How do you like the 400w and the DR60 tent?
It's a pretty amazing combo. I know it's a bit overkill for the space, but I figure the glass blocks some lumens, and it doesn't seem to be hurting the plants any.
It remains to be seen if I'll be able to yield more than a 250 in this space though. I've always gotten about 4 to 6 ounces out of this size space with a 250. The reason I went with a 400 is for better penetration, so I could do taller cola buds.

The tall Sadhu now officially smells like armpit. It's pretty disgusting, if you ask me. I don't think I will be growing this pheno again unless it is REALLY bad ass. I'm not joking... It smells like mildewy armpit:
I really couldn't stand to have her outside of the closet right under my nose long enough to take any more pictures than that. Sorry. She better be fire bud!!

That last Far Out has apparently thrown out a male flower:
So I will have to give her the chop. Now that makes me wonder if I should reveg this one... What if the male flower was a result of my topping her after she was already in flower? She never did like being topped... What to do now...

I don't want her pollinating any of the other girls. But I think I'm going to reveg her after all. I'm just going to flush her, keep her in darkness for a couple of days, and give her the chop.
To be honest, I think this one is close to being done anyway. The calyxes are all swollen and there is about 10% amber it's just a freak phenotype I think. But I bet she would have been finished, if I hadn't topped her, in less than 8 weeks.
Since I've decided to reveg her, I guess I will find out some day.

I might be too late. 
I smoked a sample bud off the hermie Far Out... and there were like 4 seeds in it. They were slightly immature, but they were mature enough to be the right color. So I'm guessing that the male flower I saw today was not the first one. That makes me suspect that there will be other seeds, in other plants, and possibly all of them.
At least I can say that this is the first hermie I've had in 20 years of growing. That was a pretty good streak.
So that being said, I don't know what buds look like when they are developing seeds. I've never grown seeded buds before. Can anyone tell me what to look for in the buds, to see evidence of the seeds growing in them? Can anyone see any seeds in any of the pictures I posted tonight?
Poop.

Update: the blueberry cobbler Far Out has nanners all over her, so she was removed today.
I inspected all the plants today, and the only ones that hermied are the two Far Outs that I had to top when they slammed into the ceiling on day 3 of flowering. So it might just be stress related. But I'm not going to reveg those 2 plants, so that means no more blueberry cobbler pheno.
Oh well, at least I have clones of the rest of them.

Here's a seed loaded bud developing, swollen calyx with red hair sticking out of them on the right side of bud...
Thanks man. I had a looksy at all the plants again, and it's really hard to say, but I think I do see evidence of seeds growing down in the lower buds of some of them. I wonder if it would be worth growing any of the seeds some day?
Both of the hermie plants have seeds galore growing inside of them. Now that has me wondering if I should try growing any of those seeds either.

Yeah I guess I was just wondering if the seeds will grow into more hermies. I guess i would never know unless I try planting the seeds. I don't even know if there will be any mature seeds anywhere, but if there are, I'll probably try growing some seeds out.
I could have Far Out x anything in this tent, I suppose!

THAT is a good idea man! Don't know why that didn't occur to me. I still have the blueberry cobbler pheno, and it has several nanners on it. I picked one off and it opened up and spilled dust all over my fingers. So I know they are mature pods. That might be a way I could potentially get that blueberry cobbler aroma again!
I should state that I don't actually see any seed pods growing in any of the other plants, but I've never had any before so I'm a noob at spotting them. I haven't even purchased any seeded bud since I was in high school, lol. But I do want to say that the rest of plants look beautiful and are enjoying the extra space on the flood table. The white widow has become one of my favorite plants, by the way. Not bad for a freebie! It's structure is just very regal and sexy. The colors remind me of bud I used to buy in the 90s. It just looks beautiful. Not much of an odor, though. Can't wait to smoke her!
