Aquaman gets dirty

Funny I sex mine the opposite, I grow them till they're a foot or 2 tall, take a clone, and flower the mature plant. Then I keep the cuttings to grow out. I find cuttings take forever to show sex before they have roots. But a mature plant that you just...

I find cuttings take forever to show sex before they have roots. But a mature plant that you just took cuts off of will show sex in a week or so.

Thanks brother. I have 2 sets of clones. I think that's what I'm gonna do. Have a feeling it will be forever so I think I'm just gonna transplant tonight or tomorrow. Maybe top and flip in about a week or so depending how they do.

Gonna throw the pk in feed after transplant

Usually how I do it also , just a time thing .....
Always a drag waiting around for sex with regs , but it's how I began and just can't accept fem seed style.....
Come to think of it ? Why do breeders sell fem packs in 12 seed packages , if everything's the identical and fem , why not just buy one or 2 seeds 😹

Not really big on yield this on. I have a few I like the structure of and wrote down the clones that rooted easily. One of those produce decent buds they will be the winner

I use 1’s and 3 gallons. He uses more light and co2. Without that it would be wasting soil and nutes in my opinion. When i used 5’s and didnt change veg time i didnt get any more yield.

If you are flipping soon why not just flower them as they are and transplant only the females when you see pistils? Thats the old euro way.

Yea , and of course you can get great plants , I'm just so old school and addicted to pheno hunting ......
And messing around with breeding ....

The breeder of those great plants on my thread were all bred with feminized plants. He had an article in skunk magazine in the early 2000’s about his method.

I can add that i have a stash of shantibaba feminized critical mass from his garden. The breeder i knew sent me some from his pheno hunting stash.

Im pretty sure all the stable fems were bred that way. Its the “elite” clone pollen chuckers today rhat are making all the unstable fems with the bad rep. The really popular forum ones. Lol

Lol well I'm gonna find out. Will be auto feed so that will help. I tell ya 16 dam plants and I'm sick of filling pots not even done yet. Thinking of 5 gal makes me sad. I'm lazy and back is hit and miss. 1gal coco pots sound good. Also hate mixing all this soil one negative to adding vermiculite bit other than that it's served me well from what little I know. Stems are much stronger bit not sure if that the silica or just soil vs hydro thing.
