definetely a herm you got there buddy. looks further than just preflowers though which is the odd part. may have found some auto in its genes.
Exactly lol.I was wondering about the auto part too. I think I might have a C4/CB doing the same thing.
Anaerobic. Without oxygen. So like water torture.
I'd rather deal with herms and males than contribute to femmed seeds. Just my thing.hermage sucks
Femmed seeds are good from an end-user perspective (if you just want to grow a female to smoke), but I'd rather deal with a few males & herms than the thought of a line of genetics that's been forced to an almost dead end.I'd rather deal with herms and males than contribute to femmed seeds.

I'll take a shot at answering this. Have you transplanted and if so how long before throwing them into flower? Secondly, depending on the strain, I'm growing a critical+kali mist, they may take longer to start flowering than say a skunk strain would. Twenty three days of 12/12 is not really that much time, I think you might be raising your expectations a bit high. I'm at day thirty three of 12/12 and it wasn't really until this morning that I noticed my buds are starting to fill out. One thing growing will teach all of us, patience.Ok since you asked so kindly here you go:
I had to turn the lights off then on (not enough room light to see anything in the tent) because of the orange and black bands so i only snapped a few quick ones while i could- and my net speed running reduced so only uploaded 2.
What the pictures show is a tent 1.2 meters wide, 1.2 meters deep and 2 meters tall. Until a few hours ago I used a 600w hps from seed in cana coco coir. Now i got 2x 400w back to back. In these pictures there is 6 plants which are now 23 days from when i switched the light to 12-12... so they are kind of sucking really, although i haven't grown these strains before... i expected bigger bud on there but the LSD is coming on slow. All 3 on the left are Barney's seed farm LSD and on the right the closest to the camera is DinaFem Diesel, then behind that is DinaFem Critical + and furthest on the right is another LSD. I topped all of them after the 2nd node. the Critical+ is a short plant but i also fucked it around by accidently snapping a main branch away from the node while trying to bend it. It's all a bit chocka in there because they shot out like bastards, i cut like half the mass out just so it could breathe but next time i think i'll try topping above the first node so there will be less but bigger cola's with more space between. On the grill the plants sit on (to drain in to buckets when i hand feed) i got 2 100mm inline fans pointing straight up and another bathroom ceiling vent fan right in the middle pointing up too.
The second photo is from the diesel plant.
So um, anyone want to tell me why my plants aren't budding up big yet?
We started our 12/12 on the same day!I'm at day thirty three of 12/12 and it wasn't really until this morning that I noticed my buds are starting to fill out. One thing growing will teach all of us, patience.
Heat could of been a problem i figured... but then again, what about all the tops that were far enough away as to be in the right temp zone? Did they get held back by being part of the same plant that had other hot tops?Do you have an inline fan pulling air out of the tent pandan? If not, you need to sort that out, and make sure the air you are pulling out is going somewhere that people are not going to smell (or get a filter.)
Probably the fact that your temps have been high has been sl;owing the growth down. Now you are on 25 then you should be good.
Did you know that 1 x 600w = around 90,000 lumens, and 2 X 400 is only a little bit more than that. (prob about 100,000 lumens) So lots more electricity use, not much more light. Just my 2 cents.
Uuuum.... yeah i um re-potted them like a few days ago.... but that's because i accidently put them in the wrong size (20cm diameter) and then realized they were binding up so i put them in 250cm. I figured i sort of had to because of their size. As it is, just last night i saw root tips where the drain holes are on my big LSD at the front, so in less than a week it's claimed a good portion of the space i gave it....I'll take a shot at answering this. Have you transplanted and if so how long before throwing them into flower?
I dont think you've done damage by repotting unless to handled them really badly, you'll probably notice a slight drop but it should pick back up. if not it probably another issue.Uuuum.... yeah i um re-potted them like a few days ago.... but that's because i accidently put them in the wrong size (20cm diameter) and then realized they were binding up so i put them in 250cm.

So new question for everyone out there- if i slowed down my flowering by re-potting, did i fuck my yield or potency at all or just the timeline? As in, will it just take longer or have i done a permanent bad to these guys?
The light did seem pretty good but look at the top left of this pictureYour tent sounds like the dr120 that ive worked with many times and they are perfect for 1x 600 wt hps as the light spread reaches those exact measurements.. If not sure go for a bigger hood .. I would nt advise 2x400s in that tight space ,its not worth it with all the heat you'll be getting plus you say you can't vent outside the room the tents in , If you must then get a bigger extraction fan than your currently using ,i've had the exact same problems in the past.. Check my Ak47 thread thats were i was running them single tents...
