Fuck mine arse.

My 2 outdoor ladies had been put outside after 2 weeks under 12/12 inside. It was a bit too early so they started to revert to vegging, but they seem to have stedied back to flowering. Then I look at them today 24hrs after filling their tub up (DWC) last night and 20% of the leaves have shrivelled up and are crisp dry! The res had dropped by around a quarter in one day too, so I gave them a foliar watering (2x1.3m plants ughh) but I can't figure out why it was so bad.

They still have a good ammount of water, and the 25cm clone I have in soil/perlite/vermiculite mix is fine, as is the 10cm runt... They are bagseed though, and these are the Bubblegums. What to do?

Shit just checked air stones as the air pump was very quiet. I had pulled one out of the roots last night, but couldn't find the other one. I just found the other air stone and it was really entangled in the roots, but when freed up the pump made the more usual noisey sound. It makes sense if they weren't getting enough oxygen they couldn't absorb the water as well? Any other ideas?

You cant make a plant male or female its just the luck of the draw im afraid,u can buy feminized seeds but theres nothing u can physically do while the plant is growing to change sex.

you can encourage female flowering and bot off male pollen with "blast" or the other one that you mix yourself that i can't remember the name of. i got all females from reg seeds this grow, happy days

yeah man it worked a treat! i think two were actually wanting to be dudes coz they have not budded up like normal, but at the same time they have lots of bud sites and trichs and no balls, so shit lol i'll take ladies and ladyboys so long as there aint balls! haha

new dude - yeah matey, blast is one - there is another that you dilute yourself that i can't remember the name of either



OMG i need to learn how to multi quote lol

Wow my plants have gone to shit. Stressed to the max with 3 then 1 prong leaves, and the dry/dead leaves. All this and it has some trichome production and looks to be budding up in a splotchy manner. Fingers crossed but I just can't be fucked with these plants any more! For once I just want to be able to go a full grow without
moving house and fucking my plants! I'm gonna make it happen this winter, it just must!

The up side is I have 100% success with the bubblegum clones! So at least I'll have some plant on the go again after these
2 poor things.

The bubblegum family is great to clone from
you put a leaf into some shit and still get good buds
I've got double gum going at moment and it's great to work with

Is there somthing I don't know about flower light cycles
I always go 24 for veg cause it takes the light leak problem away And 12/12 cause that's what 99% of the world does
