First post, First grow, 8 weeks in - Hermaphrodite?

Hi all

I have been lurking here for a few months and been trying to learn as much as I possible can.

I've been smoking cannabais for anti stress at nights or evening with my gf for a while.
I decided to start growing myself so I did not have to meet dealers and besides its cheaper.
It is also alot of fun, truly fascinating plant and I want to thank you all for contributing. You helped me alot through the way without even making my own posts.

Now it is time for me to step up aswell.

I will soon make a post in the sick plants sticky about some odd issues i've been having and I have my theory about that aswell.

I've done my best and please keep in mind that this is my first grow and I have none to speak about it since I keep it very private on this part of the world sadly.

However its all for medicial private use for me and my girlfriend, though i'm the one taking care of the plants most of the time so i'm doing my best not to fail.

What I did was that I bought 7 different good rated seeds and read about the different effects and hope I found some good strains =). Some of the strains I've seen you recomend or use like White widow etc.

Now to the main issue and i'm kind of scared still I hope i'm wrong. I really do, because i've spent tomorrow exactly 8 weeks since seed.
There is probably alot more to say but i'll get to the point before you all fall asleep.


I'm scared that I might have stressed the plants, lately i've been getting lots of theese:

I hope it still is a feminized but is it normal that so "many" of theese come 8 weeks in? My camera sucks and I apologize for that.

One of the plants have looked a bit sad for a while now. It got like that one time that I missed to water it for 1 day. It has not recovered yet. I turned of my ozone generator. They are all in a secret jarden tent 90x 90x 160x with filter etc etc.
I was unsure how it was going to go so I pushed in a few more to be on the safe side. So far everyone is still alive and doing ok except for one plant (if its not a hermaphrodite) and I'll put the first photo of it. But not due to its sickness or brown yellow spots on the leafs but due to my hermaphrodite fobia

Thanks in Advance.











Please let me know if you need more pictures. Thanks again, I appreciate it!

Hope this is not considered spam, I'm just trying to put in as many photos to get better help. Also two of them are so that you can see that almost all has grown ok but i'm worried. Thanks again.

No Idea how to edit but just to clarify: Searched for the edit but sorry could not find. They are all seeded almost at the same time. The only thing that differs mainly is the pot sizes and strains, I do ofc use nutrition once a week. I think mainly its either due to pot size and strain hence the different sizes.

Picture 1-2-3 is the same plant and 4th picture is a different plant and different strains on first post.

Just to clarify that aswell. Seems I cant edit my posts :(, sorry for adding all the time. But i'm freaking out here and hope its because i'm a noob and its not converting into Hermaphrodite. If so I need to remove it asap so if some or someone could reply i'd appreciate it, I really really want to make this happen with minimum casualties if it has begun. Hell i've even bounded with the plants, a part of me will hurt when harvesting ;P Atleast hopefully i've given them a good life (I hope) and will continue to do my best and learn more.

It is really hard to tell with your pictures......but it looks like females to me. Have you picked any of these suspected seeds and verified that seeds are actually present? Female sex organs on the plant swell late in flower, even if they are not pollinated. Good luck.

No seeds are present as of now that I know. But I was scared that it was in the start of producing them.

I'll try to get better pictures, sorry ny camera aint that great. I was hoping they started to swell, due to being in day 79 since seed and still grow those pistille looking things at week 8.
But I just want to make sure that i'm doing the right thing here on my project. It is my first time and sorry, I would not make a post If i truly was not worried, considering the laws where i'm from sadly. Maybe i'm being over paranoid even if its for personal use.

I'll get some new photos, hopefully alot better ones. Cheers

"I've been smoking cannabais for anti stress at nights or evening with my gf for a while."

lol I made us sound like bigtime stoners and i misspelled Cannabis =)

Ofc we both have jobs and i'm into finance. I also use it for backpains and neckpains due to work. We are like two any ordinary people, just that I drive my own firm but thats normal aswell I guess.

Can someone please confirm that those two are still feminized ones so I can relax here please. I know theese women develop fast in the other room and the lights will go down in 19 min and I dont want to have to let 8 plants down because of two plants.

Thanks and sorry for spamming.

Thank you so much.

Haha nah it's just that alot of people look down on people that use ganja where i'm from and it's so ignorant.
Not all are stoners and I sure do not want to sound like one. Oh and its nothing to create drama, I think its like with everything. Moderation is the key. Dont ask me why I even started to talk about that haha.

Thank you so much Avinash, this is my first grow and i'm having a blast and cant wait!

Any of you proffesionals that can see how much time left before Harvest or are the pictures to low quality to even show. I got my x 60 lence but maybe I can get a small hint ;P

All I know is that in about 9 days its possible that the "first" one will be getting ready to harvest. But maybe I screwed and delayed it all up so might be longer. How do you guys usually get ready to harvest? I've been reading that its mainly when the crystals are 50/50. But do you guys have any trick to observe when its getting close? Just asking :)

6 different strains in there on 9 plants .. Oh my i'll be like 9 years old all over again haha.

I'll go hydro probably on my next run since watering theese manually with different strains really really made me feel like im 80 years old with even stronger back pains.

Whats usually recomended for a 90x 90x 160x room? 4-5x 9 liter pots? Which would equal 20 pound pots almost. I made this many the first time to have a nice stash untill next.

oooh and please favourite seed? I've been thinking on each grow, try one new and keep the ones i like.

This time i'm planning on Super Silver Haze also, do you think I should wait untill all of theese are done or wait untill 4 of them are so I can install the hydro?

Cheers and thanks again. So much appreciated!

get some full plant shots as well as some close ups of the developing flowers and we will help you decide when to harvest... a good rule of thumb is, when in doubt, wait a week... erb that is a little overdone is a lot better than a little underdone...

also, if you're not too keen on hand watering but you want to retain the ease and forgivingness of soil, look into blumats...

Cheers bro,

I will do that tomorrow because they are currently sleeping now or else i'd do it right away. They need their beutysleep :)

I'd appreciate that. I'll try to get alot better shots than today. Should I maybe when I take the shots turn the cooltube off? Or will that stress them even if its for a short period?

My first time so not sure what I can or cant do so I have just been walking the "safe" path so far.
I've had minor problems but thanks to learning from you guys i've managed just fine.

Thanks again.
