  1. No I had the water in two buckets to let the chlorine evaporate but I guess I should have washed them because I went to change my water and it had stagnated so now I have washed the buckets filled with fresh tap water and tomorrow will be 3 days so should be good to flower. As far as preflower's yes progress am I 100% no its strange I really think all of them are females because the ones I thought were male are showing signs of females like the calyx is pointed not a ball like a male and the other two don't have a calyx all they have is a single hair right where the calyx is supposed to be I've been watching very closely hopeful for all females

  3. I do hope you have a grow journal for that would love to follow and to me hydroponics is the way to go I have so much more control than I ever did outdoors this is actually my very first indoor grow and what you see is the product of literary 100's of hrs of research via internet I have for the most part been able to identify most of my problems early on and 99% of them go back to pH I check my pH at least 3 times a day and it has stopped many problems early

    I remember being in high school all I would do is visit overgrow dot com and research nothing but how to grow and make stealth cabinets. I tried growing at my father's house but he killed them every time. I don't blame him, but I yearned to produce my own frosty bud. Back in those days I had no choice but to get ripped off by some fucker 20 dollars for barely a g. Probably was .5. 10 years later and after the military here I finally am doing what I always wanted to do, in my own fucking house. Feels great man, I'm tired of giving these fucks my money and gonna smoke my own shit which is gonna be oh so much better. Thousands of hours of online reading and wishing I was one of the guys on the forums with their own jars of homegrown dank, here I am about to experience it for myself. Came a long way man. Let's do this shit proper.
     
  5. I could not have said it better my friend I didn't go military tho but I've been in backwoods Alabama my entire life smoking fucking Mexican brick weed and dreaming about enjoying something I know is legit and not just some good someone grew in their back yard and called it purp or whatever. I'm growing bag seed now just to see how well I do next is the legendary white widow can't wait.
     
  6. Helion I think a passion for marijuana like mine and yours is a rare find I so wish it were legal here so I didn't have to worry about prison (a risk I'm completely willing to take) but it gets another shot next year our governor is behind medical legalization I'll get a card I'm A.D.H.D. and have been ever since I was born diagnosed at age 5 and have been on every single medication their is and marijuana works better than anything anyway good luck I hope you see your dream realized
