That is a great looking male. Nice flower structure, good branching. Only thing you don't know about him is what he'll pass on for potency, or better yet what he'll pass on period. That looks better than the males i found of 20 seeds, and 8 males to choose from. I'll be updating my snowryder thread with my male selection later this week. You will be able to see the HUGE difference between what i found and what you have.

If those are the only lights on him too, he's even better. When i flower my males i use low watt CFL's as well but mine get soooo lanky some times. That dood has his shit together!
He'd be a kepper in my garden.

Nice find.

I don't know about the colloidal silver sprayed fem doing anything though.
Sprayed for 10 days and only got the benefit from the superthrive.
The unmarked/un-cs sprayed fem popped balls on the node just above the coty leaves? odd

I decided to throw them in the tent with the 400 hps until they are finished. Also dropped 4 more into rw cubes to run with the new veg batch of 12/12 plants.

here are the ones dropped on 2/28 put in the bucket on 3/7 just gettin roots into the water

I'll see how much better they do in hydro under a 400w hps from the start instead of just in a 1gal bag under too little fluoro light.

I decided to not wait a week to cut and got 51g wet from the 2nd plant at like 58 days from seed getting wet. Definitely a good thing I waited until seeds from the first plant looked viable to chop her, because these sweet little Sour 60 plants are going to stay around my garden for a good while. Even with too little light (56 - 168w cfl) for most of their lives, these plants put out some nice tight stinky nugs. The next four minus any males will get 60 days from going in the bucket, unless the trichs say different.

Tested some of the first one cut at just dry stage - no cure yet and it is not like the old lowrider buzz or taste at all. That ole sled got a lift kit and a new powertrain installed.

MDanzig - great genetic engineering from ya! Thanks for the opportunity to sprout some of your beans. Them beans got some traveling in. All the way to England to get from LB to lake smellsomore.:jump:

just killed one of the 3 males, and replaced it with a seedling from the seeds that came out of the first plant I grew out, hoping for another lady, and still got 2 more seedlings getting close to replacing the other males

hey bighill, good to see ya back - she is doing well
&
lowrydergrower the first run in coconot was just chalked up to experience & got seeds
my errors in the first run made me want to do at least one right, hence the dwc bucket to see how much better she could do
thanks for stopping by
next pics will be on 4/20 to make the 3rd weekly update & try to keep it weekly thru chop and dry and the next lady in the bucket cause there are a male and female tucked in there too. probably do a seed run from those 2 to start playing jonny potseed around town and stick em all over the place for laughs

Ya I went the CFL route 1st with no success budwise, just wasted 8 months hoping...so I broke down and bought 2 400w HPS's, though I just ordered a CMH bulb so I am anxious to get that since my plants are all yellow for some odd reason...though a few are green and they all have had the same nutes and the same soil...this thread is great, keep em coming...
