This is why it's a great idea to have two monitors! Thanks.
Hopefully the fires will die down, and Amy will be back soon to join the conversation.
Let's hope so!

It's hard for me to tell...I will say that the fem seeds definitely have the "better" calderas....
I think they are more mature than the reg seeds.

Hey carcass! Looking super good my friend hope life is good to you
hope life is good to you
Okay so,
I took pictures of two sets of reg seed. The first set is the Cookies and Chem and the second set is Fisheye OG
Second set
What are your guys’ predictions?

You have some ill-defined calderas in that bunch!

Yeah there were a couple that had these tiny little calderas that I couldn’t even see. Those pictures were taken with a 60x loupe. My predictions are;

Well if two reasonable people can't even agree on what a broken caldera looks like then what hope is there in using it to determine the sex of seed!
Not that I'm versed in this at all, having had 2-3 minutes of practice this afternoon

Who knows if there is even merit to it in the first place! I think higher res photos would help. Obviously we need to define broken and unbroken a little more clearly

Even if there's nothing to it, it's not a big job to look at the calderas before you plant the seed,and make a prediction- if the predictions end up being accurate, that would be a good thing, but if not, then we really haven't lost anything....we'll just keep doing what we've been doing,and get it wrong about half the time...
Alright so, carcass I saw that you as well as Shed decided that CnC 1 and 5 look unbroken. I’d argue that the Calderas on those two seeds have low spots where the outer rim of the caldera is sort of worn away.
Regarding the FOG seeds, I think the two unclear calderas are just filled with resinous plant material. I tried to scrape it away as best I could, wouldn’t move too much.

This shows that it's not a cut n dried thing, reading calderas...I see the spots you're talking about....
I figure since the caldera makes a complete circle (even though it has thin spots) then that seems like it's unbroken.
But this just shows that different people will see different things,or interpret what they see differently than someone else...
That will make it difficult to prove the theory, because one persons "broken" may be someone else's "unbroken"...

I want to know if you saved what you scraped away and put it in a pipe!
It's going to be an early harvest
Not one of those calderas seen it's shadow.- Thread starter

Monday again! Happy Monday and MLK day!
Update time once again- I'm down to one plant now,since the BS4xCheese ended up
being a male....
So this is what I've got right now-looks pretty lonely in there all by itself...
This one is from a LowRyder#2xNorthern Lights/Afghani cross that I did back at the end of 2016,
so it's from a regular seed,which means it may also prove to be a male...but it hasn't shown sex yet,so it's a female until it proves me wrong...
She's still real short- the quad training helps keep her that way till the flip,which probably isn't very far away- the last photos I grew got flipped at day 29,and this one is 23 days old today....I'll probably wait a little longer for this one,like day 35 or so, since I've got twice as much room in there with only the one plant...
She was topped above the third node on the 11th, and the quad training started on the 15th.
She's got some stout branches, and keeps pulling the tiedowns out of the soil,so I'm going to have to
figure a more secure way of holding them down- that'll probably involve bamboo skewers and hot glue
or ductape (there's not much you can't do with hot glue and/or ductape )
Here's a look at the quad structure-hard to get a good look- this thing has some of the fattest leaves I've seen...I've already removed a few that were blocking light to the up and coming branches...it looked more like a cabbage before I plucked those leaves
She's starting to grow pretty fast-those fat fanleaves are supplying plenty of energy for growth...
Fed 4.5g of mega crop yesterday morning-she was a little pale- and she's already getting a little darker green...
That's about all for her...so where'd that male go,you ask?...even if you didn't ask,I'm going to tell you....
Funny thing...I was going to just stick him in the greenwaste, but I suggested to Mrs.C. that we sit him in the living room as a houseplant ( I was perusing @shottafire 's journal,and saw his "houseplant"-Thanks,shotta!)
She said "fine,as long as it doesn't stink"...(he does stink a little when he's thirsty,but I'll keep him watered)
He won't do very well in there-not much direct sun in that room...but he looks alright so far-
It's a shame he's a he, because he was taking to the training very well.
And that's about all I've got for today...
Should have some good growth on the one in the box by next week-might even be able to tell what sex it is by then....surely it'll be a girl...
Not necessarily....and stop calling me shirley....
Thanks for looking, I appreciate the support !
And I hope everyone has a great week !

If it turns out to be a boy then the box is going to look even emptier. Which is why Shirley it's a girl

I shirleyWhich is why Shirley it's a girl
hope so...I've had 4 male regular seeds in a row,so I'm definitely ready for a female (title of my sex tape...)
I’ve thought about doing the male house plant thing... but i thought it might look suspicious
