1st Grow, Bagseed, CFL's..

for me it looks not like hermie, just some strange buds, need some close-up shot only of the bud.
In the past i've gotten one unfinished project. It was from bag seed hermophrodite plant.
And there is mush of balls and not much of stigmas, if we would look to general view of plant.To regonize is this hermie or not you need to upload some good close-up shots!
Good luck man!
 
well, last night when i went to turn the lights on, i examined the plants, and the hermie was just sprouting balls everywhere. I started by trying to pluck them off with tweezers but there were entirely too many of them, and there were only female flowers forming in 2 places, and balls on every other node, so i just chopped the plant. It was a runt anyway, so I figure it's not worth the hassle or risk to contaminate my other 2 ladies who are going strong.

I started germing 3 more seeds last night too.
 
I waited until they were about 8" tall and had 3-5 nodes. Just tie a support around the base of the plant, and bend it the opposite way until it's as low as you like, then tie.

Nice job!^^
 
dude plants look really healthy
:goodjob:nice work
 
Well, i can finally get around to posting some bud porn!

Went down and tied the 2 ladies down a bit more yesterday, and realized one of my seedlings had broken soil while the lights were out, but had turned brown due to the lack of light. Within an hour of light it had picked back up and started opening.. I'm probably going to grow these 2 on 12/12 from seed as I don't have the ability to veg in a different location. This is just an experimental grow, so I don't care if it goes badly, it's just bag seed.

Anyway, on to the pics. They have really started growing since the last update. I still haven't gotten any nutes for them, as my financial situation changed, I don't know if I'll be able to get any. I wish I would have cloned these plants because they are growing really well considering I haven't been giving them anything but water and cheap lighting. Maybe I'll reveg after the harvest and take some clones then.

The plant on the left is getting some color in the pistils which is quite interesting as the plant on the right isn't. They both appear to be the same strain by the way they grow.

TheCriMsonK20, Plants are coming along quite well bro. I believe you could still take cuttings. MDVL's plants are prebud..and I managed to take 6 cuttings and they are surviving...so far. Looks almost to be a indica/sativa mix with those broad leafs in the mix. More sativa I believe. Just my beginners opinion though. ^5..keep up the great work bro.

I wish i could get another area to veg clones and new seedlings, but right now the grow room is the only place I want to grow. I was thinking of modifying the grow box, as it is 4' high, and with the LST I'm doing, I don't need much vertical space. I was thinking of transforming the top half of the box into the flower chamber, and the bottom for veg. The only thing I can't figure out is if i have them vegging underneath, fully enclosed with an intake and exhaust fan, would the light leak from the fan holes affect the flowering plants above?

I think i need to just look at others setups for veg/flower in the same area and see what they're doing. I have enough light, it's just the placement I need to work out to maximize my equipment.

Lookin good, lst is workin great. Purple stems indicate a deficiency, i forget what tho.

yeah it would make sense that there is a deficiency since I haven't fed them at all.

Maybe I'll just pick up some cheaper bloom nutes. I did a small amount of research and have seen people say that purple stems could be a P deficiency.

I haven't had any issues relating to it though, and the purple stem leaves are mainly the first few leaves that it grew. I haven't noticed it on any of the new growth, they're all green.

Man, i can't wait until i get a better light and have some food on my hands for them. Seeing what I can do with just water makes me want better equipment so bad.
 
I wouldn't get too excited about any deficiencies. Those plants look fine.

Every grower goes through your pains. I was where you are at one time. I'm still going through those pains! Wait until you harvest and smoke your own..... it's like nothing else. Then you'll realllly get the itch to expand.
 
TheCriMsonK20, We just waited for our first grow to harvest, then used the seed money to buy equipment one piece at a time. Getting some nutes to your plants would def help, but hey, I have seen outdoor grows with no nutes, and they did just fine. If you have good soil to start, plants will be able to draw nutes from there for now.
