Regs were the only type I'd run before I gave up growing mate and it's only since starting back up again I've run fems...I had the Bubba Kush CBD throw a few nanas last year on one plant but other than that I've not had any shemales (fingers crossed) I do reckon regs are better overall, they are stronger plants in general and give a better bloom from what I'm observing, although mate from this current run I'm suprised at the bloom for feminised plants, they are there with every reg I've run on the flowers front and it could just be the cross on the Candy Cream is very sensitive, gutted for you though like I said, it's hard going when you've lost the mojo for a grow, will be done in a few weeks anyhow mate, get some green in the jars

My very first grow was Green Crack  (feminised) from Sickmeds and I grew two and one was a friggin male, not even a hermie! However it didn't matter in the end cos the one female filled the whole tent, it was massive.

 

But since then I have done many femmed seeds and the only slight problem I had was with a Tangie that threw out one or two nanas and seeded some Sunshine Daydream.

 

I know it's very annoying though, good job you have other strains.  

@ananda

Sorry dude i was replying to you and the ex mrs hippy turned up ffs,shes gone sharpish cos i really aint in the mood to put up with her fkn moaning..me me me me all the time Aaaaargh..

 

The reason im so wound up is cos its my very 1st fem grow and as far as im concerned now my last..i struggled for years with the fem seed thing versus regs and after all the great fem seed diaries on here i took the plunge and its happened..like i said to botanics i have never had a hermy before from my reg seeds,infact this is the 1st time i can recall from many years of growing..ive no doubt the plants that finish will be great tasting,good yield etc but i cant grow with the constant fear of it happening again so i will buy some regs,hope for a visit from the clone fairy and go back to my old stuck in time self..

 

If the plant is a little sensitive and its known to be like this then fair enough i would have been prepared..things like trainwreck for ex are commonly known to throw a few late nanas..

 

take care buddy

 

Peace

@Happy Hippy, I know what you mean, the stress of it all can ruin the experience of growing, turning something enjoyable into a nightmare.

Sorry I haven't been along for the ride @Happy Hippy

 

But its been a pleasure catching up the past 20mins! 

 

Always admired how you ain't afraid to cram the numbers in the spaces you do but it definitely works, n u know what they says.. If it ain't broke n all that jazz...

 

One question though mucka... Are you sure those are 3litre pots?

 

Not saying you might/should a/wanna go to spec savers or owt....

Only I'm sure I got identical pots here somewhere.. And I'm sure they're 1.75 max.

Maybe less than that, I'll check in a minute...

 

Not a criticism that mind. If anything I'm pretty sure yr selling yrself short

 

Anyways now I'm here (finally)

 

Goodluck for the weigh-in!

@Dodgee

 

Wotcha dude,yeah man my daughter ordered em on the net defo 3.5s cos i got 1.5s for my littluns and i did the previous Smile f2s in 6.5s..i dont think im far of a Oz per plant average,maybe one or 2 less and others more but i will be well happy with that although im still gutted about the Candy Cream cos i reckon there was easy an Oz on each...its still in the freezer in a carrier bag tbh i cant find my old bubblebags doh...its all hanging to dry now m8,did it yesterday and everything had a quick trim before a good close trim when its dry..all the pics are on my phone and im waiting for my daughter to come over and go over how to put it all on yet again lol,im almost there so another couple of resizing lessons etc and i will finally be really self sufficient..

Nice one HH mate, they fattened up in the last stage eh bud fair play, chunky girls those and for such small pots too, top stuff

[Happy Hippy]

@botanics

 

Hey buddy thanks man their ok for small pots and low ceiling height but until i smoke it as always im disappointed a little and fed up with having to change how i grow..i thought your were in 3.5s as well ? and yours look much chunkier to me..

 

Already thinking about whats next tbh and i did keep 4 cuts from the whole grow of the plants im happy with growth wise,everything depends on how they smoke for me whether i will keep em or not.

 

oh well i will keep on keeping on, and i only have a few days until i can have a smoke of my own so i should feel better i hope when im stoned to fk

 

Really fkin struggling dude this last week and been taking stock of my life and what i want from it..im none the wiser  just wallowing in my own company...i really need some female co i think,at least in Africa im never alone..

 

Thanks for looking in dude and the kind words,i appreciate it a lot.

 

Take care m8

 

Peace

No mate I put mine in my 7.5's for the finals, I can only fit four of those in and I was finding my 5's a little cramped with six in there so decided to lessen the numbers and go for bigger plants, the only thing then though is keeping the height down and I struggled with the Seedsman run as you know...it's hard going mate and you've had to deal with it too and done so with no bother  

 

Sounds like you're in a bit of a lull too mate, lots going on in the world and the recent political business no doubt took it's toll bud and considering the results, well isn't very cheerful, eye on the prize mate and aye Africa's the way, should find yourself a good woman there bud for sure

[Happy Hippy]

@botanics

 

Hey dude i missed you was in 7.5s,thats probably why yours look twice the size of mine lol..yeah man life here is soooo hard for me and everyone lately has been so picky and grumpy with each other on here, i defo think its the political climate and the injustice of everything thats gone on.

 

Thanks man i have much to be greatful for i know

 

Peace
