Some quick pic progress updates. Ive culled all my males today sad but they needed to go. I now have 9 left 3 are still not really showing. There are growths but they dont look like balls so fingers crossed. 5 males out of 14 so far aint too bad. I thought of putting up lots of male pics as reference. Cheers everyone happy growing.

Hope the other 3 are girls for you gbg.  Good examples of boy pics thanks for sharing.

 

The remainder are looking lovely - I see they've nearly outgrown the basketball ring

Thanks ange. Yeah they have! This last month has been crazy with growth. I used the old soil with the roots as a layer of mulch per se with the rest of them. I suppose the roots would be great food for the plants as they decompose. That big male had a real nice root system the soil is like alfafa .

Hey guys just a quick question please. On my plants i have these small moth type looking bugs that hang around on the stem when you flick them away they fly back or just go behind the stem. I noticed about 20 of them all over the big girl I give the plants a good shake almost daily which helps a bit plus ive applied ecooil. What are they? How do i treat this and if i need a different spray is it too late to do at least one more application of eco oil and whatever else is needed? Thanks.

Hi mate, i cant remember there name , there pritty harmless go to a garden shop an by them yellow sticky sheets and hang one off each plant and hang a few around, there bug catchers or something like that its been a few years and my memery is stuffdd .

, owe there white arnt they , i useto just hose the plants and give them the shits it did nt work to well but all i found they did was put little white lines under the leaves think they useto suck the juice out of the leaves,

 

Sorry i couldnt help more but everyone useto catch them on them sticky pads, one of the others should know.good luck .

Your plants are looking nice and healthy GBG, bad luck about them others .

Whitefly is a possiblility, but without a pic it's a wild guess only.  Whatever they are, chances are if they are hanging about on your plants, they are feeding off them in some way as well, so probably worth attacking the little bastards.

Thanks for the replies. Ill try post pics of one in the next couple of days i sprayed more eco on them yesterday and coupled with a regular shake down every other day seems to work well. I think that will be the last spray this season. On a side note everythings going fine so far the rest are showing sex and are female bar 1 which i destroyed yesterday. Basically got a 50/50 ratio this year of male to female. Cant complain. I still think i will acheive my goal of having enough to last me until next season. Happy growing all. Ill put some fresh pics up next week.

Quick update for ya'll. Things coming along nicely now. Males culled except for 1 which is far far away getting jiggy with a female. This is whats left, flowers well and truly on their way! One plant in particular is far more advanced than the rest not sure why though. Also in one of the pics a couple of the girls have purple fan leaf stems. I read that this could be part of its genetic traits or a deficiency or cold nights im not sure theres too much bs on the net... Anyone shed some light? The leaves and plant look otherwise healthy. Bugs under control. Those moth looking things dont really appear to do much to the plants plus my last eco oil on them i drenched top to bottom. Be the last one they get. Happy growing everyone!

So today i was doing a prune and i chopped this little sucker off the bottom of one of my girls. It was growing directly off the bottom of the main stem and thought this isnt gonna do much chop it off but decided to pop it in another container and see if it takes. My ghetto clone attempt. Hasnt died yet just drooped.

I did some really ghetto cloning with my reveg Walter. Thinned and opened it up abit a just jammed the cutting into one of my bigger pots and they are going still out door with no love at all. Very resilient plants
