I just bought a cheap PH meter off of Amazon. Haven't used it yet, but I'm sure tired of eye balling ph strips every day haha. I got a cheaper ppm meter with it that does way more then my bluelab one, but it seems to be 200ppm off from my older bluelab ppm meter. Not sure which is more accurate.
About the ppm readings being different, they may both be accurate, those ppm meters come on the "500 scale" and "700 scale". Kind of confusing but that could be the reason they are off, the meters using different amounts of measure.

I've had the same blue lab for 3 years.they will start going janky on you when the battery needs changed.takes 2 minutes to swap it.also you need to use tap water to fill the cap before you put it back in.use a tooth brush once every 6 months 2 clean the probes.takes a couple minutes.i calibrate mine after I do this.
Never had an issue with the ph pen or the ec one.i love them and they were more accurate than the Havana ones I had.the Havana was way off in ro water not so much tap water.you need a good pen in ro cause the ions or some shit bind so easy that ph pens can be janky.
I wouldnt use any other pens besides them.

I bought the pens from the dickhead at the hydro shop.this dude is a dick but knows his shit.hes one of the best hydro growers I've seen.real hippy kinda vegan chump.he told me when I bought them.they have to be cared for.you cant just throw em around and not put water in the cap before you put it in.
The EC pen dont matter.the ph is the one you have to take care of.

Can a plant get pregnant if she's got pistils but hasn't started flowering?
Do male plants stretch like females during early flower?
How much do male plants smell compared to females?

Any help is appreciated.
I've never done this shit before... :dunce:

The male Evergreen I had going was louder than any female I've ever had. I think I pulled it 3 weeks ago. I regret pulling it now but it would've seeded all my girls(all outdoors). I really wanted to cross it with a critical + 2.0 I have going for some added mold resistance and shortened flowering for the stardawg. I may try to cross Evergreen and Delecious Eleven Roses in the future since they both have Appalachian lineage.

Yes you can pollenate pre flowers
And make seeds in veg
Your other questions are more based off genetics.

That’s a seed made under 24 hours of light

Here is a MonsterCrop clone I pollenated once it took root, I should have about 30-40 beans before it goes to flower 82085E7C-25F5-4A0B-8280-5A383B1F8747.jpeg

Thanks for the info but it's not what I wanted to hear. :?
My male has been hanging out with the girls outside and he's got some open sacs. I checked them and there's definitely yellow powder inside.
Went ahead and picked all of the open pods I could find -- probably 5 or six.
And there's a shitload of em getting fat, ready to pop.

I'm going to quarantine the boy and move him to the back of the yard. He won't get as much sun but it probably doesn't matter.

I agree, my bluelab pen is boss and I toss it around. I had a bluelab ph pen but the first time I opened it I couldn't get the cap off and the bulb broke. Never got a chance to test it out. I should just replace the batteries in mine. Its acting janky.

Edit: @NugHeuser user I didn't know they operated on different scales. I should go and see which ones they are using.

I’d move him miles away not feet if you don’t want him to get on the girls ,
A little breeze is all it takes

Only one triple A battery.i use the lithium ultimate cause they have a slightly higher voltage good for sensitive electronics.

Well shit.

I was hoping that keeping him far away from the girls would prevent unwanted pregnancy.
That fucker is going to make a LOT of pollen, I can already tell...

Not sure if I want to go through with this.


The boy may get chopped. :-(

Chop him and save a branch and put it in a cup of water to try and get it to spew some yellow baby making dust out for you to collect for later maybe?

Interesting.
The stem rub on my male isn't loud at all -- but none of the bodegas are loud right now.
Same with Texas butter. Some of them started with a chem profile but it faded. Now they're kinda fruity.

11 pebble pushers and 11 sundae stallions plus 2 orange tree wildcards I got from a contest ima try em and see how they do.
All of the seeds popped open just transplanted to top 1 inch of coco and the bottom is roots organic.

hey man Im really interested on how the stallions go. I got a tester pack and they all sprouted but then started doing some crazy morphing. I only have like 3 strong ones left. I popped 6 other strains at the same time which all followed the normal course and are all doing well. I feel like a schmuck as they were free testers on 4/20 but its weird none of the other strains (including cackelberry) showed stress signs. If yours go without a hitch Im contemplating purchasing another pack of stallions so the journal on the site doesnt represent a fuck up on my part.

Mine was loud without even touching it. I could smell it 75 yards before I even got to it. Part of the reason I pulled it...stealth. It had indica dom leaves but at the same time it was tall for an indica. The fem evergreen I have is the direct opposite. Sativa leaves but compact and bushy.

I've hit shirleys from that batch w/ both copper chem and orgi pollen. Just don't forget those beans were born from mom with no help from a dad, so keep a close eye on them. [no worries if you'd went w/ the Big Smiths, but....].

Picture of my wife's snatch in exchange for 4 beans...I'm kinda scraping the barrel this week for $
I can't go for that.

Male plants can still stretch pretty good what will set them apart from females structurally is that females will have a wavy like growth to the stems. This is in preparation for holding heavier flowers.

^ A very basic visual of what I am talking about above. Males and females can both reek. Really no way to smell a difference in sex.

Yeah any pistils showing can accept pollen. When pistils are hit with pollen they will sort of look singed. Like someone took a match to them and also turn brown pretty quick.
