Yes shitty female seeds that will throw bananas.....You are the first person I have ever heard of in 20 years of growing that thinks growing a hermi bean is a good idea. It effects so much more than just tossing a few male flowers my friend....though, it seems you may be a bit too pig headed to know these things.

One would think that after 20 years of growing, you'd know that's a myth..

Anyway OP, good grow. Buds look nice for just T5. Let the pics speak for themselves and don't let the peanut gallery get in your head.

Lookin' good. You have to be very close to harvest.

Yep very very close. In fact I just pulled the Agent Orange. The rest will be pulled in a few days.

Well I am back from sunny California. The beach was so nice. Well my plants are nearly there flushing is almost done and I will be pulling them tomorrow or the next day. I was never able to kill off all the spider mites which sucks but more treatment in veg next grow will keep any more from coming back and going to bomb the room. Going to spry with Power Wash and then RO water before pulling. Wow my plants swelled up big time while I was gone! The Kings Kush got really fat and think! I will take some pics once I relocate/unpack my camera. I trimmed the Agent Orange last night ans I got a pretty good harvest off of it. Nice dense buds and tons or orange hairy, pics once I find the camera. I filled a jar full or Agent Orange.

u dont dry your weed before u jar it?........hows that work out for ya?

Wow you are totally special.

so u say u trimmed a plant and filled a jar last night?.........whats that supposed to mean?......if u have a special way of doing this i would love to see

I cut that plant and hung it 4 days ago and just trimmed and jarred last night.
Preharvest pics and pics of the Agent Orange after trimming, no weight yet.

must be a little jar

Yeah it is, it was modeled after your penis.........

So 19 grams off the Agent Orange, not bad since I think that phenom is just weak genetics, low yield and sensitive. This strain has proven to like to grow a lot of smaller buds and 2-3 main larger tops. It just has not lived up to its reputation and I am moving on to other strains.

Valron, suggests a 8 bulb T-5. I agree+. I started outdoors in the 70's. went indoors to give that a try 3 years ago.So I'm learning . I added a 8 bulb 4ft unit to my 4 bulb 4ft unit and big difference. Now they grow. Do your plants a favor and get some worm castings, worked in that medium..Check out how much they like that..I saw results in a matter of days. Nothing works better for vegging.

I dont veg for very long so add more nutes to increase veg grow will not help me much. I already have 8 T5 bulbs over the top of the grow, 2 4 bulb fixtures.

top dressing w castings is great advice...... u should google it before just shooting it down.......

Why I already know about worm castings. Happy Frog already has worm castings in it and like I said I do a really short veg period so I have no need for extra nutes in veg. I will be doing 2 weeks of veg next time if that.
Prepping the ladies to be pulled, sprayed with Power Wash then I will spray with straight water, cut them and hang to dry. I see purple in my Kings Kush, pretty cool never was able to bring out the purples in strains that have it before. Must be from the cooler temps in the grow space. I am stoked to get these dried and weighed out. Really big buds, I was not expecting this from T5 lighting! Oh and my grow space smells really really good

nice man looks like your getting some good yields! I just switched from my 600watt HPS to a 2ft 8 tube T5HO's due to heat constraints that absolutely demolished my last grow. Its my first time flowering with T5's and am excited to see the results, i feel like i should add some side lighting like you have.

nutes in veg what?lol..... your lost ....... u dont seem to know anything about anything.....i give u a hint since im feeling nice topdressing w castings will probably solve your imaginary spider mite issue

Little black bugs at suck on the leaves and make webs on my plants are all in my mind hu? I must be smoking some really good pot. Worn castings enrich the soil with nutes. I have no need to further enrich the soil I am using but thanks for the tip.

i havent seen any signs of mites i just hear u talking about em......... personally i think that its just an excuse to chop early every time.................and castings aint about nutes ...... u dont know what u need u just think you do because u have a huge ego and an imaginary friend who also sucks at growing
