here are some more

 

[Roddy]

Looks like balls to me...sorry!

 

[HemperFi]

thanks Roddy -- so I just pull it out of the pot, say a prayer and toss it in the trash?

 

[HemperFi]

Yes, THG -- a prayer to the Hemp Goddess.

 

[HemperFi]

Ok Puff, the sucka is out a here -- thanks

 

[HemperFi]

Damn -- another one. I didn't think they would show until they were on 12/12.

Wow, that's a big answer. I think you may have mis-understood what i meant above about watr/feed more often. In the converstaion you were trying to decide if you should feed once a month and water every week or something like that. Then THG suggested for you to water once a week and feed when you water. I then AGREED with her. Meaning you are feeding a lesser amount , more often, right? As opposed to a greater amount ,less often (like once a month). Also that was a crappy joke i said just cus' you mentioned you were waiting for seeds. Hemper, if you thought i was trying to slight you or maybe it seems i'm picking on you(?) nothing could be farther from the truth. I think your doing a fantastic job, you know what your talking about, your learning your stuff and believe me just cus' i grew 1 (ONE) single plant that looked nice i am the last person to be looking down on you or your plants or saying anything that implies that i know more that you ,so if i made you feel like that, i am sorry, it was'nt intended. I enjoy the feeling of community in this forum ,i think its one of the most attractive qualities about this place. It is what sets it apart from the 'other' forums and i would like to believe that i am part of that community and would never intend lessen your experience here.
On a lighter note- 'Speedster' same one i have- works well.

Here is another one -- isn't it?

 

[The Hemp Goddess]

Yes, another boy. In any other circumstances we would be congratulating you. I know it is hard at first, but if you have ever gone too long or not caught them, and they pollinated a whole crop it makes you feel better pulling the boys.

You will almost always get preflowers in vegging if you wait long enough. I like to wait until they do show before putting them in 12/12, but sometimes I run out of space in my vegging area.

I pulled a big Beyond the Brain last night that was showing some balls.

 

[HemperFi]

Well, you are right, it is hard as hell to kill a beautiful plant, but I did. It ain't dead yet -- I can hear it crying from the trash can -- but it must be done -- sobeit. Better add a few more spins and spits to my cloning technique -- and prayers to the HEMP GODDESS.

Thanks for stopping in THG.

 

[HemperFi]

I don't want to put them on 12/12 until I get the new fan and filter set up. They should be here today or tomorrow. And on the bright side, I have roomm now for the clones I'm going to take from the AK-47 and the White Power. My AC frooze up again this morning. I just turned off the light for an hour and all is well now, but I realize now I have to have the lights out in the morning hours, so I will set them to go out at 9PM and come back on at 9AM -- end of problem -- I hope -- what an adventure.

 

[HemperFi]

They had wonderful roots growing, but I see what you mean about the peat pots. If I ever use them again I will cut the sides of them to free up the root system before I put them in the big pots.

 

[Roddy]

Look at it this way, more room to play!! And yes, an adventure indeed!

 

[HemperFi]

I guess the new clones won't be ready to go to 12/12 for a month or two -- so what I have in there now will be my first crop. If they all stay female I should have a tent full of buds, and the clones will be the next crop along with some Cheese and Camelicious I have coming in the mail.

None of the seeds I planted the other day have popped -- Bad seeds?

Patience!

 

[HemperFi]

Yeah, there is always a bright side to things -- thanks Roddy.

 

[HemperFi]

Here is my first crop -- hope they stay female -- If they do they should fill up this tent -- can hardly wait. I'm out of weed again -- guess another trip to the dark-side will be necessary -- oh well.

 

[HemperFi]

Yep, Puff, as soon as the new fan and filter get here -- soon

 

[The Hemp Goddess]

They are looking nice and lush and green. I'm not sure that you are going to want them all to stay female. I have 6 plants filling up 20 sq ft. I don't know what I would do if all mine turned out female--I still have 6 unsexed plants in veg. Don't think that is going to happen though. I only have 1 out of 4 of the BTB looking girlish at this point...

 

[HemperFi]

I'm telling ya, too much is much better than not enough.

I recieved the (big ***) fan and the filter -- there are no instructions whatever though. The filter came with a prefilter wrapped around it already, but there is another prefilter inside wrapped in plastic. Is this so I can either make it suck or blow through the actual filter? Do I need to put the other prefilter on the inside even if I'm going to have it sucking?

Sure glad I bought the speed controller. The 530 CFM fan on high sounds like a jet engine. Once again it proves that more is better than not enough. I'm sure glad I can turn it down though. I also didn't realize how messy this thing is -- there is carbon all over the place.

Thank you THG -- I think they look great. Can you tell what sex a plant is by the way they look in vedge? I don't doubt it at all. You are amazing.
