picked up three seeds, would like advice
    #21971441 - 07/20/15 04:08 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

So after aborting some beautiful feminized LSD plants last year... :icecreamsadness:


i finally... FINALLY found some seed. i really can't believe how hard it was and how long it took. they aren't even what i want really, but at this point i'll fucking take it gladly!

so pretty much... they came from a plant that hermied, you could see the banana pollen structures in the plant. it had a rough smoke because it wasnt flushed for two weeks, and surprisingly had a decent mild stone to it... weird huh?

my questions are simple...


1. will i be able to tell the sex for the most part during vegetative growth? (6th ish node, right?)

2. will these seeds likely become hermie plants too? plants hermaphrodite because of physical stress, from soils, watering and disrupted photoperiod, correct?

3. how can i amend the soil to have higher nitrogen and fixed other factors to help promote the growth of female plants instead of male?

this is assuming the seeds will germinate, which they should... they are the right color

more questions may come in to verify certain things as i progress through this thread.

1. Are you growing indoor or out? You can force sex indoor and cull males by week 4-5. If outdoor you won't see any signs of sex until the light schedule naturally starts to shorten.

2. Yes those are reasons for a plant to become hermie. No seed from a hermie plant are no more likely to hermie than seeds from a normal female. Ime

3. Buy a good bag of soilless potting mix, use proper water soluble nutrients. Amending your soil will not help you achieve females to any sort of extreme degree, unless your soil is clay at the moment.

indoor. how do i force them to show signs? so then i really do have to wait till the photoperiod is altered to trigger the plant to show signs, so how would i do that? just flip the lights for an hour then back on to normal schedule?

i used fox farms ocean forest and happy frog. roughly a 50 50 mix. i also have at mydisposal: vermiculite, coco bricks, and pulverized lime, sound ok ? really really like the soil mix though.

on another note, i also aborted the last grow because i had suspicion that the plants were being afflicted by Tobacco mosaic virus (tmv)

it's been well over 6 or 7 months, and cleaned the pots out with bleach and water, removed the netting, and sprayed this GOD-awful disenfectant spray similar to lysol... which i also sprayed in the tent and on the duct and on the light housing and wiped everything down for the most part. i may very well wipe everything down with a little bleach and water,

is this advisable to do? or will it possibly affect the material the tent is made from? would the disencectant spray suffice? it's the most caustic cleaning stuff i had besides bleach, its seriously awful.

To force flower: put your seedlings on a 12/12 photoperiod as soon as you see the first true leaves. Roughly 2 weeks later all the seedlings will show sex and try to flower. Then you select the females and put them back on a 18/6 photoperiod for a few weeks of vegging before you flower for real.

I wasn't aware cannabis could get TMV, interesting. I would wipe the grow room with bleach.

that's what i thought. so i can have them begin to flower after the cotelydons? or is it a few nodes along the line before true leaves start ?


in my experience, the flowering growth is indicated by a 'zig-zag' pattern of growth on the main stem. i have seen my plants take about a week to two weeks to return to a slower state of vegetative growth. does this sound about right?
