DAY 30: Lucky Charms has been slow to recover from the topping on 6 days ago. Most likely botched that one. I topped the White Widow yesterday and it seems and hasn't skipped a beat. The Lucky Charm's roots have penetrated the Pete Pot, which it whats apparently supposed to happen, though this is the first time its actually worked. Lucky Charms is obviously longing for a bigger pot, but I still don't know if it's a male or not, so I'm hesitant to invest the pot/soil, just yet. White Widow having been a feminized seed, I'd put it in a bigger pot the moment it asked for it, but she's a slow grower.
DAY 32: So the Lucky Charms' new growth was coming up deformed from my poorly-executed topping last week. Producing leaves that reminded me of Scary Movie 2. "Take mah strong hand!" So I topped it again (this time correctly), to reset it into growing the way nature intended. Still waiting for the plant to prove me wrong about it being a male. White Widow is my slow and steady tortoise, but she's showing tight inter-nodal spacing, so I'm expecting a good bushy plant structure out of her.
DAY 34: The Lucky Charms was starting to get root-bound with roots that permeated through the Pete Pots binding too, so I potted it up. I still believe the Lucky Charms to be a male, so sexing pots seemed like a good idea. Even though the White Widow is a feminized seed, I figured I'd repot her while I was at it. I guess I didn't get a perfect topping on the White Widow as one of the four shoots is tiny and deformed. Lucky Charm's deformed growth was largely removed earlier this week, with just two deformed leaves remaining to support the new top split. It's kind of fascinating to watch this thing pump leaves out by any means necessary. While it is a product of a mistake, at this point in my growing career, every result is novelty, good or bad. Just happy to be here.
@EeyoreTheHomie,. I'm glad to see it man!! Very exciting, glad you took the clone. I think that's probably you're best route.
Good to know that it can take most of what's thrown at it now lol. The clone should have a great life...am very excited to see how it turns out for you!!
@avid_grow, You were right! It's a girl. I can't believe it, I've been hating on this plant for months haha.
Rather than reverting to veg, I'm trying to clone it, and give that plant a better life lol. Either way, we shall see how this bud comes out!
@EeyoreTheHomie, from the pics and video I think you might have a girl...but I'd give it another couple of days to see for sure. I'd say about half way into your second week you should know for certain and can take the appropriate measures.
It's possible you've got a herm but another couple of days and you should know for certain.
