Ph test strips are handy to have if your water is questionable. Then you know relatively where you stand mix your chemical retest and adjust if needed.
I’m fortunate mine I don’t need to piss with but a couple times a year spring thaw usually messes with ph till all the snow melts .

Well, the tents getting a bit emptier. 
As far as I’m concerned the smooth volcano butthole for fems is bro science. 
Not really put to the test by me only doing 7 out of 25 that looked silky smooth and near perfect. Ahh well.
Chopping 4 did give me more space for the girls to get stretching into their second week of flower.

plz stay fems 
, and 2 JPS frosted Frankenstein in the back…
Can I reuse the promix that the males were in?
Roots and all?
Or do I have to shake it all loose and separate?
Or chuck it.

I personally do , I just remove the base stem shake it a bit and what I do is use the stems for compost on my outdoor garden.Put the old soil away in a tote and mix it roots and all with some more of the same soil or a “weaker” nutrient wise soil.Definitely reusable it’s dealers choice 
hope this helps Lz

Everything on OG helps Lz

But yes answers perfectly. 
I would hate to have to waste that much.
Is that a good/bad/ ratio for M to F?
Gotta admit, getting rid of 4 kinda depressed me. Just the hole, aww man I took such good care of you 
Guess, “ces’t la vie” when doing regs, and I’m cool with that.
Ps.
Anyone want to trade for some fems, dm me

It’s all about the journey I felt exactly the same so I started isolating the males and storing pollen became the norm 
Hey now at least you can take a few clones root them and really get to budding 
Congrats on your girls

For now they’re kickin it with the other twisted sisters.

I think it was a success, what do you think? The pollen was around 4-5 months old so I was worried it wouldn’t take.

Some Dog Patch from @MissinBissin I pollinated as well because why not?

Your pollen can remain viable for years and years in the freezer, properly stored

I had it sandwiched between a couple of desiccant packs vacuum sealed in the vegetable crisper in the fridge. Maybe it’s time I put it in the freezer for longer term storage.

Yup, fridge for a month or few, and freezer long term. I use the smallest mason jars available, in the freezer with silica gel beads, to store multiple strains without having to seal it every time, the jars work pretty good.

2 mutant leaves in 1 shot. The 12 leaf one is posted above in close detail. The new mutant just above that one is a branch ending. It looks like a kalic in someone’s hair. Leaf is 360 degrees.

I think I am 100% good on the picking of the volcanoes. Except for the 2 in the cups which I didn’t sex, I think the rest are all females. 14 of them.
