Do you have a peat puck tray or a tray that you can put a dome over? You're going to want to keep the humidity as high as you can since there are no roots and is basically a clone so same rules as if you were actually trying to clone.thanks again! im gonna put them in some peat pucks and see what happens, gonna put them in my chilli and tomato tent which is on 12 hours a day. see what happens :)
hmm dont have either, would a simply small baggy over top work to increase humidity? i could also keep them in jars, loosely screwed on for a bit of airDo you have a peat puck tray or a tray that you can put a dome over?

Is it like a mason jar? Is light still able to get in? I would almost put it in a jar with a clear wrapping over top of it with small holes in it. Don't want the holes to be too big otherwise it won't keep the humidity up.I've put them in separate little jars with 2 small holes drilled into the top for small airflow, should def increase humidity.
Will keep ya'll updated, and start flowering in a week. not overly worried as ive been given the go ahead to do a proper grow, to help pain sufferers. hooray! still have to hide it/go under the radar.
Did you know in New Zealand we had a vote last year to legalise cannabis (with incredibly reasonable restrictions) and we lost by around 2%. insanity. for a country thats meant to be so "Green", some of our people aren't the smartest. legalising it would have easily gotten us out of the recession. But thats a completely separate rant hahah. Thanks for your thoughts and advise everyone :) appreciate it heaps.
they're jam jar, light can still get in through the sides and ive drilled two tiny holes in the top of the jar, added a bit of water at the bottom of the jar to make sure it doesnt dry out, checked this morning and can see humidity starting.Is it like a mason jar?

just a couple of seeds found in a bag of average bud from a friend. Because of legality theres no way a seed bank could be a viable business, so feminized seeds don't really exist here, as far as i know. Even the seeds i'm getting from the old seed guy are regulars. He did seem to know the thc and cbd content, 8% and 8% indica dominant. which im pleased about, i prefer lower thc and the higher cbd will be perfect for the medicinal products i plan to make. Once i've paid some bills ill be getting another grow tent and be doing some proper (but still medium sized) grows. This is more of an experiment to see if i could do it, for fun, and to see how difficult it is. as far as PH levels, NPK, nutrients etc i've dont nothing other than make my own growing mix (coir, perlite and not alot of soil) and added small amounts of basic organic vege fert and they've been fine :) i imagine it'll be a different story for a bigger grow but thats why ill be doing more research while i wait for the money to invest in it :)Okay awesome! I'm excited to hear what the sex of the plant is. Were they regular seeds or feminized seeds do you know?
i know right? like, pretty much everywhere, its insanity. You should see the protests and anti government crap here simply because our prime minister is female, who has done a fine job dealing with a world wide pandemic. while the opposition is like "naaah its fine, open everything up, we need to drink beer and watch boats at the harbour in our richest city that has an insane wealth and poverty gap that we'll do nothing about"Such a shame. I feel like those are always the leaders that get in around the world... The wrong people run this world :/
Fair enough! I have heard a lot of seed banks wont ship to NZ or AUS. But fair enough! Keep experimenting and love the process. I did the same when i first started growing. Just grew bag seed for the experience. Most of it ended up herming and i would through it out but learned a lot from it!just a couple of seeds found in a bag of average bud from a friend.

cheers man :) trust me, if these herm ill still be attempting to use them for something hahah, we're going through a drought and even at the best of times its easier to find sinister substances than it is to find weed here, and they're generally cheaper. nuts right? have a great day!

Best advice is for your plants to be in complete darkness for 36 hours prior to the 12/12 switch, there is all kinds of scientific support for this. It helps the plant get super ready -- I did 48 hours last grow and it works fine....just topped both, should i let them recover a bit or switch straight to 12/12. i read somewhere that slowly transitioning to 12/12 is good to do. but the internet is full of misinformation, hence why i joined this forum :)
that depends on the strain, I grew some that were at least 3 feet tall some even taller back in the 90sIts too early to tell! Unless you send a leaf sample to a lab to have it tested you'll have to wait until you flip to 12 12 and then usually a week in they will start to show preflowers! Nice work though! I think you will be very happy with your experiment! Don't be afraid to top! Theres tons of info out there and in such a small space it might benefit you to top once or twice just so you don't max out on height!
Oh forsure. I remember I grew a plant that was crossed with a Hemp strain and she grew from 3ft flipped to flower and grew to over 10ft tall indoor. Ended up not finishing her because she was ugly and wasn't going to give me much (being mainly hemp pheno) was cool to see though.that depends on the strain, I grew some that were at least 3 feet tall some even taller back in the 90s
how many plants to get that?
oh, I bet. I have gotten that feeling the very very 1st time to see 3 plants grow into an adult, this was back around 1992, which was good enough for me, it was hell though through trial & error seeing it grow to be a big gal then see it die then back to seedling again, which I been there chin up & keep your head clear enough to remember what you read, I learned from going to horticulture for which I wouldn't be thinking of growing weed, wouldn't have met my wife that told me she'll look at her flowers but won't look at mine? tells me they are the ugliest flowers she has ever seen, lolOh forsure.

can you please post some links to these studies showing 36 hours complete darkness prior to 12/12 is beneficial?
