Thats good SM, having 2 locations, i remember when I wanted to do a guerilla grow, someone told me dont put your eggs in the one basket, lol my brothers shut down the idea when i bought loads of ticks home haha. I do hope the poor little girl makes it. I hope you can have a clear window to put her, i love how they turn to the light
Yeah, I'm trying to spread them out a bit. Can't be too far, or it's a real pain to tend to them. But not too close, either.
Another reason for not too close isn't just security, it's in case one/some is/are male, and pollinate the ladies.
At this point, not sure if I would prefer these last Strain 1 plants to all be female,
or if I'd prefer one (only one healthy one!) to be male, so I can make some seed.
Weather has been good. Sunny with a bit of cloud, temps in the 32C-35C zone.
Nothing they can't handle at all, fairly normal temps for here, if they have enough water.
No rain for a few days now, but forecasted for tomorrow and the day after.
Should be enough, but hope it's maybe 10-20 mm, give them a good soak.
Meanwhile:
LBH Selection -- Round 4 -- Day 18
This happy seedling it hitting her vegetative mode after re-potting and topping.
She's yet to go outside, have to find a good opportunity to do so.
And so has been loving life under the lights (150W 3500K COB (3 X 50W)).
Tucked in there, between some organic tomatoes and DWC lettuces.
I love how her leaflets went from 1-leaflet, to 3-leaflet, and then straight to 7-leaflet, skipping the 5.
Really hope she can pop some 9-pointers, but since I've topped her (I hope!), less likely. Let's see...
Topped after the 4th node, the secondary lateral growth is looking good.
Should probably just remove those little 1st node leaves and tiny laterals though.
Not sure about the laterals from the 2nd node.
They won't be strong, but maybe leave them, as they would be perfect for seeding if the other plant turns male.
The laterals on the 3rd and 4th nodes look like they will be about equal. Perfect!
Okay, technically, that's a FIM, not a top, but it's a pretty brutal FIM.
I was aiming for a FIM, by the way, as I think it works well, if you can get it right.
(Is there such a thing as a deliberate FIM, Fuck I Missed??)
I'm enjoying her (I hope!) inside under the lights where I can baby her.
But, the bigger she gets, the harder to put her safely outside.
So I'm going to have to face facts, and just do it.
Will prob have to wait until Monday, as weekends are high traffic times.
Maybe can get in a little LST work on those top laterals, but I don't think it's essential once outside.
Love and hugs,

The veges look nice M
as does the girls, that's true about the spacing dont want to have to travel too far, yet far enough to give them a buffer with the male that could be in the patch. I got a few ideas about the summer breeding with the nimbins. If you say like Strain1 and would like some seed you could have a male in that plot. The upside of your own seeds is that you dont have to worry about the postage, the downside is seeding bud. I saw a video on youtube, where they just brushed certain flowers (buds) with pollen. The weather sounds like its getting better which is great to hear.
I saw I saw!! .. Let's ask if he'd give us any hints and see if brother LBH caves and coughs up some info here or there -
