The calyxs are a lot bigger on the 4 in the autopots. I think they are gonna be beauties those 4.
The big one is ten weeks tomorrow so thats getting the chop. I was thinking of taking one at 8 weeks and one at 9 weeks and letting the last 2 go to 11 and 12 weeks so i can see what is the best time to take it, for my preference lol. That way i'll have 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 week cheese. I prolly won't do all that but its an idea lmao

Oh yeah, i forgot to say, my 1st attempt at breeding may be working. The hashplant hermie pollen i put on a couple of buds has made the hairs recede right back into the calyx and they look a bit different. Will the chances of the seeds being female be higher than regular seeds coz of it being hermie pollen? The mother/father plant is a Sensi hashplant from reg seeds and it finishes in 7 weeks and is very nice, my mate has been growing it for 2 years from the same mother. It goes hermie in about week 4 but it only has a few boy bits and once he's picked them off they don't come back so its not a huge problem and its not all the clones that do it, about 1 in 10. I'm looking forward to the seeds if i get any.

good plan on the varying timescales the difference is great! for me optimum was about 9.5 weeks

hermie going in = hermie out man nowt you can do about it but if its just a few naners i wouldnt worry too much. fingers crossed tho man im really looking forward to chucking some pollen about :)

I only did it coz i could lol its not a serious attempt at breeding just a bit of a laugh. It could be a corker, it'll have the genes for it. Time will tell. If it keeps the cheesiness and knocks a week and half off the 12/12 time i'll consider it a success. I'm counting chickens, i ain't even got a bean yet lmao

Looking nice there Oscar mate. Ive known a guy to take the cheese at 4 weeks and still be happy with it lmao. I like the cheese bout 66 days like don does maybe its cuz of the micky rouke film that makes u think thats a good time to take 9 and a half weeks lol. I took my last co at excacly 8 weeks this last time and its pucka propper tastey and stoney. Im impressed u still have the 10 weker drawing breath, have u looked at the trichs?

Yeah, i'll do a load of pics before i chop her. My 1st cheese attempt but i dunno if i'll better it.
Any guess on the weight of it?

I've just had a look at the 10 week cheese and i think it may have lost something in the last week. Its gained weight and the buds are rock hard but it seems drier and less smelly and sticky. IMHO i think it was at its best at 8 an half weeks but i couldn't take mine coz i hadn't flushed it

I'm gonna take the leaves off and hang it up in the tent, wrapped loosely in newspaper so the light can't damage it. Thats usually how i do it and it works as good as anything i've tried.

And doing it that way the stench gets passed through the carbon filter. The cheese may still get another week coz i don't wanna chop it tomorrow coz i'll reek at work......again lol
