    Near the Equator

    You should have put those plants directly under the sun, it is a wild weed nonetheless and it has gene to resits sun burn but not enclosed spaces and alck of fresh moving air. I am sure ti will work out fine.

    Growing in the Equator, latitude -1.27 in' perfect 12/12

    Quick picks to close this grow journal: all plants turned hermaphrodites some more male and other more females, but male flowers only appeared during early florescence stage. Buds are not too thick but they are very smelly and oily. long florescent peirod, average of 12 weeks but up to 16 weeks...

    Growing in the Equator, latitude -1.27 in' perfect 12/12

    Hi Dyzel, Thanks for the suggestion, I might well do later on, fater I got the right way to grow in the area I have, but besides increased concentrations of THC/trichromes I wonder what can bank seeds have than locals have not. Note that African Sativa has a good reputation for very well...

    Growing in the Equator, latitude -1.27 in' perfect 12/12

    Germination of the seeds was somehow complicated. The weed I bought look old and most seeds are pale and seem to have failed their development. Cotton and water did not work to my surprise; only putting them in local red soil in a plastic bucket was easy. They germinated in only four or five...

    Ghetto grow box - My first attempt

    Hi Dyzel! Note that that male could be hermaphrodite, don't kill it too quickly. I am starting to believe the Equatorial varieties if subjected to light changes can turn hermaphrodite quite easily, they do not deal well with stress. In my specific case I posted a photo time ago of very early...

    Ghetto grow box - My first attempt

    Hi Dyzel , Just a comment of what happened to me some time back. In Tanzania I grew a very bushy plant by topping the main steams several times, but rather soon when I put it outdoors it lost several branches that broke when the wind blew not even strong. This was so because any cannabis...

    Ghetto grow box - My first attempt

    Looks fine to me, it looks like a very first leaf not with the full shape. If leaves yellow in the bottom add diluted urine and within hours if you see change of colour it means that they are short of N. Note that plants tend to loose what is consider 'useless' leafs.

    Too soon to top?

    they look a bit lacking light to me, the sides may be a bit dark because otherwise they could well be males. if they are sativa check the threat ghetto-grow-box-my-first-12 for early topping.
