I have sexed everything except one Blueberry which simply refuses to show me any preflowers at all. I am still stunned at the results. I expected possibly 50% to 60% female, but think I got around 75% females. Out of 39 total plants, I have 28 females, 10 males, and one BB still unknown.
I really didn't expect this many females, so I am hoping the flower area won't be too crowded to do justice to all. The two 1000w lights overlap each other's area a bit and I am not using the total area YET. But as these fill out, it is going to fill up more area quick!
Egads, I am going to have a harder and harder time getting things done! It's already, move these plants to get to that plant... dang it, now move this plant to get to that plant... and this one to get to that one... and about 40 moves later I'm rearranging again so they each get the best light!
Today I moved them all out for each strain's "group" mugshot. Here is the whole group when I was done...
Then we'll go to the boys. 1 AK-47, 1 Utopia Haze, and 1 Thai Tanic. They will be cut soon - I just like to make absolutely sure I sexed them right.
Then the Thai Tanic. There are a total of 4 Thai Tanic girls. This strain is mainly sativa and takes 9 to 12 weeks to flower. Since 3 out of 4 of the seedlings turned out girls, I don't think I'll be using any of the TT clones I took. I'll keep the best looking clone around for awhile tho.
This TT gal is in Day 14 of Flower. She has early bud growth and is about 24" tall at present. First a view from the side and then from the top...
Then the 3 Thai Tanic ladies that are in Day 2 of Flower. I am still stunned that 3 out of 4 are female.
Then lets go from sativa to indica with the Blueberry. In the image below:
- The tallest plant in the back is the Blueberry in Day 14 of flower. It is around 24" tall - unless you measure to the top of the top leaf. As you can see, this plant is growing very few leaves thru the plant. However, look at how HUGE the top leaves are and how they stand straight up!
- The front two plants were put to flower 6 days ago without knowing their sex because they were 12" tall. After seeing how tall the first BB was getting with starting flower at 12", I couldn't hold out any longer on getting these two into flower. The smallest has now shown me she's a girl. The other still has not given me a glimpse of any pre-flowers whatsoever.
3 BB from the side...
And then the BB from a top view - the tops definitely get light easily!
While we are doing indicas, I'll move to the 2 Medijuna gals. They are both in Day 14 of flower. One was LST'd and about 11" tall when put to flower. The shorter one was set back early on, so when it came back I did not LST it and I think it was about 9" to 10" when put to flower. Now, the LSTd plant is around 24" tall.
Once again, from looking at these plants, there are very few leaves when you can see in from the side. A lot of light gets thru these. I think the indicas would really do better if grown in a SOG type (short veg and crowded planting) and I am going to try this before I'm done.
A view down from the top of the Medijuana shows there are a number of bud sites and everyone of them gets great light!
And now, the AK-47. Out of 4 plants, once again I got 3 ladies. And I was so pleased, cuz the quad growth plant showed her hair. She ought to have a lot of top growth before she is done! Two of the plants below are on Day 6 of flower (left and back) and the third is on Day 2 of flower.
and the AK-47 with a top view...
Next, I ended up with 7 out of 7 Super Nova Chronic girls. I am still stunned and just can't quite believe the girls. I keep checking over and over... still see they are girls.
Just cuz I find it interesting, I'm going to backtrack with some images. One thing you can see is that these poor gals had to fight to survive. And then the effects of LST on one specific SN Chronic gal in pics... First, SN10 began as the largest of the group of 7...
But the girls were so sick and lost a lot of leaves. SN10 looked pretty sad when I began LST on her...
But she made a comeback and here she is today...
And here's the entire Super Nova Chronic group today, the back two in day 6 of flower, the front 5 in day 2 of flower...
Next, let's move to the 3 Cheese girls. The back Cheese gal is in Day 6 of flower and has grown from 10" to 15" in that time. The front 2 gals are in Day 2 of Flower. From the front, and then from the top...
I love the way the LD and the G13 Haze are growing. The two in Day 14 of flower are so similar in growth, you'd think it was the same strain... but the smell is definitely different.
I don't know if the pictures do these plants justice. First, I'll start with the only G13 Haze gal that I ended up with. She is now about 18" tall and probably that wide too. You can see in the first image that she is loaded with top areas to fill...
This side image of
just a portion of the G13 Haze is supposed to show the thick inner growth. I love the way these plants are built (the oldest LD looks just like this too)... They are going to fill in and be solid bud in their lower regions.
Next, the LD (the stinkiest of the stinky)... I'm just going to put one image that includes a view of the top of all 3. The largest LD is in day 14 of flower and measures about 18" tall and just as the G13 Haze is, it is also probably that wide or wider. And again, it is a nice thick plant with numerous buds sprouting and is a real nice height thus far. The second largest is in day 6 of flower, and the smallest is in day 2 of flower...
3 LD plants from the front...
and then the LD from the top...
And that leads us to the 3 White Widow ladies. They are in Day 14 of flower and range from 24" to 30" tall at present. They are being given a good area of the light (spread out). It is very hard to get them all in the image, but here they are...
...and then just a bit of the top of them in the last image of the day. The images doesn't quite do them justice, but oh well!
Gees - I am STILL stunned with the tally of 28 females and 1 more still to show... It is shocking!!! The jungle has definitely begun.
With that... I have quarterlies (and the staff schedule and a ton of other things!!!) to do this next week and won't be able to get in here as much as I would like. Next week I hope to have better bud shots... and every week after that! Take care everyone!!!
