Yeah she is really getting into it. We have no kids so she gets all maternal. She was just giving me the lip service when I was replanting the young plants. I thought she what gonna hit me over the head with a ceramic pot.

Yeah this guy told me they are U-Dub strain. I had a bag of it and it was knock down Couch locking smoke. It's looks like NL to me, whatever it is, it's for sure an Indica Skunk.

I think I may have a space problem. I am thinking of moving the entire grow into a vacant bedroom, then into grow boxes....still thinking on it, wanna see how many females I wind up with.

Threw the plants into flower this week. I already got a couple of females showing. I am thinking that most of these are going to be female.

I had a PH problem, probably from the start. I corrected for it about 2 weeks ago and the plants responded well. CHECK your PH. I thought I could get away with not checking it and found that my levels were WAY to high. Soil has a tendency to raise PH level with the maturity of the root system. So if your water is high in PH already, you will be totally screwed!

I also scored about 30 seeds of Blueberry this last week. I am gonna stay with soil. I learned a lot about mixing soils this round and I am real anxious to apply it to my next Grow. Gonna be lots of Blueberry's this summer!

Anyways! Here's the girls, one week into flower!

The noob showing everybody how to grow under cfls- I love it! They are looking real good leafy. I wish I got 30 BB seeds from a friend I got 10 for some dead presidents though lol. Might wanna get some more cfls soon. I say replace all the single bulbs with double bulbs and you'll be set.

Thanks PD!

Yeah listen to me aye?

You learn from doing. I have identified 4 females so far. I agree on the lights. Gonna double them up on the ends. It should take care of it.

Thanks for the look!

I went over all the plants this afternoon and I have ID'ed at least 6 females out of the 10 I have going. So even if the last four go male I am good to go. I think I will wind up with at least 8 females though. Two of the plants are still a bit young. Some shots of the Pistils and a shot of the overall female count.

I think it's just another version of Northern Lights, isn't PD?

I heard it was a strain created at University of Washington. Very robust plant no matter what it is. They smell nice and they are really coming about.

Gonna start Blueberry sometime this week!

I think it was in the original cannabible and I gave it to a hopeless friend who is a med user. I can't remember what the lieage was but it looked sticky I remember that. That univewrsity info was all i could dig up on it too. Anyways I do remember the lieage of blueberry:)

Yeah the Blueberry is an old strain and one of my favorites.

I had a bag of the U-Dub and it was really good stuff. Reminded me a lot of Northern Lights. Hope to remind myself how good it was in about another 8 weeks! LOL!!!

Lol I still have a male in my room I need to pull it now that my clones have roots. I'm sure it's a male I guess i was in denial. All my wife said when I showed her my mature plants last time is why are they so small? They were pretty short though probably about the size of mine now.

Wow, nice grow so far. whats the total wattage for all the lights?
I am running 8 23w 2700k's right now. I will add 4 more for this week. I try to just go by Lumens though. I am averaging about 2500 a sq ft for my little area. I do need to increase it a bit though.
