Nat thanks for the suggestion.
I will be taking more pictures tommorow of the Co2 setup and my new big ass can filter.
I also purchased a 600watt digital ballast for the moms room.
A/K has proven very hard to clone as before, I am now looking into building an cloner or else i will have terrible luck at filling this room. Very sad indeed. I need to buy seeds but I am still so very worried. Even then it would take so long for me to have a good mom. Life is sometimes just complicated. How long would you guys think I have to wait after revegging a plant that has the buds cut down until I can clone it again, I am considering flushing and cutting a white rhino early so that I may take clones from it for next harvest. I saw it as being a crazy outof control plant so I decided not to keep it but now it may be my only option. Also if it had accidentaly been polinated will that effect what happens when it is revegged and cloned?
diether... how long did it take for them to get there. So many bad reviews but it totally looks like a place I would buy from... that purple cindy looks out of this world!

yes thats what id say.
a hermie from seed, is a waste of time.

I forgot to ask Greenlight have you considered running the same setup but perpetually? You cold get a lbs every 2 weeks rather than 4 every 2 months

if all the sour deisel arent hermie then it is probabbly just a strain that is prone to it and it is just hearming because of the odd conditions that the plant is in.
the perpetual setup sounds bomb ass with this room and much less maintainace than a big flood and drain table setup like some i have seen. also requires less energy which i give props up to as well.

Hey I found this on making fem seed's in high times.
Creating feminized cannabis seeds is an art. Just like art, there are a few different methods of application. I have written about some of my different methods of making seeds in previous HIGH TIMES articles. I have used gibberellic acid, pH stress, light stress, and fertilizer stress to force my female plants to make seeds. All of these methods are harsh on the plants, and some, like the gibberellic acid, are not organic. In my search for cleaner, more earth-friendly ways of working with the cannabis plant, I have found a new way to make feminized seeds.
Feminized seeds occur as a result of stress, rather than genetics. All cannabis plants can and will make male flowers under stress. Certain strains like a higher pH, some a lower one. Some like a lot of food, some like much less. There is quite a lot of variety in marijuana genetics, and you cant treat every plant the same way.
It takes many harvests before you really get to know a particular strain. Just like getting to know human friends, it takes time. I have grown the same strains for close to a decade, and am truly getting to know every nuance the different plants exhibit. I can recognize them from a distance. I must say that I get a lot of help from my friends, both in making seeds and in learning new and better ways of working with this sacred plant.
I named this new method "Rodelization," after a friend who helped me realize and make use of this way of creating female seeds. After growing crop after crop of the same plants in the same conditions, I noticed that if I flowered the plants 10-14 days longer than usual, they would develop male "bananas." A male banana is a very slight male flower on a female marijuana plant that is formed because of stress. Usually they do not let out any pollen early enough to make seeds, but they sometimes do. They are a built-in safety factor so that in case of severe conditions, the plant can make sure the species is furthered.
To me, a male banana is quite a beautiful thing. It has the potential of making all female seeds. Many growers out there have male-banana phobia. They see one and have heart palpitations, they want to cut down the entire crop, or at the very least take tweezers and pluck the little yellow emergency devices out. I call them "emergency devices" because they emerge at times of stress.
In the Rodelization method, the male banana is very valuable. After growing your female plants 10-14 days longer than usual, hang them up to dry, then carefully take them off the drying lines and inspect for bananas. Each and every banana should be removed, and placed in a small bag labeled very accurately. These sealed bags can be placed in the fridge for one or two months and still remain potent.
For the next phase, you need to have a separate crop thats already 2 1/2 weeks into flowering. Take your sealed bags of pollen out of the fridge, and proceed to impregnate your new crop of females. To do this, you must first match the female plant and the pollen from the same strain in the previous crop. Shut all the fans in the growroom down. Then take a very fine paintbrush, dip it in the bag of pollen, and paint it on the female flower. Do this to each different strain you have growing together. I have done it with up to 10 different kinds in the same room with great success.
I use the lower flowers to make seeds, leaving the top colas seedless for smoking. This method takes time (two crops), but is completely organic, and lets you have great-quality smoke at the same time you make your female seeds. If youre one of those growers whos never grown seeds for fear of not having something good to smoke, you will love this method.
You can also use this pollen to make new female crosses by cross-pollinating. The older females with the male bananas can be brought into the room with the younger, unpollinated females after they are three weeks into flowering. Turn all of the circulation fans on high, and the little bits of pollen will proceed to make it around the room. Do this for several days. Six to seven weeks later, you will have ripe 100% feminized seeds; not nearly as many as a male plant would make, but enough to start over somewhere else with the same genetics.
As a farmer who has been forced to move his genetics far away from where they started, I know very well the value of seeds. My friend Adam from ThSeeds in Amsterdam has a motto that I love to borrow these days: Drop seeds not bombs.

Oh yes- Oh yes... yes... hehe... I just need to get the room finished completely and the strain issue figured out. It may just happen by accident because it has proven very hard to clone this AK so I will have to put some in now and add some in later. Lets see how this works out.
Thanks guys for the opinion about the hermies... I believe this strain is already hermied and wont recover. but its very hard to let go of such a beautiful strong plent.
Havent had time for the pictures ... will have them up soon

What seedbank do you want to orsder from?
I have been looking for different cindy strains for a long ass time but can never find them.

Highgrade-seeds.com has this purple cindy strain that I really want to get. There are way different reports on whether the site is a scam or not. And anyone who is like really down with it has like 5 posts. As we just saw on this thread. Its very weird. Lots of complaints... I tried to email the guy who runs it because he says he can guarentee their arrival and I asked how... still no response.
Hempdepot also have a biggest collection of C99 I have ever seen, i am hunting down a strain i had before that was given to me by some guy on OG.

Go with hempdepot its one of the best seedbanks there is...damn I forgot they had cindy strains but I prefer to use a prepaid credit card.,..I hate sending money in the mail.

Hey guys I am happy to announce that I have rooted about 50 new clones for the next room, all AK-47 strain so that I can use feeding lines instead of feeding by hand.
But even more amazing then this!! GUYS! seriously... I have never seen plants this big ever... I dont even know if in pictures I have seen them like this. Pictures speak for themselves...
this is one plant I swear... pssshhh pictures dont do this justice
i could just sit in this room all day
thats a guys hand just so you dont think i tried to stick my lady fingers in there for a comparison
Some of these need like 2-3 sticks to hold up all the peices... i wish i had tomatoe cages
so perfect i geta tear in one eye.
GOOD THING TOO... after loosing half my crop i needed this... im sure I will get near what i would have excpected from a normal horizontal grow... i cant ask for better than that after all my set backs!
And for all of you that wanted it... more shots from the rooms perspective!
I am so happy... so happy ... so happy...
almost a shame to cut down such lovely ladies..... hmm not
