Thanks bro, glad to see your doing better! You see what kinda turn around you can have!


And sorry i didn't put up pics last night guys, G/F stole the comp. and i passed out. so here ya go!



oh, the first plant by itself is the youngest seedling the second is droopy *then in the next pic you can see the start of a preflower. I'll be watching it very closely!! lets pray for some hairs!! And lastly the room. Need to add the cfl side lighting tonight.

These are some more pics. Kinda random. But look at the first three and tell me these don't look like some kind of banshee lady plant from hell!!!!!
Or maybe i'm just high lol!

Nice, I told you they would come around. Those look real good. What's their age and heigts. I try to mesh them in my chart the maybe you can make a good guess as to flowering time.

I've got good news about the clones, they are all in soil. I'm working on the update (slowly as I'm buzzed).

they look beutiful man keep up the good work and thanks for all the advice os far

Yeah i'm really happy about it! Thank you so much for everything!!!

Ok the youngest seedling is 34 days from sprout and is about 5 1/2" tall and over 8" wide.

The middle one (the purple one for those that have been here awhile)
is 36 days and about 5 5/8" tall with a wingspan of about 11"

The tallest one (droopy) is 39 days and about 6 1/4" tall and is widest at about 11"

(i've just been going by the youngest ones age though)

Thanks man! They are starting look real good. I'm just glad i've been able to help out!


BTW most of the side chutes are turning red/purple. I think they've about exhausted the nutes in the soil. So i'm thinking about just repotting them today into the 3gal. and getting the side lighting up as well. Switch them to 18-6 for a little while. What do you guys think?

I went to 18- 6 when I started to look like things where actually gonna stay alive..you are deffinatly there! imo

the one i said was drooping and perkedback up did it again last night then this morning was right back to normal, i gotto think of a good name for it

Here are my stats at day 33. From post 12 in my journal. I add which male/female.

June 3, 2008 plant 2 and 3 got 4oz of water.
Distance to 400 watt light 14 " (MH conversion on 18/12)
Temp 81 deg f at top of cab. The lower is cooler.
1) 5.5 x 11 female
2) 6. 5 x 11 male
3) 5.25 x 11 female
4) 7 x 12 male
5) 4 x 12.5 female
6) 6 x 10 male
7) 4 x 10 male
(day 32 pic)


Thats about the time I got my act together.

on day 39 #6 male hit 12"
between days 43 and 45 all three females hit 12"

Looking back by day 40 I now see the males were growing faster then the girls.

I keep vegging until day 48 I should have started at least a week earlyer.

I hope these #'s help with your time table projections. (I'm buzz so the math seems cool right now).

plants are looking good waffles. i would suggest 18/6 as well, you'll love how they will start to explode in a few days. nice grow box/closet too.

Yours are almost caught up. It looks like I'm in 1 gal pots.

Yeah that shits tight! So you already had preflowers by then? Damn only the eldest one has any. She's got two and they are very small. Oh i got a 100x mini microsope and was looking at the leaves and there was so many little gobs of resin it is even more beautiful on that scale!!!

I just put all the ladies into new 10in pots today.
and i got an atual ruler today.
The youngest one is about 5" tall x 9.5" wide
The middle one is 5 5/8" tall x 8" wide
The eldest one is 7" tall x 10" wide

The older one is much taller due to stretching right before i got things straight.

I couldn't tell sex until after day 50. I know sex now so I update the info with the sex.

The trend was all the males hit 12" before the females. Just stuff to keep in mind. So maybe wait until more then one hits 12".

Ohhh, ok. Well droopy was the tallest but now the purple one is catching up quick. I hope that doesn't mean she's a he. But droopy has the two Preflowers starting or I guess the calyx's so i hope to know sex within the next few days or week or so.

hey guys do you know if 2700k is the right spectrum for flowering

After night cycle: 6 1/2" x 11"

The purple one
Before: 6 7/8" x 12 1/8"
found 2 preflowers starting (calyx)
After: 7 1/4" x 12 1/4"

The eldest
Before: 8" x 12 1/8"

After: 9 1/4" x 13 1/8"

Everything is looking good. Looks like i might end up flowering this weekend.
