scribed...i gotta see this shit frm start 2 finish!!!
DaGambler's 4k HPS 99 Plant Hempy Grow
- Thread starter DaGambler
- Start date
i would say fluctuations between (drying to) 1 and (wetting to) 9 would be good.
i would keep clones between 5 and 9.

this is the 10.00 one which goes 1-4.
Balls. One of the two 'mothers' G13xHashPlant never did show pre-flowers. And its a Boy. So i just lost 18 of those along with 18 clones (all those in the picture).
Plus i misidentified one of the White Russians during preflowering ... and cloned a few of those as well. So far i have found 3 of those... and i may have a couple more. This takes me down to around 78 containers in the flower room... which i knew might happen. But the bummer is that i now have a small number of some White Russians cloned that will turn out Male in the next crop.
The third crop will be fully determined as i won't take any clones (off these clones) except from deffinite females. The current clone crop is still sufficient to fill the flower room the next go-round.
Lesson: try not to rely on pre-flowers... i misidentified one of the original 27 plants. And one of the 27 never showed pre-flowers at all.

same deal. Just try not to let it fall to less than 1/10th (dry) and try not to water over 9/10ths (wet) while keeping clones from the midpoint up to the 9/10ths mark.

ya, i prolly shoulda flowerd them out. i thought i had all of them properly sexed by preflowers except just the one G13xHP. But i mistook one of the WR's. ah well, as said before, it'll be about the third crop till i've got my clone selection all the way down. but the second will be better than the first. and the third should kick the most ass, yeild-wise.
but i'm also going to start flowering them when they are much smaller as well (like 10"-12"). some of them were also overtopped. Next go round i'll only be topping them once. Depending on how that goes, i may even just go to growing single colas.
the sativas will likely fall by the wayside as well, especially if they delay harvest. (Power Skunk, Durban Poison... maybe even the White Widow, but deffinitely gonna let the Power Skunk go completely by the third set.) Focus on the Mr. Nice (G13xHP) and the White Russian. I kept a Mr. Nice male... so maybe at some point i'll even breed some "Mr. Nice Russian's"

I would let the Power Skunk go right now! Horrible genetics and looks like it would take about 12-14 weeks to harvest!

Sucks with the males, especially with such nice looking plants! I had wanted to take clones, and sex them before I flowered my mothers, but I was running short on time, so I'm mostly just growing the mothers. I have taken 2 clones off my biggest purple power, and I'll be taking some off some of the other plants, but its mostly to learn how to clone right. A buddy wants a couple clones, so I'll hook him up, and I'm gonna have to take some clones once they do sex to keep for mothers for my next crop. Hopfully sticking the clones back into veg won't bother them too much. I read about people doing it all the time though so it should work.
Sounds like your getting all the bugs worked out though man. The plants sure look healthy. I've got the power skunk going too, so make sure you hook up a smoke report, I'm interested to see how it turns out.

So I'm just curious if you've ever grown the power skunk, and are speaking from experiance? Or are you just saying its bad genetics because they give them away free?

lol,here in this dry hole i can get up to 50.00 for each clone,lol.everyone including mysef will bow down that the g13hp the most lethal so far.
I know you've grown White Russians (White Widow x AK47) as well Raiderman, so i'm kinda surprised that the Mr. Nice (G13 x Hash Plant) is such an easy pick for first place. They have similar claims as far as THC percent goes.
Makes me really wonder how it compares to the G13 x Haze as well... some folks that have tried both G13 hybrids have suggested that the Haze is the clear victor of those two.
.
UPDATE: Day 9, the clone domes come off... i'll be misting them about 4 times a day for the next 2 or 3 days with a very light GH nutrient solution.

I'm curious as well what is meant exactly....
my biggest problem with them is that they are the most sativa dominant phenotype that i have (where's the 'skunk' part?) Even my Durban Poison has much wider leaf blades and more compact growth and its Pure Sativa. Also the stems are thin... its just difficult for me to imagine that they are going to produce much bud. And i may not even finish them if it takes longer than like 9 weeks to do so... Well, i'm sure i'll finish them, but it'll be after transplanting them, cuz i'ma need all them buckets for the next crop... so they may have to finish in garbage bags or something ... around the perimeter of the garden.

i never grew wite russian.thats wy i'm chekin it out. i sold all my clones and am doing 30 BB plants nex.The ppls choice award ,lol.because of the purps i get out of it. jus a small tad behind the g13hp. but heavier buds on the BM and BB by far wen branched.and sugar daddy last 10 days including extra week fini. WR are lookin good .thier bak on trak .fukin moisture , not reliable.how far do you stik the probe in .maybe its hittig some roots and getting a false reading,huh.
I grew 3 females out of the 5 freebies and didn't have the time to let them finsish, at 9 weeks they were just huge plants with tiny airy buds that were super disapointing, I just chopped em down with the rest of the harvest, difference being they went straight in the trash, not even worth keeping for hash, since there was no real thrichrome build up to speak of. Thats why I say you should throw them out, save yourself the dissapointment!

I'm not gonna through mine. They are a very heavy sativa, its silly to expect buds in 9 weeks. They recommend 12-14 weeks I think. I've got about 12 weeks planned, and if I have to I can sit on them for another week maybe two, but I'd rather not that will be cutting it close. I'm sure being a sativa they aren't gonna produce huge buds indoors, but its the genetics I had to work with, and mine are looking great. I've got a total of 5 planted, but I've been trimming all my plants to stay smaller, and more compact since most of them are sativas this run.
Scary, scary. Basically all the plants i have right now are at least showing female flowering at 10 days... except the Power Skunks. 14 weeks vs. 8 wks. ='s no way in hell i'll keep growing them. I'ma still try to finish the few out that i have now though. Thankfully, it would seem, i don't have all that many of them. 'Cuz I killed 3 of the 5 that i had during veg. growth before taking clones, cuz the veg. growth was completely not what i was looking for.
I've seen the plants you grow, i'm sure you'll get them back on track with or w/o a moisture meter
stick in a finger knuckle deep. i just like a moisture meter for clones.. the container is too small for a finger and more accurate at getting down where the root zone is forming.
