well gentleman it was a sad morning..... while checking up on my ladies and raising the light.... well the light fell on one side and just bent the shit out of my lage widow and slightly damaged the one next to it...=( now my widow is split in half top half i put in water so i can get some roots hopefully and the bottom half is just gonna have to be a lil bush i suppose... i really beat myself up but then i remembered my giant thats in the bush and it kinda calmed me..so far on my first grow i felt i was doin good but since im a noob i should have expected a novice error remove plants before u raise light lol.... so hopefully it recovers.. well hopefully its a male, please let be a male.. i swear i felt the pain when that light fell... plus screaming fuck at 830am outside might have roused someone. but good thing for clones but i know im a lose a small percentage of the small percentage of the yield i was expecting. since my growing time is in its last month cuz frost is usually in mid september. o the humanity
well that sux :cry:

A few weeks back I knocked over one of my girls and nearly snapped her off at the soil - ripping the roots - and ever since she hasn't been the same. At least we were smart enough to take clones.

More on cloning in my journal later today, if I can find the time. As it turns out taking clones in flower is a mistake, as the stress of flowering strips a piece of the genetics away. :twisted: From here out I'm only taking clones in veg.

sounds good discovered a few males today the unbroken widow was one of them... i also noticed that the males grow fucking fast lol and since my other females are small l i was thinking wether or not to just separate them... they are all seed bank seeds and i only have about16 seeds left half widow and caramelicious... i can use the seeds next year for an earlier start.. sux thatll have to smoke some seedy weed. ill just take 2 more fems to the bush to plant and the few i have in my somewhat indoor op ill seed...

Man you have had some shitty luck this past week. I hope it means that your troubles are behing and the rest of the grow is good for you. At least you have good seeds for an early start next grow.

Glad to hear your luck is changing.

I was able to chose 4 (100%) females from 20 seeds just by going by what you're talking about. The short stocky ones are almost always females, while the spindly ones are usually males. Before feminized seed was available, this is how we used to weed 'em out (no pun intended.

Can't wait to see the new pics:leaf:
