too.
