Went through this morning and I now have found I have 2 males and the rest are looking like females.2 out of 9 is definitely my best number yet and I’m stoked.Now comes the anxiety of picking the right male.I have a super fast growing huge Plant on my right that really stinks on the left and a just as vigorous growth a bit shorter male that also stinks almost as bad as the big guy just a little bit more bushy.Which one do I pick for pollen lol?

Maybe let em both dry down a little more than you would normally and see which one handles the stress a little better?

Definitely the bigger one it’s like a viagra commercial while the others droop its always the happiest out of all of them.It’s a shade lighter than all of them too there’s a female that looks just like him in there the rest have more rough ridges

Your getting all the genetics there. The short plants are badass and so are the big ones. I would keep both if I had the space. Looking good

Well today was a gootcher but a good one I suppose.Bob and Dave and not bob and Dave but Barb and Danielle now for the balls I thought were balls were just these really tiny side stems coming out in double brackets on the stem out of the 14 planted couple damped off and being left with 9 I have all females.My eyes aren’t as good as they used to be thank god I’m nosey and go over every inch of all these.Would have been pissed if I tossed that one.Going to take cuttings and wait till my next skunk hunt to get another male.I still have a 12 pack of disgust-O I’m going to pop when the smoke clears.Time pick through these lady’s and make some selections to fine tune.

Made my picks as too what made my final 7 gave 2 away for room they are going to consume my tent with the Jaqylyns and the Texada yes I kept the dwarf I cant bear to part with her so I kept her till she catches up of sorts.All of them got some new magic shoes and fed 3 McDonald’s cups of bubbled water instant compost tea and 1 half dose 1 tbs of dr earth pure gold and a pinch of monthly probiotics.And yes still no pm and my dirt gnats are now extinct.and now we do everything in our power to make sure these things eat and grow.I think the Motörhead and Maiden warm ups perk them to eat and get fat.30 days holy shit this escalated fast.I had someone say I never seen leaves that wide my whole life.Priceless

Checked out this morning and my whole tent is up and jamming.I’ve never seen the whole tent on the same sheet like today.They go nuts every time I feed them those probiotics.That shit is magic if you ain’t using them you need to be.these things are damn near jumping with energy after they get that damn tea

The chart I was showed told me a 4 by 4 tent with my heat should be 30 percent humidity how the fuck do you do that and not have the giant droop thing happen?If mine ain’t 60 percent humidity or higher for lights on I get a droop.My tent looks and grows awesome with higher humidity.I tone it down at nighttime with the cool temps that’s it.No PM problems with the new IPM protocol in play

I wonder what that chart is, would you happen to have it around ?
Oh and plants look stunningly healthy, you have a gold thumb sir

I am a novice at best sir.I watch everyone on here and I see what they do and what works so everyone on here helped me in a little way on everything I’ve been doing.Along with my mistakes I learn from and all the stuff that attacked me this year it made me a better grower for it.I don’t think you ever get better without suffering some and I will never come off or be a know it all on this site or say or do anything that I wouldn’t do myself if I have already been through and survived or if someone on here who I know has sage advice will I ever endorse it.I’ll see where that chart is

Either I read it wrong or they mean that for flower I think.It would seem to me veg would want to be higher lower for flowering so you don’t get bud rot and pm.One of the reasons I turn down my humidity at night time.Having had a problem yet

Doesn’t look all that helpful. That’s a huge range to call “optimal” for most of the chart, until you get to 85+ F. Here’s the one I use, I think it’s a bit more precise:

I think a vpd chart is for the whole grow - with the exception being very dense and/or massive buds. In that case stick to ~50% rh the last 3 weeks or the final bulking.
Also if you look at a dew point graph you’d be able to set your day/night temps so your humidity doesn’t spike as much at night.
This too.

77 degrees 63 to 67percent humidity seems to be my tents sweetspot.the plants are all perky at the same time with those numbers.Your chart tells me that’s a good dial in

How do you like the air pots, are they better than the fabric containers? I noticed several growers, including yourself, using them.

Last time I used one the plant that was in it turned out to be a male but the growth was like brick shithouse solid like a female.The rootball was huge on it and it grew amazing sucks it wouldn’t clone but I can almost never get males to clone when they flower that late.I’m liking them so far and they airprune a lot better than the fabric’s.They keep more even root temp too I’m noticing and with the Promix HP they are holding water well and the skunks love them.

The Two biggest ones with the Dwarf have no signs of balls yet keep our fingers crossed 4 males popped out today which made way more sense to me though and I was instantly relieved I caught a couple males takes two weeks to catch them all.Would have been a lot more cooler if it was just like 2 instead of 4 but beggars can’t be choosers and I kept the stinkiest fattest slob out of the bunch that is almost a twin to the big one I call Fat mama there is one more no balls besides the dwarf that is a lot more wider and squat than Fat Mama.I get to breed the monster male to the two different phenos.Let’s hope no more balls and we’re in the drivers seat now.Shit just got a lot more interesting.Please Dear Odin grant us a monster skunk hunt.

I don’t put much faith in the chart. My RH is very low and I get a little tacoing but no big deal.
