yup that! and I'm interested to see what you describe the smell as.it took me a week of smelling ripe MBS bud to get my head around it,complex but defiantly a mix of peanut butter with diesel and a whole lot more woody earthy tones, some very interesting combination of smells I found in it. Good luck

Hi there guys. Thanks for the input on the red stems.
And i will try to describe smell as soon as i get my nose around it.
Last night during another hard inspection, i was smashed on SAD bho, i caught a couple of open balls and pollen already on the near areas below.




So without further ado i brought the poor thing down.

Sorry for the lousy shot.
Nice resin cover for the stage so some kind of extraction is in order.



The others are looking good.
Happy Sunday to all.

Have a great weekend guys.

looking mighty nice there paulo! sorry to hear that you had to chop the ladyboy. have you ever tried using dutch masters reverse? it in combination with there penetrator( called something different now, but cant remember ) will stop male formation in hermies and will also prevent pollenation if you do have some pollen escape!

Just a note for some ,
i know you testers are all well aware ,,
but some not so ,,
plants from seed will stretch more than those from clone ,
one of the things i really love about growing from seed actually ,
im keen to see how some of the gals we are seeing tested grow from clone and the differences from seed ..

On my last grow because i had some similar problems in one of my MNS SSH and she was the best looking of the lot i´ve bought myself the Reverse. After reading more about it i decided against it and the bottle is still laying around somewhere.
If i got more available seeds from the strain i don´t see the point in keeping the more prone to problems phenos. It seems risky to say the least and in the long run will give bad name to the strain itself. Just my opinion of course, but i rather minimize the damage and pop a few more seeds.

It´s a different vibe seeing them growing large from seed, there´s always a part of me that wishes to see how high can they reach The clones will come next, no worries.
Now a lousy pic of the younger MBS


And finally the Z99 lady



Sorry for the shittiest shots of the day

i just use it to salvage the plant and allow it to finish normally. it is great to have around in case you have a timer failure or some other problem that forces all your plants to go into male mode! i also understand where you are coming from, and would never use a plant that has the tendancy for breeding, since noone wants hermies. just saying it is good to be able to save it if you want on need to, especially for the price of reverse!

[paulo73]

I´m on the same page my friend. I just thought that in both cases it was not that important to salvage those plants.
