Well todays been a terrible day so far, and to add to it my only female plant thats in flowering grew into the cfl light that was above it and burnt the whole top of the plant. What should I do? Is it completely fucked now? I'm so pissed off right now....
dont' worry it will prob need a week to recover. You'll have to cut off what is burnt though try and salvage what you can though. If half a bud is burnt just cut off half same with leaves.
That sucks I hate when that happens, happened to me a few times over night but luckily only got the tips at best. How badly did it burn? Got a pic?
it was fairly bad, when I got home the cfl light was resting on the top of the plant, pulled it off and the whole top part where it was starting to slightly bud was fried and some leaves around it...im totally bumbed. I chopped off all the toasted parts so hopefully she recovers. Sadly I think its the only female out of the 4 that I have. FML....pictures are shitty but you can see where I chopped the bitch off...sorry for the language im just really heated right now
Yeah I totally understand you being upset. I was too when this has happened, it happens though. Well what you chopped off looks ok now I think it will make a full recovery, best of luck keep us posted and relax nothing that can be done now but I'll think you'll be fine.
Right on, I hope so. I'll keep you guys posted. Also I think two of my plants are males for sure. Only a week into flowering and by the pistals theres groupings of shell shaped green. Taking it that there males I moved them out of the room even though its this early on. Is that a bad Idea or should I just leave them there and wait it out untill its super clear that there males. Because one of them that has the ball groupings looks like its budding. How far along into flowering will I really know what the sex is? Is it premature for me to yank them out?
Yeah sounds like a male if they are pod shaped clusters. I don't think it would hurt to leave them in there a bit longer until your totally sure and can def identify them as males. Usually anywhere from 1-3 weeks after putting them into 12/12. Might as well leave them in there I think until your totally sure. Goodluck bud!
thanks, ya sadly..I think two of them are males for sure. Inbetween the pistals theres three football shaped pod cluster. Plants are def flowering but they have those damn ball clusters. Pretty sad..the one I burnt is a female for sure, and the other one still hasnt shown its sex yet. Reeeally hope its a female..
