looking good nat, how many have you got in vegg and 12/12?.
never seen anything like that coming from a plant, what you think, hermie?male?.
I think it may be a polyploidal male but it may just be some kind of growth,will have to wait and see what happens to it i suppose.
Thanks for taking a look:blsmoke:

The bigger fimmed plants are 40 days old from the day i planted the dry unsoaked seeds into soil.
The other smaller outside ones are indicaxsativa and i planted them in a takeaway box a couple of weeks ago.

Because the inidca crosses are not fimmed they will grow much more quickly upwards but only have one top.
These other plants get dotted around the outside of the area for experimenting on and they give me an extra eighth or more and a few seeds if they are any good.
In the end only the best 2 ppp crosses will be under the main lamp,all others will be shoved here and there.
Been in 12/12 for only a few days:blsmoke:

some pics of the plants,that ive topped, at diff. stages of 12/12. what do you think?.
this topping, takes longer.
but well worth it.
thanks for all the help and advice.
i had a good look today, and with the light probs, i had, when i left the wife in charge.
well after having a good look, i think i will have any hermie probs, hope not anyway.
even the 3 fem seed arjans strawberry haze seem fine.
lets hope it all stays good.

All looks ok to me.
I think a lot of hermi talk is just worrying over nothing.
They don't herm out that easily:blsmoke:

thanks.
how long have you been flowering the 40 day old plants.
i started some on the same day, and i have 4 in flower, 3 ak48 and 1 d.poison.
they are only 6 to 8 ", but have been multitopped 2 times now.
due to there small size,and flowering, how much will each 6 to 8" plants,harvest under 600hps?.

I have fimmed mine a lot so they are a bit slow to show sex.
One of my best hopefuls has 18 tops.
I have no idea how much you will yield but you should see at least another 12" in height during flowering:blsmoke:

I have just found another plant with the same oddness on and this ones even bigger.
I am thinking that fdd may have been right with his bleached cabbaged leaf idea or it may also be spider eggs as someone else said i ripped a bit of it of and there is no pollen or juice of any kind,just all dry really.
If its spider eggs they've already hatched or been dried up by the lamp.:blsmoke:

Fdd was right the growths are some kind of bleached cabbaged leafs.
One of them has grown out but still with noticable weird yellow bits on its sides.
I think this may have been caused by fimmming a bit to close to the tip and having them to near the hps.
I will post some pics tomorrow as i cant be assed right now.

One of my best plants is a definite female showing a single pube so far and tomorrow i am hoping that my other largest plant will do the same.
As soon as they do i will repot them as they desperately need it and are pot/root bound big style.

I still haven't bought an additional drip tray so it will all be bodged through for the minute but i will provide full info and pics on it all tomorrow as i go along as well as the new pot idea,that may not be new.:blsmoke:

sure you didnt breed the ppp with sweetcorn?.lol
thats funny its happened to 2 plants.
LOL.
Yeah is a bit weird but believe it or not one of those bits has grown out into a leaf.
Will take some pictures later.
Can you imagine them making my sweetcorn illegal:mrgreen:

ohh i bet ur excited from them to start showing there lady parts huh :)
Yeah one whole pube lol:mrgreen:
Enough for me to repot them though.
They are seriously pissed at being in coffee cup sized pots now due to the fimming,just to many roots and to many stems for little pots.

Busy preparing the new pots:blsmoke:

Ok heres the info and pics from the new potting idea.
For all i know this has already been done by someone else,if it has i haven't seen it.
Anyway heres all the gumpfh in case you want to try it for yourself
Everything that i used and why.:blsmoke:

Ok so i am loving a plant that only gives small yields,so what do i do?
First cross it with a tall sativa that i know to be strong,take those seeds and grow them out and see whats the best and looks a bit lanky like a sativa but still smells like the pppxblueberry.

Take pots that are designed for water features and full of holes,one mini pond pump and a sponge,cut some holes in the pipe and slice the sponge in half to stop the soil and perlite blocking up the pipe.

Stuff the pipe into the sponge and place on the bottom of the pot.
Fill with an 80% soil and 20% perlite mix and a packet of water absorbing crystals.
Add one female plant,stick it under the light and you have an aero soil grow that should hopefully help these low yielding plants to give huge buds and grow more quickly.

Thats about it really in basic terms.
I will answer any specific questions as best as i can for anyone that wants to ask them.

I have never done this before so i am not recommending it and it may suck so stay tuned and check the pics to see how it goes.
If you want to try it right now by all means do so but don't blame me if it gives poor results.
I see no reason why it will give bad results but you never know:blsmoke:

Pics may not have come out in the correct order as i wanted them to but i cannot be assed to re-sort 29 pictures html code.

nice idea man. Can't wait to see how it turns out. The plant you have choosen is a beauty. Are you going to tie any of them branches down at all? That pot would make it very easy work and the plant looks well suited for it....just a thought.

Just so I understand. That's an air pump yeah and not a water pump going through the sponge?

Yeah man its an air pump pushing air through the sponge directly underneath the main root ball.
I never tie branches until i have to and will continue to trim away leaf thats blocking bud sites.

I do tuck and push leaves out of the way and wait until they are fairly lage before i cut them away though.

I really don't think cannabis needs all of its leaves in a controlled environment and i want to end up with sticks of bud with as little leaf on as possible.

I know that leaves collect light and make sugars but its always a trade off,if the leaves are using the available nutes and light then the buds get less.

I would rather snip fan leaves as they get in the way and enhance growth to the buds and the tiny bud leaves that are tric covered.
I do this over the whole flowering period and try to take only a few leaves here and there so as not to cause stress:blsmoke:
