Nice Juan, they definitely look like they're enjoying their home. I'll stay tuned in for the flowering. I'm two weeks ahead of ya :)
 
aah true that man, i hear ya :p sorry for taking so long to reply, but i've been busy lately with my grow! should check it out sometime :dance013:

i keep my plants as close as possible, but lately ive been noticing some bleaching and have moved them down a tad. im pretty sure bleaching on the main head is a bad thing with new vegitative growth =.=

anyways, your plants are looking great, good ratio of girls to guys so far!! congrats man, doin a bang up job :yes:

Hey man, glad to see your still checkin in! I have been checking your thread bro, I just dont really post anywhere else but this thread haha.

If you look at my top down pic, you can see how all of my new growth comes in a little bleached looking as well. I think this is just because the plants are growing so fast they cannot fully develop the color fast enough. So a few days after the leaves show up and are a bit bleached looking, they develop a bit more and the nice dark green color fills them in.

You're fortunate the get 3/4 females. The biggest one was male, but that always seems to be the case. Good luck!
 
And then there were four! Or in other words, I found another male yesterday haha. He got cut out, and the space he was using up got utilized for a bit of LST on the two bigger females. Trying to get some more light to some of the lower bud sites since I have extra space to work with now!

Day ~11 of Flower-
The one in the front and the way back I still have yet to see sex on, should find out soon.

Everything looks great. Im currently going through my own test run with a pc box and i think our plants are about the same age, so it'll be nice to have someone to check off of haha
:lurk:
 
Sorry for the hiatus, my camera's battery was messed up but I got that sorted, pictures can be taken once again!

Everything has been going great. I did have a little overwatering/underwatering problem a few days after the last picture was taken. Stressed the plants out for a few days but all is well and they recovered just fine.

These were all taken today, about day ~35-36 of flowering.

The biggest/oldest one has a bunch of lower budsites sprouting up nicely, as well as the main cola fattening up. Not too much trich coverage yet though.

The second oldest/biggest one took the most damage/stress from the underwatering. Packing on the trichs a lot more than the bigger one, even the lower budsites are coated and the main cola as well. Looking very nice.

This is my 12/12 from seed experiment plant, I have not taken many pics of it before because it was very underwhelming but now its looking very very nice so I figured I would share a few snaps of it as well :).

Looking forward to the next 3-4 weeks, I have no idea how long these will go but that's my estimate.
 
Just a little update of what I'm cookin up :). Got some new fun in the works. Germed two Bogglegum's and two of coxswains WLY C99 x C99 freebies. All 4 germed/popped within 24 hours, and sprouted within the next 24 hours, good stuff :). All the other plants are looking great, few more weeks and they'll be getting the chop. These babies will be going in my new veg box when I get it finished. Hopefully they'll be big enough by the time my flowering plants are done so I can take clones and flower them out and see what I have here. Hopefully find a good mom or two.

Top two are the Bogglegums, bottom two are the C99xC99's.

Haha sorry guys, I got a little bored with taking pics of the main plants. The oldest one hermied and grew a few balls, spit out some pollen and pollinated a few budsites. Nothing huge to worry about since this is just a test run with unknown seeds, either way it was a successful test run. Been flushing the plants for the last few waterings, and I think I am going to go ahead and start harvesting in 3-5 days. I will be sure to get some pics of the harvest/yield though.

Anyway, the new babies are looking great and they have been occupying all of my attention recently. Here they are :).

Left two are Bogglegums, right two are C99xC99. ~10 days old
 
So I chopped all 4 of the plants that I had in the box. I cut one down a few days earlier than the others so I didnt get pics of it, but heres a pic of all the fresh chopped buds. Currently they are all drying in the growbox,

Wet:
Top-13g
Mid-10g
Bottom-38g
4th plant(not pictured)-19g

So total about 80g wet, hopefully about 20g once it drys and gets a little cure time. Good first run for this box :).

Anyways, onto bigger and better things. Ordered 4x 24w PL-Ls, 4x 2G11 PL-L bases and a Fulham WH8 ballast few days ago, should be here soon and I am going to add that to the box. Making it a total of 252w of florescent lights!

Few pic's of the two week old sprouts that I have going, they had just been transplanted in this pic.

Plans are to take a clone off of each when they are ready and sex them. Once sexed, if I get a good female I plan on keeping it as a mother and doing this perpetual Dr.Bud style in 32oz powerade bottles.
