hiya.. new guy here.. this is one of my better grows to date.. i started these lil ones at the end of march. its bagseed, but some of the most beautiful plants ive seen.. i started them in 4 inch pots, then went to one gallon pots.. then i stepped up the four strong ones i had left to 7 gallons.. these four were doing great for a while, very nice and bushy because i started pinching the tops very early as you can see in the first pic of the seedlings.. one actually had 16 heads :D as you can see in the above shot with my toes in the bottom frame lol.. time went on, and the 16 headed monster got balls.. sucked to cut that one down.. so i was down to 3, all of which had hairs at the time.. at about this time (early july i think) i remembered i stashed two of the one gallon plants, and had forgot about them for a while.. and to my surprise they were doin killer ;) so i went ahead and put those in 7 gallons as well.. both of these orphans are full of hairs.. so i'm up to 5 plants at this point of the story.. and theyre getting very nice.. my biggest one is easily 7 feet tall.. another at about 6 feet and then a short and very bushy 4 footer which has lots of tinges of purple in the leaf stems and lots of purple hairs.. i had them in a low spot in the back yard (which is mostly woods) and all the recent rains i guess had caught up to here, and this spot of mine got totally flooded.. i mean 4-5 inches of water up the stems of the plants.. they were in the water for 18 hours i guess.. so of course root rot happened.. the 7 footer got really really sickly, the rest were gettin a bit ratty but no worse for the wear... eventually the big one perked back up, started getting its color back and a few days after that, it started getting balls.. so, i immediatley chopped it down.. that REALLY sucked.. i cut it down probably last week.. three days ago, i stopped at my uncle's plant nursery and i got two of those huge 25 gallon tree buckets and filled them with bulk potting soil.. the two quality plants i had left werent looking so hot, so i figured it was time to give the roots some room to stretch.. when i removed the buckets, the bottom half of the rootball was just nasty muck.. when before, it was a nice and tightly established rootball.. so at this point, i have two in 7 gallons, and two in 25 gallons, all four full fledged females.. one of which (the purple girl) is budding nicely already for being the middle of august in florida.. one of the 7 gallon orphans has the purple tint on it too.. so now the countdown begins to december when i get to pick some nice big fat sensi buds :) hope all goes well till then! any advice or suggestions are appreciated!

first pic is of the seedlings.. then the next 3 are when they first hit the 7 gallons.. the next pic are the orphans :D the rest of the pics will be in the next post

Looks really good, sorry about the babies that you lost. The ones that make it though sure make up for any mishaps along the way. Hope all turns out well for you. Good Growing.
