I germinated the autos a few weeks before starting the photoperiod plants. If everything went smoothly I would be harvesting them all right about now. Unfortunately I didn't keep a close enough eye on them as they were starting and they all died :(.

I know, lately I've just been hoping this summer flies by, something I never find myself wishing haha. I'm pretty disappointed that the Red Dragon isn't putting out 4 tops, but oh well. I'm gonna go buy flowering nutrients today. Thanks for checking out my thread guys!

Yesterday I witnessed a few spiders attacking a fly on the stem of my plants. By the time I thought to take a picture, two of the spiders had fled and only one remained attacking the fly. It seems everyday spiders build webs all over my plants, didn't really think much of it until now though. I'm hoping this is a good thing, I kinda assume it is! Either way it's cool to see my plants create a home/hunting ground.

I have a mantis on one of my plants and I can NEVER find the homie when I have my camera. When I don't he's kicking back on top of the plant! LOL

Do mites and other harmful bugs attack and become a problem in flowering only? I'll have to buy some mantis eggs for some extra help! So far though I haven't seen too many bugs on them.

Update on the 5 girls in pots. They're all looking great, especially the SLH. They're still soaking up the sun a ton and loving the weather. I can't wait to look back on these pics in a few weeks and be like damn they grew a ton, just like I am now! I also took a close up pic of one of the 5 gallon plants close up on one of the nodes to see if it's possible to tell the sex of it, what do you guys think? Or did I take a picture of the wrong spot haha. Thanks guys for the help!

SLH


The 10 gal buckets. I think the one on the left is Gigabud and right is Super Skunk based on indica and sativa differences, could be wrong though.


The 5 gallon buckets. Going to transplant to bigger pots if they turn out to be female. The one on the right is Purple Haze, left is Cali Hash Plant.


And finally, the close up pic of one of the 5 gallons (I forgot which one it was lol). Can you tell the sex of the plant by this pic? Good answers earn rep!


That's all for now, will take a pic of the RD and DV soon here, they're looking nice...

damn! either nute burn with bugs and then no nutes at all mate i can tell wen a plant needs some juice its sucks up juices from leaves in order for the top of the plant to survive try feeding her but not too much

Cool! Thanks guys, I fed them a light dose of a tea and they seem to be doing a bit better. I'm gonna feed them again in a few days. Hopefully they'll look better in the next week. Do they grow a lot faster in flowering vs veg? I know it'd be hard to say, but what do you think I could yield? Thanks for the advice!

if all goes well and no bud rot if u start seeing hairs in the next couple of weeks (which u should) then u can prob pull off 1-7 ounces on each plant but it all determines i had a 4x4ft plant and it died i still dont kno y but it had preflowers and produced 1 oz dry and" a 1 hour dro high" like 10 people said lol but if i got to the end with that plant i would expect 1/2-1 pounder lol that plant was insane my current plant is 3x3 BUT im seeing this baby might pull off 5 oz easy if not some homegrown is better than no homegrown right?
