i think i got a male blue cheese. there are 2 things where the calyx is supposed to be. how long does it take for the pollen sacks to open? i want to give it a few more days just to make sure cos my eyes are fucking shit lol
wait just to make sure they are pollen sacks mate, are they at the nodes? because you will usually get stigmas growing out at the nodes as the plants mature and get ready to flower and also alot of strains will put out a couple of single calyxes there and I've seen a few threads on here where people have been saying scrap them they're male when they're defo female I'll see if I can find a pic or diagram for ya mate

sorry mate just had a quick look about and found them, I had a couple of pdfs saved that went in to real detail and explained the science behind plant biology but can't find them I'll have a look on my old laptop as they're well worth the read, A few days worth of reading but well worth it as they dispell a lot of forum bullshit and it's info gained from university's from all over the world, Also they cover agriculture farming and plant health and the direct affect different nutrients play within the plant and how important it is to keep your plants healthy and not throw all sorts of unneeded shit at them.

cheers for them mate. thier a bit small at the mo to tell, ive even got my microscope out. if there was a bunch of them i'd know they deffinatly where male but its only the 2 each side. their just over a week on 12/12 but the others had the hairs after 3 days and i was sure this plant did but i might have smoked too much lol. i think i had the same sort of thing with the bubblegum i run last time but i cant remember if it turned out female or male. ill give it till its been on 12/12 for 2 weeks, i should know by then.

yeah mate ill have a read of them if you can find them, im always looking to improve my knowledge. dont look too hard tho, if you cant find it dont worry lol :-D

order some coco off ebay. you can get next day delivery. its much better than soil and unlike i first thought you shouldnt have to ph it unless you use something like rhitzonic cos that bumps the ph up

i got blue cheese and white widow on flower now so im giving it to a mte to veg up for me. ill take a few cuttings then to run in my wilma big 4 when these are done. if i time it right i should be up and running straight after these come down. i want to set my old ds120 tent up as a mother tent so i can keep the psycho going and perhaps get some white russian and another 2 strains in there as mothers. ive had mixed success with clones myself i found white widow the easiest to clone so far

hey mdb hows things?

@mastergrow im experimenting with these and chopping some down a bit early and using ripen and leaving the others go just for fun to see how it all goes. the last 1 should be chopped down on the 10th of august so its about 7 weeks. i hope we get good yeilds out of them mate. i got 2x 600w lights in the tent now so im thinking 4 white russian and 4 psycho if i can afford another big 4 system. if i cant ill just run 6 wr in air pots with coco and 4 psycho in the wilma

Sounds good m8, should get good yeilds with the 2 600ws and 8 plants. I'll have 2 big 9 pot systems, one full of psycho and one full of exo, I'd say I should have mine up and running slightly before or around the same time as urs, all depending on how my cloning goes lol. Over the 2 nine pot systems I'll have 3 600ws and an extra one just in case, but don't think I'll need it
