My restart from seed

[Happyweedz]

Thanx for the info Hemi...and opinions/advice are always welcome! It looks like you have a jam-up system! Very nice!

My Cloner had been cleaned with bleach and stored on it's box for about 3 months...so after a good rinsing with hot water I felt it was bacteria free. I have always made the final cut at 45, never heard to cut em straight for hydro...but I will be trying that next round. These were cut at 45.. In the past most clips have taken the better part of 2 weeks to sprout roots, but I usually have 90-100% of them sprout for me. I don't spray the leaves often, but what you are saying makes sense, so I will go without it and see.

I run an Aeroflo and had read that RW has been know to clog sprayers, filters and stuff...so I have been using it just for seed starts in DWC tubs. And on this start I modified the RW cube so it could be removed after the sprout got established. Dunno if it will work every time, but it worked this time... Anything that is going into the Aeroflo is just the clone & hydroton in the net-pot.

Thanx again!

Well, it is still early...but the first indications I am seeing look like little boy-bumps at some of the nodes on 3 of the 6 plants... I will try to get a pic later.

I won't do anything until I am sure!! But it looks like I'm only batting 50% from the start.

ummm...be careful about taking boy-bump photos...oh you meant the plants. Never mind.

[Happyweedz]

Hahahahahahahahaha.... Very definitely the plants!!!

But I did spend part of my day chasing some girl bumps...(Of legal age!!)..so I didn't get much time in my garden...

And I'm not posting pics of that...

[Happyweedz]

Well....this morning the first 3 plants that had started to show are still looking like males.... More so than yesterday...but I will still give them another day or two just to be 100% sure.

I usually figure on 50/50 from seed...and I am already there. As long as I have a couple of healthy females to choose from for Mother stock I will be happy.

Pictures...of the plant(s)?

[Happyweedz]

I got home after lights out, so I will get pics in the AM. But they are definitely showing boy parts!!

While I am having my coffee & Bailey's in the morning I will chop the male seedlings, then pull their clippings. Wish I was chopping the big girls but I'm still waiting for the trics to change.

It shouldn't be too much longer before I know about the other seedlings. Time always tells.....

Today I managed to get pics... The 3 showing are def male!!! The other 3 aren't showing real definite signs..so they will keep going on....hoping for some female bumps...

It figures though...I've had trouble reading females outside the grow room as well

The 3 males and the clips taken from those plants will get gone tonight.....

Here are the picks of them boy parts....

[GrowTutor]

Off with their heads!

[Happyweedz]

DONE! Of with their heads, sacs, and everything in between...they gone!

Along with all the clips that came from them..it's all in the trash.

My cloner is starting to look kinda empty!

But I haven't lost hope...all I really need it one or two good ones.... And if that doesn't happen, I have more seed!
