Yo Loyalty, you seem super knowledgeable as far as plant anatomy goes. Where did you get all your info? Do you have or recommend a good source?

The Trifoliates and Triploids sound Greek to me. But I'm always up for learning.
Haha, thanks bro. I just seems like I'm knowledgeable:). I read the grow bible and few other ed rosenthal and Jose cervantes books. Also all of cervantes' videos and a plethora of other random grow videos on YouTube and such. The majority of info I have gotten is from RIU. I think I have successfully sifted through all the bullshit and discerned what's true and false. Between scouring the forums and fine folks like your self I've gotten so much information!
Edit: oh yeah, I believe its derived from Latin(surprise surprise), but who knows, ancient Greek was around before Latin (at least written documentation) and the Romans pretty much just jacked the Greeks of much of their culture, arts philosophy when they conquered the Greeks. Took all their gods as their own, only changing names, but still all serving the same functions ect....although both ancient Greek and Latin are derived from proto-indo-European

You misunderstood me when I said sounds Greek to me. I was just using the expression :D

But thanks for the tips!

update: 30 days flowering

Update is finally here!!! Gonna try to keep text short and sweet! The girls look excellent imo. Got their last shot of nitrogen two feeding ago. Just bloom nutes from here on out! Got her first shot of molasses tonight with their plain watering. One tablespoon per gallon. All my clones rooted, but looked terrible except one. I tossed all except that one. Planted it along with 4 new seeds I germed! 3 more blueberries and a blue dream. Again, all bagseed :). They have all sprouted. The blue dream seedling is crazy looking....it came up with 3 cotyldons (still haven't learned the spelling) and 3 first true leaves. How cool is that?! That's about it guys, hope it was worth the wait! The girls are getting super super Fucking frosty!! Enjoy the buds :)

Anyone know what this is? There is a tiny little green worm looking thing (not an insect)on the very top of just one of my buds. Can you see it right in the middle of the picture? Is it just part of the top of the stem?

calyx developing?
I thought maybe that was it. But it looks nothing like a calyx. Color and shape are different. I think ill call it the tip of the stem and call it good. Just didn't want it to be one of those golden spikes that hermies can show. I'm pretty sure its not though....oh well, ill just let nature run its course.

1st time grower to 1st time grower:

After harvesting last night, I would suggest trimming the bottom of your plants (ie lollipopping) It was a pain in the ass dealing with those little buds. Unless you are planning on making some hash (which I am)

I really only kept a lot of the top colas for smoke.

I see now why people like to run ScrOGs!

Thanks for the advice buddy. I pretty much have lollipoped them. Left a few small sites underneath that had nice trich production for hash :). But for the most part I've gone in daily pinching off new budsite that will never see enough light. I didn't do it for trimming purposes though. I heard it'd focus.more energy on my tops! The fact that it will make trimming a tad easier is a bonus though!

That's why I was doing it as well.. however I fell behind on a few plants and wow!! let me tell you .. I got so fed up with trimming these little popcorn buds that I've now got 3 ziplocks full of material for the bubblebags (bud and sugar leaf)
