So we are 8 days into flower. Here are a few pics to show ya what's happening.
A couple closer shots
Here is a pic of my tallest. it is a lemon skunk. If you look between the top of the lights you can see the top of it. I can almost gaurantee it is a boy.
The next post will tell us how many females we are working with. If I manage to get 4 female hp x bd or poor males I will most likely use a lemon skunk as a breeding male.

There is alot going on right now. Found 4 males since the last post which includes two islandmadness. I still have a few that have yet to show sex, but I do have a couple doubles. My doubles are going into the black cab so I can have a sensi and seed harvest. My hopes are I get two more extra fem's so I can have 4 in the black cab. They are going to finish in 2 gallon containers. This should be big enough for 2 months of flower.
I ordered a 6" fan for the black cab. It should be here tommorrow or wednesday. I will take pics of the wiring and install for y'all. I also have to make a carbon filter.
The breeding project will continue as planned. I installed a darkroom vent in the beige cab. There are 15 kids left in there.
This coincidentally, left me with a little extra room. hahaha. I thought what better way to exploit this than to start more beans. Here is our new lineup...
Purple Haze
Godbud (Purple Pheno)
Hashplant X Ultimate Afghani
I have grown the purple haze before. If you want to see pics just check out my thread, "First Sog." Epic smoke. My bro loves it.
Not sure what I want to do with these beans. I may make another few crosses and put the extra fems in the black cab. I do have that 18x18 cab that is just begging for moms and clones. There will be a few more updates over the next couple days. My hope is to have all 3 cabs in full swing by the 15th of this month.

Back with another update. My fan came in today.
It's not a bad little fan I wish it created a little more negative pressure in the cab but it should be adequate for my needs. 250 cfm by the way
I drilled a hole in the side the cab and ran the cord for the light and the fan. Used a couple of zip ties to keep them together.
Seemed like overkill considering I taped them to the indside of that channel.
Here is the fan attached to the vent. The surrounding area of the vent was taped off to prevent any air pressure loss.

On to the plants. I am struck until thursday so I was only able to transplant the girls that are going into the black cab. I am also in need of a timer for the cab as well.
There is one ppp, blue rhino x citrus skunk, hashplant x blue dream, and C99. The others will go into 1 gallon gro bags to finish out. Here is a full shot of everyone that is left.
I could've vegged a little longer but running so many strains that becomes a complicated endeavour at the best of times. Should get a few hundred seeds though.
We should see the first signs of life on those beans by the next update. 2 maybe 3 more days

completely efficient cab man , plants looks good..can't wait till see the nuggets into the garden.. i'll be watching tha progress fo su!!!
Thx for the continued support guys. The grow is going great. Everyone has shown sex and been transplanted. Here is the final list of crosses...
Hashplant x Blue Dream
(HPBD x C99)
(HPBD x Ism)
(HPBD x Pure Power Plant)
(HPBD x Lemon Skunk)
Here is our male. He decided to grow 2 inches in a day and got a little sunburned.
Here is some signs of life on the fresh beans. By the time they become mature enough the male will be gone and we can decide if we want to do another sensi/seed run.
I am going to get a timer and a fan for the black cab tomorrow. I will have six plants to put in there.
2 Blue Rhino x Citrus Skunk
1 Pure Power Plant
1 Islandmadness
1 Cindy99
1 Hashplant x Blue Dream
Monday they will get a 24 hour dark period before they go into their flowering schedule. This is the only way i know to do it. The lights in the black cab are going to run on the oppositte 12 hr. schedule.
Here is a shot of everyone. The girls in the square container are going to the Black cab. One of the Blue Rhino is in a gro bag and it will go in the black cab as well. The first two hermed and I didn't want to risk it breeding with them Better to be safer than sorry.

well why not cross the UK Cheese pollen with a lady. then grow that strain and dust some of the new pollen on that the grow that! ummmm... dankies!!!
Everyone is looking great. I can already see that those powerade bottles hurt my possible yield. I may go from beer cups to 2 gallon containers next time. We will have to see the root structure. I know I will use 3 gallon for the ones under the 400 next time. I transplanted the healthy seedling into beer cups today. The others had not popped or had broke cotyledons, etc. Here is an amended count.
5 Hashplant x Ultimate Afghani
3 Godbud
1 Purple Haze (Yeah, this bums me out.)
I may start some more PH later but I have 40+ strains and I have yet to try them all.
Our newest are NYCD x C99 and The Golden Maze (My own cross Lightning haze x Geurilla Gold) If you see my thread, "first sog" it is in the first picture. I started 5 of each.
The plants in the black cab will start their new light schedule tonight after 36 hrs of darkness. Hopefully, they will wheather the change easily.
Here is a new shot of the cab and a pic of one of my cindy's.
Temps in the black cab are solid around 80 degrees. I am happy with that. My beige cab runs between 75-85 degrees and have no issues there. As long as you have good airflow and don't let them dry you can hold that temp through the grow.
That's all for now. I will have a another update for you guys in 5 mo' days
Peace

Sweet grow you have going. All of you plants are healthy looking too, not an easy task with so many !
Looks like im pulling up a spot just as it's getting good

Having this many strains does make it rough. I try to keep it under 40 plants. Different watering times, different nute levels. It's looking good though. I'll have pics of the plants in the other cab in a couple days.
I have the 400w hps around 16 inches away from the tops of the plants. This is my first time using it. I think I will slowly decrease the distance to about half that. Looking for the buttah zone.
