LST and trimmed 5gal's and single cola style kids

Ok I started this a little late, but here we go. The four 5 gallon buckets are clones(about 8 weeks old from clipping) and the little kids are from seed(about 4.5 weeks old). I have LST'd the clones from early age and have done a lot of trimming the past week. I just did some more tying today. Going for single cola style on the kids and hoping their height almost catches the 5 gal's. They are 1 week into flowering here and went under 2 400's and 2 4ft T5HO's about 2 weeks ago.(clones were under 1 4 ft T5 and kids under 4 26w cfl's) Starting gh nutes at 50% strength this week working to 125% str later. More trimming to come on the kids, see about the clones...

Oh yes strains are grapefruit, purple kush, bubba kush, and afgani goo. I didnt lable them, but ill know soon enough. =)

Was only going to post once a week, but I got bored. Here's some pics. Day 11 flowering. =)


My nutes and water. I use tap water and aerate it well overnight with H2O2 at about 10ml/gal. Add nutes and ph to 6.2.









For some reason the kids from seed have not shown signs of sex yet.(just over 30 of them) This is the first time it has taken this long for me. I did water and foliage spray with superthrive (heard ST can prolong flowering) and kelp, but that was 1 week before flower. The clones are definitely on their way tho.

Here they are 2 weeks in. The seedlings seem to be only about 1 week flowering, just barely showing signs right now. Going to run them an extra week for sho. Found 7 females so far and no males yet. =) Possible hermie tho. =( Clones in the 5 gal's coming along nicely. Trying out some cheap CO2 using the sugar/yeast method. I'm using four 1gal and one 2L container with a sugar/yeast/water ratio of 4c/2Tbs/.5Gal. Shaking up twice a day with fans off for about 40 min. Im gonig to try it out for weeks 2-6. See if it makes any difference.

Here they are at 3 weeks. The smaller kids are a week behind (took 14 days to show first flowers). They're catching up in height though. Should make for a good canopy. Been using 4 1gal jugs and a 2L with suger/yeasy for co2, not sure if helping but plants seem to be growing fast and are healthy.













In the last two pics, can anyone tell if this is a hermie? I think it is, but its still early so im not sure. I used seeds from hemie or female that was pollinated by a hemie so I'm worried. So far its looking like 32/34 female with 2 possible hemie's.

Male balls show before female flowers so if you don't see any you should be in the clear.
