Grow Timeline (48 updates)
this is what im talking about on the pistals and white hairs
She's showing you that she's a lady. Pistils come when you flip to flower and after they're done stretching.
so if she is showing sex without flipping the lights to 12/12 does that mean it is a autoflower since my lights are still on 18/6 that's where it is confusing me
No not at all. She's just letting you know that she's a lady. If it were a male plant, you would see the start of pollen sacks (small balls that hang down). She's not flowering yet. That won't happen until after you flip your lights to 12/12. She'll double in size in about 3 weeks, and after that's done, you'll see white pistils start to form at the bud sites. Always a joy when that starts.
okay u was very helpful thank u so much really appreciate it it just my first one and everything is newi can't wait to get to that stage she's really loving everything I've done so far I just transplanted her to her last pot and im using coast of maine stonington blend organic all purpose growing mix its a super soil for cannabis from where im from so im really stoked about seeing how she does now
My pleasure man. Enjoy your grow and keep us updated so we can stay stoked with you. Feel free to ask for advice any time too π.
will do thanks
she's looking really good she's taken to the calmag and bonnie fertilizer really good
iβd try tying the two main stems pulled to the side to get an even canopy, like halfway up each stem or where it bends easy without breaking, tie string and tape to the side of your bucket, put them even on opposite sides. this will help bring those little bud sites to similar size to the top two bud sites. will help produce more than the two main colas youβll have. any questions or need any help you can message me and iβll show you what iβm talking about with my plant.
yeah i plan on Lst I just transplanted her to her last pot and pruned here just waiting a few days for her to bounce back from that before I do that cuz I dont want to over stress her but yes id love ur help please on how to do that
man she's looking good getting alot of bulk on her
lookin great!!!! ππ½ beautiful leafs and color
thank u bro I trying my hardest with her she's loving the bonnie and cal mag im using now
great!!!! keep doing what you doing
thank u bro she's definitely liking the love and attention she's getting can't wait to put her in flower from the app it says its have 42 days left of veg which works out good so she can bulk up a lil
my plant is doing this right when the lights are about to go off is this okay no other leaves are doing it only the top
Its normal my friend. Plants have internal clocks aka circadian rhythem. Your plant is just anticipating sundown.
could maybe be heat stress. I was starting to get this on my plants when I couldnβt keep my tent cool enough
looks like it's tacoing how close are your lights?
back off then off probably about 24 ' away make a huge difference where your light is
okay thank u
its only 75 degrees
imma back them up
^He knows the deal. They (taco) to reduce the leafs surface area. The less surface area the leaves have means less sun that they can soak up. Sometimes they will also point their leaves straight up or straight down to do the same thing. Nature is amazing. Your plants will tell you everything they need and donβt need. Youβve just got to listen to em. Good luck brother!
thank u soo much
yeah I back them up to 2 feet away she's good just kinda freaked when I seen it this morning
I feel you dude it be like that sometimes. Just donβt freak out and do anything rash. I got up this morning and my next run that is currently in veg was burnt up. I had to sit down and look over what I done yesterday and do my testing. high ph and lights too close. fix the issue let the plants recover and back to game on. shit happens dude
thanks bro ur right and that's what I had to do
she is definitely bouncing back she is loving the lights being pushed back man she's filling out question is that preflowers just wondering im about to start incorporating this in my water hope its as good as it says
lookin good and healthy!!!! happy growing!!!! π―π₯π―π₯π―π₯
yeah that is what im wondering if she's a auto flower cuz im still on 18/6 light cylcle yeah I hope it works to bro she definitely loves the lights pushed back
π―π―π―
so just one leaf is doing this is think it was from the lights before I backed them up can I please get so done else's opinion
is that a purple discoloration??
no its not i believe its just from when I had the lights closer and it light burnt it its not doing it anywhere else
she loving it look how long them pistals are
those are just new leaf growth iβm sorry to say. youβll have to flip it to 12/12 to get pistils. they will be hair like and white, not green and pointy. look back at my grow and you can see the same point my plant was at. after the flip within a week or two you will have the pistils. hope this helps.
so we just moved in to the new place and we have the perfect closet for a grow room really excited π
nice ! any real pistils yet?
yeah she does i got like 20 days till I flip her to flower but yeah there is pistils
if thereβs pistils you might as well flip it then. are you talking about just those green points in your other post? cause i still see no pistils and you shouldnβt have them until you flip to flower. they only produce after you change the light (unless your timer is off and your not getting more than 12 hours).
and you donβt have to go by anything to tell you βhow many days leftβ everything varies especially if you donβt know the type. so i wouldnβt judge anything off of a countdown. you flip it when you want to not and app. you also harvest when you want to, most buds go weeks past the βflower timeβ to bulk up or get the right trichomes.
I just flipped her to flower today sorry I didnt back in time we just got everything moved and unpacked
good, good luck !
thank u really appreciate it it hope she comes out good
shes definitely liking the lights change
cal mag is working good she likes the molasses so just so everyone knows molasses DEFINITELY works good this is the first week of flower I added white full spectrum to the far red and far blue
God look at them pistils shes definitely getting triclones i just added the cronk nutrition bud booster let's see if she likes it
Trichomes won't start to form for a few more weeks. She's just showing you she's happy right now. You're doing great Big Country! Keep it going! πͺ
those long green spikes are not pistils
if you still didnβt flip the light you wonβt have any pistils yet
and yeah like b dude said trichomes wonβt come till thereβs actually pistils and bud pieces
bro I've been switched it to flower almost 2 weeks ago and it is pistils bro
thank u bro so much
if there not pistils bro then what are they its not new growth cuz there getting longer and getting white
and bro who ever told u that plants dont grow pistils in vegetive stage is totally wrong because a plant will show its sex at the end of vegetive stage
iβm just saying because this is what mine had looked like, i thought those were pistils, they werenβt bc the pistils came. iβm not a bro, just trying to help you understand, no need to be sh#tty.
im sorry I wasn't trying to be disrespectful at all I have communication problems Im sorry
thank you so much for ur help it really is appreciated
You have about another week I then I think. After you flip, they stretch for about 3 weeks. When they start getting towards the end of that, you'll see the pistils shoot out of the tops of the branches, and then about 3 weeks after that happens, trichomes start forming. You're getting super close. I can feel your anticipation. Just stay the course and get ready for something beautiful.
iβm going to message you a picture. those are called stipules. keep looking right there you will have either ball sacs appear or plain white pistils. they will be thinner than those green sharp blades. it looks like you may have small one in the one picture but itβs hard to tell. from the looks it has the structure of a female you just wonβt really know until those white pistils or sacs.
okay
Showing sex and pistils are two very different things. The pistils are kinda like plant puberty. They're showing that they're starting to become able to reproduce. On the boy plants, this happens faster because making pollen sacks takes less work/energy than building and maintaining buds. Once the trichomes show up, the plant is saying it's ready to grab pollen and start making seeds. The pollen sticks to the trichomes, and then it's queue up The Circle of Life from The Lion King.
I'll message you some pistils. I have some girls in early flower now π
you will get there !! again wasnβt trying to be any type of way just trying to help you learn as a new grower. manifest female and the pistils will come. good luck !
so that is a pistil right in the middle ???
You can usually identify the sex during vegetative stage, but the pistils are what show on the buds. They are the white hairs that stick up from the bud sites. Pollen sacs usually show up at weeks 4-6 if it's male. You can get the flower sites starting to express themselves. Basically you can sex the plant that early, but the pistils don't show up until the calyces are building on the bud sites
sorry Lilmac you are wrong pistils do show up around 4-6 in veg, some even sooner.
Really? The actual pistils? I read that just the stigmas can show (the ones with the tiny two hairs), but I thought that the pistils grew out of the calyces that form on the bud sites. That's what I read on growweedeasy.com. Maybe I have my terms wrong?
yeah just a bit mixed up thatβs all. pistils have 3 parts to them stigma, style, and ovary. the part you are referring to is the stigma. the pistil is the entire thing.
thank u so much that was so helpful yall
Okay. That makes sense now. I did have preflower sites before I flipped, so I probably could have confirmed with a loupe. I think that I was just thinking about after they got bigger visually.
I'm gonna need a lot more sticky notes
yeah she is definitely getting wider and bigger shes loving them new lights what do u guys think she filling out????
She's going to be stinking up the house in no time! Looking good! π
lol she is already getting stinky π€£ man I can wait lol
She's getting big!
yeah she is that cronk nutrition bud booster is working good
shes getting pistils everywhere now
mine is about the same. looking good !!!
thank u yeah its taking a Lil longer but shes definitely getting wider and bigger and loves her knew set up just increased the cal mag on her trying to get the humidity down today its raining out side so its extra humid I got it down to 60 when I turned the light off and just checked it and it was 55 so im glad about that
got my new lights she is definitely going to love these
very clean
thanks yeah set em up last night got em both on and she definitely seems like shes enjoying em
Nice man! Can't wait for your next post to see them running!
I ll post tonight when u get home I love em there super brighter then my old full spectrum lights
Upgrading the grow gear is so much fun. I told my wife the only difference between young boys and grown men is our toys get more expensive.
shit that's part bro lmao I hit a lick on the lights though I only paid a 100 for the 2 and there both 2000 watts a piece
Double check that packaging my dude. 2000 watts is a lot for a tent. Sometimes they'll list it as "effective 2000w" or something like that. I think if it was actually 2000 watts and you had 2 up and running, you might have already had a house fire
yeah I think that's what it is but they have 2 fans built in each they really dont get hot and there energy saver so that's good I will have to check the package when I get home and my grow closet is like 15 long and 8 ft wide so its huge
Sounds more like a plantation closet lol. I'm limited to a 2x2 and 4x4 tent π
lol yeah its big lol it was a food pantry but I made it a walk in grow rooom
Thats my plan for one of the rooms in my basement. I think I have to wait for the kids to move out of the house before I can do it though lol
I'm with b. no way are they 2000w. that's set your plug on fire wattage.
sorry I just got home there 900 watts
lol yeah I love the space its great
you have to look at the actually draw watts. they will list it as 2000 and the actual draw is 200 if it says 1000 than the actual draw is usually 100. I have two lights identical to that. they lost as 2000 watt lights but the actually draw is just under 200 per light. its just a marketing scam.
but those will work great in the size of space you have they may have trouble with how long the closet is you may find yourself having them too high to reach all parts
so that's how big the closet is and I can definitely see the huge difference in the new setup shes loving them
I love dyi "tents" i built mine with boards from work, pvc pipes duct tape, and zip ties π€£
lmfao hell yeah there the best I have my closet wrapped in emergency blankets then I have black out curtains around the outside of the door so it covers the door so no light gets in I have a big ousculating fan in the front front of the room pointed at the door so its not blowing on my plant directly and one pointed at my soil of my plant
shes definitely beautiful shes getting triclones every where and she is super frosty
Nice man! Just wait, it gets even better! Looking good though!
hell yeah shit I cant wait lol
wow she is gorgeous! it looks phenomenal!
thank u so much really appreciate it
very welcome! lol im excited for you to smoke her. that is one of the most amazing looking buds ive ever seen! the colors are mesmerizing
hell really appreciate that alot of hard work and alot of time and love with her lol
BlimBurn.com thank me later πͺπ½
I've got seeds from Mr seedsman, herbies, and seed supreme... they all seem decent
Samuri Squirrel Seeds. Follow my grow to see the "legit-ness"
Cheap site is greenpoint.com but only buy ones that have reviews if you don't want any problems
Seedsman or North Atlantic. Stay away from the white label seed banks like ILGM
π
Thank u
U got it , white label seeds are companies that put any strain name on packs of seeds & sell it so it not really what u paying for , stick with the reputable banks
Hell yeah thanks
Good thank is that north Atlantic seed company is ligetly a hour from my house lol
God damn thatβs purple, might have to grab one, for obvious reasons lol
Hell yeah she is hypnotic beautiful lol
I have seen various phenos of her on reddit. Im sitting on a pack of em but I plan on doing em outside, weather permitting.
I got a autoflower from them and a photoperiod im about to start them today lol there good there here from maine another place here that's through them is dirty bird seed company
I had lost all hope for seedbanks until I found NASC
Hell yeah so I started germination on the 19th so 3 days ago and the tails on the seeds was lo g as hell u can definitely tell that they are going to be good seeds
does my plant look like its pre flowering
I don't think so, I don't see any pistils but I'm only on my 2nd grow. I had this worry but you will see some male or female organs show up on the lower branches before the flowers actually start. so check the lower sprouts like where the branches break off from the main stem for signs of gender
its a female for sure thanks for the info I appreciate it this is my first i got cal mag and bonnie fertilizer from cronk nutrition coming in the mail soon can't wait so I can bulk her up she's doing good so far
here it looks like a healthy plant but it doesnβt look like you can tell for certain about female or male. i donβt see the pistils you said you are seeing maybe try taking a picture of what you are talking about. really you shouldnβt have pistils unless you flipped to 12/12. if you did that then good you may be seeing pistils, if you didnβt then you might just be seeing new growth.
yeah ill take pics of it close up and show i what im talking about thank u for the help
