Update:

It's approx. 1 week of flowering to this day. They get bigger every day. My babies are growing up!
I started using SensiGrow A+B with SensiBloom A+B with about 1/4 of the recommended usage of my custom feeding schedule. I would rather use less nutes than use too much. This week when I change my water on wed. im gonna try using the BigBud podwer nute. We will see how that turns out when the time comes.
but anyways more pics! yay!

Update:

AAAAAH! I found a male/hermie! NOOOOOOOOOOO! I checked the other plants and the rest looks fine. I'm now down to 11 plants .

When I checked in on the plants this morning I noticed the strongest plant had some pods growing. Check out the pics.





With the advice of oldskoolgrower I got rid of the plant. Thankfully none of the pods have erupted and contaminated the rest of the femmes. I'm a little dissappointed, because it was a purple wreck plant.
Oh well, I got 3 more PW plants....

Hey, bad luck with the hermie, least you caught it though eh.

Anyway, I was hoping you could tell me how often your system is watering your plants and if you have changed it or plan to change it at any time during grow.

Thanks.

yea thankfully I caught it before any damage was done to the rest of my fems.

The system waters the plants twice a day. Once in the morning before the lights come on at around 8am and at 4:20pm before the lights go off.
I do not plan on changing it, it seems the plants are growing strong and healthy with the way it set up atm. I dont wanna tinkle with the programming because everything is already pre programmed to optimum levels for growing my cannabis.

[Stompy1]

Thanks, and for how long does the system stay on each time?

[yourHIGHness]

You mean to water the plants? I believe its 8 minutes.
The entire system is always on though. It never shuts off.

[Stompy1]

Thanks, and good luck with the rest of your grow, I'll keep watching.

Update:

My only White Widow plant turned into a hermie. What the hell... i'm upset my only sativa strain is gone. Had to get rid of it. It was getting nice and big too. The roots were white, thick, and plentiful.
Down to 10 plants. I pray to the pot Gods that the rest of my babies dont go hermie on me!

[Stompy1]

Hey, not cool again, sry to hear that. 10 should still be a decent crop though huh.

Are there any moments in the plant's history when they have been stressed that might have caused the hermies? were they feminized seeds?

No, the seeds were not feminized. I am not sure why the WW turned hermie on me. I cant remember a time where I stressed it (unlike the first hermie discovery). I dont know...

but the rest of the plants are looking good now. 10 plants will suffice for my first grow. Cant really complain...live and learn. Im just glad im coming across these problems now..so I can learn from my mistakes.

I took a couple more pictures of the rest of my 10 plants. 4 purple wrecks and 6 unknown clones.

[yourHIGHness]

ok heres an update. took these pics on 4/20. Newer ones to come soon!

[TheMedicineMan]

Absolutely excellent. That purple wreck is going to be insane. Take good care of those happy little girls.

[BUDSLiNGER]
