Greetings from May 2018 (Hindu Kush Outdoor Grow)

I hope to keep this short and sweet, as I realize it can be difficult to read through wordy/rambling messages...

Sometime in the beginning of May of 2018, I planted about 9 seeds, that came from really tremendous hindu kush pot. Very sticky/potent weed that once in a while gave a seed or two. So I finally collected 10 seeds.

I started the grow in my attic space, but that became a major pain in the butt for so many reasons (heat, lack of easy access). So I moved the plants out into my land, and discovered that I'd have to saw down lots of trees in order for the pot plants to get some sun. So I took down about 7 huge trees, and all of a sudden had sufficient sunlight for the plants.

Anyway, I plated the seeds in their pots. 10 seeds. I snapped a seedling immediately so down to 9. Then in a dry snap when I was away, one plant died from dehydration. Then two turned out to be males...so that left me down to 6 female plants after everything was said and done.

I mixed OceanForest with this soil enhancer, and perlite, and that's the only nutrients these plants have have had their whole life. In fact, I hardly water them. Nature seems to do a good job of that. The only thing I did was tie the plants down, and they kept going up, big and bushy.

I never pruned them or fertilized them. They seem to be growing healthy, and some plants seem to have rooted into the earth soil. Any tips? When should I expect buds? When I was away, two of the plants turned out to be male, and they were sitting right next to the females. I was horrified to discover this upon arrival. I don't know if the female plants have become impregnated. I moved the two males down the hill. I didn't know what to do with them. I just threw them on their side unable to bring myself to kill them. Any thoughts on this subject, or thoughts on this grow in general?

Here are the pictures chronicling it's start in early May of 2018 out to just yesterday, Aug 19, 2018:





















Here's one of the pesky males...



Thanks for any thoughts!

Probably should have bagged that thing before you moved it. Unless you want to make more seeds kill it, kill it, kill it!

Watch for Hermes. I'm guessing that's where your seeds came from.

What he said. When mature the boys will be like a naval base, seamen everywhere!(pollen aka plant jizz)
And these plants want babies bad. Always kill males asap. And if you find one late that could or has burst its sacs carefully put a trash bag on it to remove it, and hope for the best. It takes the tiniest amount of pollen to fuck ya.

Through a period of about a year I was getting this hindu kush from a pal. Every once in a rare moon a seed would fall out of the bud. Don't know what to say!

Based on what has been said in the above posts, I'm wondering then if the females aren't already impregnated.

Considering the time of year, when do these babies put out flowers? Just curious.

If you don't kill those males everything within a 1/4 mile could be impregnated

Well I'm going to kill them in 10 minutes. They're gone. Basically at this point there's a chance my female are impregnated? If so, then what do I get, just really seedy buds?

When the flower is dependant on your light/dark hours. You wont know if they are knocked up until you see seeds. Worst case you get seedy bud..

Seedy less potent bud is the norm
The plant sends all its energy to make seeds rather than produce buds

Well, the males were killed yesterday. I guess at this point time will tell what I wind up with. If at the worst I'll have good seeds?

Anyway thanks for the info! Kindly appreciate. Will post updates.

Yup. Worse case scenario , you got your next batch of beans.

Here are the plants as of yesterday. My relative keeps asking when will it be done. I always reply "I have no idea". I really don't! Anyone have a clue (in terms of time)? Thanks for looking...

Any thoughts? Thank you :-0

Probably 6 or 7 weeks. Ruff guess
