Ok so i'm not a Cali Connect fanboy I can asure you but I have grown their feminsed strains sucessfully without any hermies and it was some of the best weed i have grown and smoked.
Given that the OP only realised his grow was compromised with male sperm when he found actual seeds in his buds...
DAY 36 of 12/12
The girls seem to be recovering from the extended dark xmas period pretty well.
They have hardly grown at all vertically but are getting their green-ness back and are starting to fatten up.
Lots of new pistil and leaf growth in the crowns too.
They are supposed to finish up...
Cheers Ray!
Time will tell bro.
It's also so bloody hot here at the moment which is not helping matters much.
Sticking by them in their hour of need. Never leave a flowering female behind! Hooah!
Hey FG that's some interesting reading on C99 there sir.
Not the usual "holy grail" paragraph that normally appears out of Google :)
You've got a tasty selection growing there bro. A veritable smorgasbord of strains for the discerning connoisseur!
Also, what's the story behind those 6" air...
Hahahaha!
Just found your grow journal ray and that toilet flush "evidence re-distribution" method is gold!
If our toilet can handle my monster turds I'm sure it could handle an ounce or two of trim.
That is some seriously compact branching there bro! That 400watter is keeping them nice and...
DAY 32 of 12/12
So after 9-days of continual darkness (due to a dodgey timer), my plants were looking pretty sickly. It was too depressing to take any pics.
However, after 5 days of TLC they seem to be picking up a bit now but are still looking stunted compared to where they should be.
Some...
That's a nice looking grow you got there fella!
My girls are at day 30 now and wish they were looking as tasty as yours were at day 30 bro.
Hope you have a great New Years my friend and looking forward to growing with you in 2012 :)
Thanks for the words of support guys.
Yeah I'm not going to give up on them. I was just bitterly dissapointed at their condition when I got home and threw a bit of a wobbly.
But I've flushed the res and refilled it with fresh nutes, ice bottles, sang them a couple of CO2-filled lullabies and...
SHIT-BUGGER-BUM-POOH!
So my second worst fear was realised after returning from 9 days away over xmas holidays :(
Arrived home, eagerly ran to unlock the cabinet, expecting to be greeted by the delightful sight of a groin-tingling amount of bud growth sunning itself underneath 400W of HPS like...
I feel your pain VO!
Heading out of town for 9 days over xmas and have to get my sister-in-law to top up my res while I'm away.
Wishing you the best with the grow bro. Enjoy your xmas mate!
Sounds like a girl I dated years ago. Her mother was very stinky too so she obviously passed on her stinky genes to her offspring.
Shame really, she was a nice girl apart from her wretched stench.
Hey there Ray & Flo,
Thanks for the kinds words my friends!
This 2nd DWC Scrog grow has gone so much better from my first.
All the fart-assing around with removing males from the 1st grow and my mistakes with nuting, pH and lighting heights meant it was a pretty poor harvest.
This in is...
G'day all,
Just stumbled across this section of the forums.
I'm in NSW doing a 2-plant DWC Scrog with Joey Weed AK99 (C99 x AK47) --> (link) https://www.rollitup.org/dwc-bubbleponics/490922-dwc-cooler-scrog-2-x.html
Yes I bought some Reserva Privada (OG Kush) seeds from them about 2 months...
