*Sighs* oh man all as i can say is a big fuck off well done hahahaha! only cos you know the probs i been having.
I'm so glad to hear that your SBR is growing vigorously!! i knew it was gonna be a goodie ;)

As for the clone cab...well done thats all you need, infact its probally better than mine as they have their own individual climates, all as i do is make sure i fan out the Co2, it does sink so if there is a gap at the bottom of the bag then this will be fine.

I have never ever had a prob doing a soil seed grow before, up untill now when i decide to start a thread and 'show' everybody Hahahah.

Rep+ to ya for having a great update with plenny of pics

(P.s how much of a bitch is it to proof read and set up the attachments after RIU randomly loads them. they land fucking evrywhere, ive learnt to uploads pics first then start typing. lol)

EDIT: i gotta go suck some cock before i can rep ya again, sorry mate.

Yeah, she always gets kinda droopy just before lights out. I've been thinking about transplanting her to some new soil, the shit I have right now compacts too much and I think they would do better in OF.

Hopefully the clone cab will work just fine, I see no reason not too.

And it turns out the white part we say was the bottom of the root (oops). I flipped the seed right side up, but part of the root appeared to be brown. Hopefully it's not dead already.

hahaha yeah same here i think when i picked it up just after i put the seed in (pointy side down) that it must of rolled somehow...then it just so happed to be the side that splits was facing up and the tap went straight up in the air the twirled around like a pigs tail and then started to bury itself ;)

Ok, so I'm seeing something between the nodes and I'm not sure if it's male or female. I could have sworn I saw a pistil sticking out of one of these things, but it's too small to be sure.

If anyone can tell at this point from the pictures provided, feel free to let me know.

EDIT: While I'm showing it off, here's a picture of her looking nice and perky after last night's watering.

Right now i'd say its about 14 inches from them. I'm using lst on the mango to keep it lower until the seedlings catch up.

Good news on the Mango..

It's a girl

I was taking a closer look with my magnifying glass and I can officially call this one a girl. The little bumps I saw were calyxes and now pistils are clearly emerging. I highlighted it in red.



This is great news. I LST'd a couple of the colas again to spread the light out nice and evenly, but that may be all I do since she's clearly begun to flower now. I see a couple more colas trying to stick up from the canopy and I'm trying to give these little guys one last chance before the plant gets too mature. She's looking nice now, I like how strong the trunk is in the side shot.

She's a very nice shade of green now, not too dark but not any yellow. Like a ripe lime. I am a bit concerned about some of her stems turning purple. I figured it may be the early signs of another N deficiency (the second in this plant's short life) so I decided to give a feeding with the FF trio (in accordance with FoxFarm's feeding schedule) and see if that fixes the problem. I've still been making it rain with this plant, but I sometimes lose track of when I last gave food instead of just water:wall:

The Babies

The SBR is working on it's third set of leaves and they're all very strong. I repotted her in Ocean Forest yesterday since I've grown to despise my old brand of soil. She seems to like it enough. Already showing nice tight node spacing.

The Kannabia Special is looking great. Her leaves are a bit goffier than the SBR at the moment, but I like special plants. Good stocky growth early on.

The White Rhino is catching up quickly, so I can't complain. No nutes yet, but I'll start on a light regimen of Big Bloom next week. Same goes for the WW x BB, which is still a bit stunted from the early trauma. The Widow is on the left, Rhino on the right.

I did some work on the mango today. Basically a bit of lollipopping now that I have 6 main colas showing. I've LST'd all the colas to their own area with lots of room leftover for the middle of the canopy. I've included a close up of what could be up to 4 new colas growing in the center. With all the LST done on the rest of the plant I have high hopes for an 8 cola monster:bigjoint:

As far as the seedlings go there's not much to report. I'm still getting a bad growth rate from the Big Widow, but I'm not too concerned about it since I have more of those ready whenever I want.

Fuck yeah when i eventually pop my mango seeds if one...just one turns out like that then i will be a happy man!

Thanks, trick. I can't say if its even true mango. It was found in a bag of otherwise sensimillia mango from CO, so chances are it selfpollinated and I may have a different phenotype. I'll probably end up naming it something else at the end of the grow (since it's my own unique strain now) and cloning it if it turns out well.
