superstone~ i think you hit the nail on the head. that is exactly what they need. i am just going to bite the bullet and transplant without sexing. i was holding off bc i didnt want to waste time/space/dirt on males....

but i have been convinced. this is what i will be doing tomorrow night.

the chem99 looks better than querkle but even they are perking up...

EUREKA!!!!!!!!! all i had to do was transplant

yeah bro....transplant, and lightly water....some plants are sensitive to their watering schedule...just don't over water, esp. when you transplant, cause they don't have the roots yet to soak it all up.....good luck, and worry not.....they will perk up

hopefully next time yall see these plants there will be no males and they will all be reaching for the sky!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i believe this is exactly what they need. they were not root bound but were def on there way there. i cant believe i didnt take any roots pics. but, as soon as i got them slipped out of their pots i handled them very carefully, oh well still should have taken a pic. i think you all can your imagination.

them chem99 are some of the stinkest veg plants i have ever smelled. i cannot wait till they are about 8 weeks in, total jam mode being stinky stinky...my carbon filter is going to be workin overtime

Everything looks good. Plants responding to smart pots and starting to puff up. Did a little selective defoliation and more topping on a few lucky girls. Gonna veg out for another 3 weeks or so and then the freak show begins.

Will update with pics when I feel they have something new to show!

All of the "girls" have been topped and are responding to that and thier new homes. I see some good things coming down the pike. Waiting to give em a good soak tonight when i get home from super bowl party.

I am going to give them two-three weeks to adapt to new pots and then going to 12/12 for two weeks with the 400mh then sticking in the 600hps....:artist::artist::artist::artist::artist:

wow they are so happy.

how long do i need to let them get settled in their 3gall smarties before i can begin flowering? i havent measured but they are about a foot from soil. the chem99s are a few inches taller. the querkles will def be on blocks a couple weeks into flowering....im okay with that

they have all bounced back and are properly hydrated. they are standing at attention and very happy in the new pots.

they look a little light green. i understand the chem family has that lime tint to them. should i hit em with a double dose. i have been watering only at 300 to 350ppms. with roots organic grow, alittle EJ catalyst and a tsp/gal of mollases

good work bro.....the chem looks like it has had a bit to much water, no?....but they look good....i would hit them with a double to darken them up a bit..did you add some dolomite for a buffer in your soil? i just did the same to mine, was running light, so i hit them with 750 ppm, and they darkened right up. go to my grow and look at what 10 days after transplant into smarties did for my girls, to help you determine how long to go before the flip.....you are just a few weeks behind me......rock on bro. nugs

after studying your space, i think i would go about 7-10 days after transplant, be prepared for some crowding to happen, but after three weeks of 12, remove some understory, and get some small fans underneath your canopy, make sure your RH is around 40 at that time (3-9 weeks flower)....will be watching!

they def havent had too much to drink. if anything they have had too little. they were wilted for a couple days and are just now bouncing out of it. i am going to give them a double dose of nitrogen, prolly bring the ppms up to around 700 and see how they react. this is the first time i have used a soiless meduim so i am not sure how to proceed with nutes.

i am going to give them 10 more days and flip around the 15 or so...that will have given them 2.5 weeks to get used to thier new home and hopefully thats enough time for them to become accustomed..

i will be lollipopping around 3 weeks and really cleaning up the growth that doesnt bathe in the light...

im getting ready to check out your thread. thanks for helping me so much!

who makes querkle ? i remember WT420 working with it , was he the creator?

as far as i know it was *** that created the querkle...they have a very interesting smell to them 4 weeks from seed...cant wait to see what they smell like 6 weeks into 12/12

querkle is re-dank-culas...thats why i was like "dude don't kill the querkle"....you are going to be impressed. man, the chem must really be a limey....looking forward to seeing what the big dose does for her......i think 10-15 days is plenty of time for a good root mass in small smarties....i know 10 days was good for my seven gal......they are exploding right now...itching to do my update this weekend.....keep up the good work....nugs
