Super Skunk Grow CFL/400w MH/HPS

timrichards · Apr 9, 2009

Well I'm on to the next grow. Previous one was a disaster, all 5 turned out to be males. The seeds were the freebies I got from my order, what a waste of time. Anways, these are super skunk seeds bought from marijuana-seeds.nl. I went a little on the cheap side, hopefully they turn out ok. Seeds germinated in paper towel and planted in Fox Farm OF mixed with 30% perlite. Plants were watered with superthrive every other watering.

Day 2 under CFLs....

Day 10....

Day 24....

Day 30 under MH....

Just moved the plants under the MH. They're 30 days old. They are all showing preflowers. 1 female and 2 males. The other seems to be a possible female but is still a little too early to say for sure. More pics as the grow continues...

Why havent you separated your males from females... Thats a great way to ruin shit.. unless you want seeds.

timrichards · Apr 12, 2009

I actually do want seeds. I'm not planning on leaving any male flowers around long enough to open up. I'll be collecting the flowers for pollen and using it on some of the lower branches of the ladies later on in flowering.

Just another update. I took clones 3 days ago. I'll probably wait another week or two before flowering....

Dude, come on. Keep it positive. I just left a board because of negativity.

Nice plants bro. Nice and stalky. I had a grow like that a few years ago, nice simple closet grow. I'd get those males out of there as fast as you can. Their nuts have a way of exploding with pollen sooner then you think. They don't need alot of light to produce pollen. Shit, stick a 100 watt bulb over them till they break open with pollen.

Thanks! Here are some updates...

Day 4 of flower, day 44 overall...

timrichards · May 13, 2009

It's been a while since my last update. Some issues have come up. I have to move out at the end of the month, so it's going to be a little tricky trying to get these moved over to the new place and everything set up without really messing up the flowering cycle much.

These pics are day 25 of flower, 65 overall.....
