5. 4 week veg time.



So, lets get this going and post up the strains and descriptions of the genetics you are growing. If you vary from the rules you could be disqualified. Keep it clean and honest and have a great time.

From the first post,..... :drum:


Not trying to be a field nazi tho, so if you wanna do 2 months, feel free!:blowbubbles:

Why would you put a limit on the veg time? I read it as you must veg at least 4 weeks, although he wouldnt suggest any longer. I think flowering them too early would be against the rules... We already know plants can be finished in these containers, so why not see how big they can get instead? At least that was my plan


Do the roots grow very much after the flip?

Nice balls bubba D

F**k me, never thought I'd say it to another fella,.... Nice balls.:tiphat:



Sucks you got a boy, Hopefully you've got some use for the pollen and some F-2's or an interesting cross..... Hell if you can do it without wrecking your grow, run him out! Not many good pics of Male flowers on ANY of these sites, and even fewer of a mature male!

Here's a shot of my male I'm keeping for an F-2 run when I can get the clones of the female into flower,.... He's so hot to trot, that I took this pic under 18/6 and it's NOT an autoflower strain!!!!

I tried to grab some pics of my cup a day ago, none of them came out. My little one was a Femmed seed, and is sure enough throwing hairs at me!

The hairs should be more defined by Sunday when I'll take some more shots.:tiphat::dance013:

We are calling it "Rodney" for now,.... It has a real name, but I'm not at liberty to disclose it since the strain has been lost since the late 70's early 80's.


Headband can attest tho, seeds that have been frozen for 20+ years are still good! ;)



BTW, My Nirvana White Widow male went fully nuts out very much like this under 18/6, and my DJ-Short Vanniluna male started to form stalks before I had to cull him for security issues.

Here's my babies today. Similar to stihgnobevoli, I buried my stems a bit but instead of rolling them like he did I just knocked an inch or two of coco off the bottom and then filled them back up. I'll probably throw them into 12/12 soon since I don't have tons of extra room in my cab and this is just for fun, it's not my primary grow. These are from my extensive bagseed collection. Anyway...
