such a shame, as this 3 foot tall plant is very healthy and has huge fan leaves but also has balls, so to the doggie poop container it shall go

Put her out on Davie St. he'll fit right in. seriously though Thats bullshit! you should go down and talk to them. im sure theyll do something for you. It just sucks though that you put all that effort into what is supposed to be a fem and she has balls! Not good for a guy who can only grow mininal amounts with indoor sun.

yeah, I'm not the type to take back any product, I typically just avoid them....but in this case I think I will go visit them as the track record has not been stellar

last year, I bought a 5 pack of each, the Revolver, EM and DLF, below is the summary
  • Revolver - 2 died as sprouts, 2 were not autos and 1 did great
  • EM - 2 non-auto's, 1 non-fem, 2 did great
  • DLF - all 5 sprouted, only issue was my current runt but it was only slow out of the gate, doing great now

That's a real kick in the balls, go rake them over the coals...gender benders!

the male will develop balls/sacks of pollen, not to be confused with a "calyx" that could be lacking the "pistils"

the female pre-flower are two pistils which look like white angel hairs...not to be confused with the "stipules" which are larger and firmer, looking more like thorns

Thanks buddy, nothing's as clear as a picture! .

the gals are doing well, we had some crappy days but today the sunshine has returned to make my girls happy again.

The runt dwarf low flyer was born with only one cotyledon which was deformed by the the seed membrane, thus was really slow out of the gate
This DLF (right) is almost as tall as the Jack Herer (left), and it's already taller than both of my previous DLF's...go figure

the house plants are doing good as well....they provide some camouflage and alternate scents, but are there mostly for the fun of growing

yesterday was very cloudy so the plants were not getting much sunlight, then all of a sudden the black cloud is out of the way of my sunshine and we have a perfectly blue sky and the sunshine just pounding my gals, to the point they both started to droop really bad. I have had some reaction before but this was serious so I had to move them into the shade to recover.

They are in the direct sunshine this morning with no ill effects, but the morning sun is less intense

by sunset they were doing just fine

it's been really decent, we get a few days of rain then lots of sunshine, so no complaints. They say it will be a hot summer for the wet coast, so we will likely be getting more forest fires in the north

The plants are really healthy, my sunshine grows always look so much better than those grown under the HPS, but yet the HPS yields more volume, go figure.

cheers
If you're using a 1000w hps, try a grow with a 400w MH and a 400w HPS instead. Get some UV and IR globes aswell and you'll see better results haha
