Sanibel Green 2.25lbs 1234a5678b 950 grams anyone else in????????????
Myzz617 says just under 2Lbs

HealingKronic is in at 29 oz
HorseBadortiz is in at 1242 grams
Blackbeast is in at 843 grams

Thanks to all that have chimmed in and helped along the way
 
843 grams (of killer bud mind you) for the win Mr. Barker:goodluck: Hell I hope you get 1600 grams but the earlier is my best guesstimate and again:goodluck::goodluck::goodluck:

wow HorseBadortiz very optimistic with 2 pounds 7 ounces.... 2000 watts wont give you much more than 2 pounds sadly... still fingers crossed for you SP!

I dont think i will hit that either..But it would be freakin awsome though.
 
Not sure why you guys think it will be light harvest - but then again I could be wrong.

I'm thinking of Munki's scrog - 2 plants, 400 watt light. 9 Z I think.

.7 grams per watt is a good SCROG goal for HPS

Even .5 grams per watt should net over 2 pounds

It's a full screen baby, I'm optimistic for you ;)

SP when you give them a nice squeeze do they feel mushy or are they solid?

Good question.the PP are starting to get good and dense the outside 1/2 is soft but everyday the inside gets more dense and harder.The Jtr most of them are solid bro nice and hard but they are still growing like mad.

I'm pulling 0.75 grams per watt. However, my past experience has shown that I seem to do a higher gram/watt ratio with my old 400w(0.85 g/w) than the 600w setups that I am currently using. I did a grow earlier this year with a 1000w and wound up with around 0.5 grams/watt. I am by no means a skilled grower, and the environments were not identical, so other factors may be involved. My guess however was based on the expected yield per square meter. My hopes are with 0.75 grams/watt.
Fingers crossed. Good luck.
 
I went out tonight and was checking everything out and I noticed a small seed on one of the jtr plants.I searched all over for male flowers or seedpods and nothing.I did however notice that some of the buds look like the may have seeds in them but I am not sure If they are cause when I look at the calyx they have the 2 white haris growing from them and the thing that kinda resembles a grain of sand size seed. I dont have any bananas.I read that some strains kinda go into survival mode and even though they are 100% female the will throw seeds tward the end to keep itself alive.Is this true? I removed it from the area and built it its own little grow room with a cfl about 2 in from the top just to be on the safe side.. oh yeah and it was the dwarf of the bunch I didnt even count it in the number of plants. Any Ideas?

this happened to my dad once where i think his plants were heat stressed and pumped out a bunch of tiny white underdeveloped seeds. turned the batch into cookies and hash to salvage it. some plants go into survival mode unexpectedly...

did it happen to all or just a couple?
 
You guys have great rationale for your weight guesses ;) This will be really interesting to see.

Here's a banana (or acorn) photo

Here's an article talking about bananas

Feminizing Seeds by Soma

Article by Soma

Feminized seeds occur as a result of stress, other than genetics. All cannabis plants can and will make male flowers under stress. Certain strains like a higher PH, some like a lower one. Some like a lot of food, some like a lot less. There is quite a lot of variety in marijuana genetics, and you can't 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 strains for 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 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 plant 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 in case of sever conditions, the plant can make sure that 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 least take tweezers and pluck the little yellow emerging 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 plant 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 to two months and still remain potent.

For the second phase you need to already have a crop that's already 2 weeks into flowering. Take your sealed bag 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 down all the fans in the grow room. Then take a very fine paint brush, 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 ten 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 you're one of those growers that has 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 bananas can be brought into the room with the younger, un-pollinated females when 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% female 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.
