So which one was the cause of the seeds in his second grow? The rogue leftover pollen theory or that sometimes hermies only produce 1 or 2 little tiny male flowers under the buds? He said he had problems with light leaks, and that's almost certainly what caused his plant to go hermie. IMO.

:o:o:o I think you better put the bong down now bro. :clap: LOL! Let's all remember one thing here folks. Mother nature has been at this "growing" game for a long time, and that's who we're all trying to replicate. I'm pretty sure about this one, I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure, seeds in...

Sounds like you have your mind made up about that light already bro, so buy it. Just don't expect anything even close to above average. You can't make chicken salad outta chicken shit. Good luck.

Welcome to RIU bro. If it's possible, get to your local garden center and get some grow mix from there without any ferts in it. All the MG soil is pre-nuted, which means it has fertilizer already added to it. Seedlings usually can't take all that food when they start out, and that's where ppl...

That's the only way I can figure it, right? If there is no males around, and you've got seed in your bud, it had to pollenate itself. Which means it had both male and female flowers, which means it is a hermaphrodite. I don't see any other way to look at it.

If the plants you grew from the hermie seeds ended up being more females with seeds, they were hermies too. If they were all female and there were NO males to pollenate them, and they pollenated themselves again, then they had to have gone hermie as well. Which to me, is a pretty good indication...

Yo, check out blueybong's setup. Pretty nice for an apartment. Here's a link to his thread. Bluey's_Grow

Definitely early for pre-flowers, but it could happen. I see them at 5 weeks and I have a dark cycle. Maybe the extra light has them that far ahead? Could be that strain too, like has been said^^. Can you put some pics up?

I hear ya bro, I just ate my oxy for the evening and I'm smooth like glass, lol! Later.

You do have a grow lamp, no? Do what joey said and put some plastic wrap over the cups to keep the water from evaporating too quickly, then put them under the light. The light will keep the dirt warm if it's close enough. The seeds are buried in dirt, and that is dark enough.

I did read everything, and I did read where you said the paper towel method "is not Germinating". It's OK bro, don't get all pissy about it. We all make mistakes.:hug:

If you're gonna spend the money, spend it on something stronger than those. You won't get much outta them, and then you'll just end up buying something better anyway.

:shock: Using a wet paper towel to start your seeds is germinating. There are several ways to germinate a seed. To germinate simply means to cause to sprout or develop, and that's exactly what happens in between the wet paper towel.

No, that was for the guy who started the thread. Where is your thread? I don't see it.

I never stated that at all. I said it "could be" Ph locking something out. Could also be too much of one thing causing other things to get locked out. The chart you put up says it could be "any" host of different things wrong. I will tell you this and then I'm out. I may be wrong, and I hope I...

What he said. Nothing like wasting weeks, maybe months, and then find out you're back to square one.

:rolleyes: Like I said, 2"-3" above the tops is fine with CFL's. They can even be closer than that. I have 125W CFL's, and they are almost touching the plants, no problems. Need pics?

How long did you veg them for? If they were vegged long enough, you can look at the pre-flowers and sex them that way. If there aren't any pre-flowers to check, you naturally have to wait to see sex. I myself have had pistils emerge in as short as the next day, and I've also seen guys on here...

What type of soil are they in? Is it pre-nuted? How often are you watering them? Also, CFL's throw very little heat. You should be able to get those lights a lot closer to the plants. Two or three inches above the tops.
