I will keep that in mind if things don't work out. As for now I will be using what I have and keeping the environment as unpleasurable as possible. Since getting them out of the small grow cab and repotting they have been growing very well. I have constant air movement and I am able to spray them down with water as often as I like. I have only one 250 MH on so keeping the temps low is a lot easier which is especially difficult this time of year. I have removed most of the older growth that was dieing and turning yellow and with the treatments I think I can be successful.

Here's some shots. You can see the difference between the old growth and the new growth already. Check out the trichs on the dope.It is sticky and smells like the bud already.

Im interested to see the results of the dope, Ive been reasonable interested in greenthumbs gear for awhile and if it wasnt for slighlty higher prices I wouldve ordered a pack or two by now. Ive been wanting to get some of his chemdawg but its been out of stock for a long time, looks like the dope is also out of stock, so depending Ive been trying to find a good mother c99 so I may try it out. Ive only heard one negative thing about green's gear and it was about serious hermie problems with his bubba kush, which I have several different cuts of bubba so I wouldnt be ordering it, so anyways Im very interested in seeing the final product. The plants look reasonably healthy, I wish you all the best, take care, peace.

Hey Bluffin,

Check out my link below to see the Doc's C-99....the Doc has always done me right and his service is the best. BTW, his prices dont seem so high when you get enough off 1 plant to pay for them 10 times over.

Damn i thought I posted when I put them in flower here and apparently I didn't just when I transplanted them :/ Actually I think I did post it somewhere i just need to find it. Anyways, just a little update things are going pretty well. I believe that all the plants are in their 3rd week of flowering but IDK might be 4th. Dont have any pics ATM but all in all I am pretty impressed with the turnaround.

The dope clones did get bigger when I put them in flower and they are budding just like the mothers did in the last grow. Just really weird how they started growing in veg or should I say stopped growing. I'm happy to say that no signm of spidermites anymore and it has been well over the time that I would see them reemerging if they did. From the sounds of it I thought I was forever doomed but I really didn't do a whole lot and managed to rid myself of them. (knock on wood) Ill try to get some recent pics but my camera is still jacked up and I can take only a couple pics and it dies. They are all frosting up really well and the dopes are starting to stink really good. If all goes well I will be able to deliver a much more clear report on this strain and some others I have. The top dawg is pretty nice too, so far no signs of hermie traits but it and my cannalope clone are in small pots because once again I ran out of soil and havent picked any up. Anyways, happy growing I am out of pot and it sucks i need to start harvesting a lot more to keep me smoking between harvests I can't really aford to buy it so I'm just suffering through. Sounds like someone wants to trade some weed for some beans and that would work out great if it happens.....peace.

yeah that's good to know. I have been keeping my eye one the barney's farm fem seed I planted I have read about lots of hermies but so far so good. I took some pics today. I have put the pictures of them I took right before flowering began for comparison and because I never posted them here. Dopes look a whole lot better I really need to transplant the top dawg soon hopefully tomorrow and gonna add some fertilizer too. This time I'll add less than last time it seemed a little hot.

How did these come out?
Honestly, they were just okay. The buds were very airy and therefore the yield was lower than it appeared. They were pretty stable and had a good aroma but the strange almost autoflowering tendencies was off-putting. Had I paid what DRGT was asking for these seeds I would have felt cheated.

To add to that, the stems were not all that strong so that's why the stems snap. They did finish very quickly at around 7 weeks which was good and in a SOG style grow these would probably perform very well. When I say that the seeds are overpriced, $200 is a lot to spend on some seeds. These were so stable there really is no reason to grow 11 seeds because the plants will all be so similar anyways. It would be great if you could just get a couple seeds and then clone those for a much smaller investment than it would be much more justifiable. I give it 3.5/5, slightly above average.

interesting.....mine came out with very nice dense buds. i pulled around 7 zips a plant and thought the smoke was very good. As a matter of fact i was thinking about running it again soon.
