Thanks bro,need all i can get!
I'm siked too bro! I think I may drop some in a few days instead of next week! I'm wanting to get started since you are up and running now. So we can compare notes. That idea sounds great to get cold air into your closet/getting the heat out. That should make a difference! Just so you know my temps rarely get below 80-85 degrees. Sometimes hit 90 degrees on the nose. I get really high female ratios. Since I've switched to Promix BX I get way lower hermi rates if any hermi's at all. Other than what's in the genetics that I can't control. Did you say you are using 
OF? That may be your problem... Too hot for Autos. I used it for a few months when I first started growing. Took a bit to get dialed in with it as it's easy to burn the crap out of your seedlings without really over watering... Maybe try Happy Frog if you have access or mix the OF with some perilite... Higher temps can cause hermi's for sure. But as long as you have good air circulation you're good to go. The MJ plant is hardier than we realize...
Now we must lay rest to the Hermis...
and bring in nothing but FEMALE KARMA!!

Get them beans in WVR,the more the merrier! I love my ffof,grew my pineapples and cobra in them-had to tweek the ph a little but then it was all good. My temps usually stay around 80f in the cab during winter months but i've never ran it thru the summer so i'm havin some troubles.Thinkin of taking one of those flared attachments for the vaccuum cleaner and attaching it to the ac blower vent and runnin that hose to my cab intake-should cool it just ebuf to get me down to the mid 80f's. I don't know,maybe i was wrong-i thought i read something in cervanted mj book about high temps causing more males-think he got it from dutch passion? That hermie i killed with extreme prejudice was actually my first one ever-and hopefully the last lol! I think Mr. NS popped a few MF in already to-hopefully between us we can get some decent results.
Yes I have heard (and I do believe) that high heat causes more males... It just doesn't happen much to me with my temps being higher than recommended. But, I think your idea should work just fine! I love OF and HF as well. I was forced to switch to Promix because I couldn't afford to drive 3 hrs round trip to get the soil I needed. I buy a Bail of Promix BX and have dirt to last me a month. And I only have to drive 15 mins to get it now. If you know how to tweak your grow with OF (and obviously you definitely do!) you can get some big yield and awesome plants. I've done it! I think what helps me is my real good air flow. I have an a/c vent right next to my closet and I just redirect the cold air in with the big fan. Cool air in/hot air out! 
I stopped by tonight to tell you I dropped 2 Medusa's Fruit in the dirt tonight! Will be dropping 3 or 4 more here in the next 7 days. Can't thank you enough man for giving me your blessing to run them!! I feel like I'm on a team! LOL I'm with You and Mr. NS in the "Medusa's Fruit Team" and Sniper420, DubV, and I are the "Appalachian Royalty Team". MJ IS SO MUCH FUN!!!
:smokebuds: Are you just as excited about this as I am? LOL There's something to that name man! Gets into your head and flows off the tongue! Can't wait to taste it on the tongue!

:dance:Hiya WVR! Glad to hear ya got a few Medusas Fruit under dirt! I'm lucky enuf to only have to drive 10 minutes to get to a place that carries ffof. I like it,you just have to check the soil ph bag to bag as it sometimes varies. I got 5 bags on hand right now and i must have hit it just right on this pallet load as its runnin 6.2 right outta the bag on all 5 bags! Glad you like the name,tried to think of something that icorporated both the parents somehow in the name. Cobra made me think snakes and snakes made me think Medusa and pineapple is fruit lol! Now for a catchy description. One hit and the Medusas Fruit will turn you to stone-d! Guess we'll have to wait and see about that once we get some finished product. Your most welcome and I'M happy to have you and Mr. NS aboard for the testruns-hopin we have a winner here! Checked the 2nd batch today at 18 days old and found the first female of the new batch-all that female karma must be helpin!

Female #2 showed her goodies today,this 2nd batch is off to a great start so far,7 more still to sex. Transplanted her from her partycup to a 3 liter pot and ffof same as her sisters. The other 3 seem to have taken to their new homes nicely and have started some vertical and horizontal growth and are lookin pretty.The oldest 2 are now 27 days old followed by their younger sisters at 19 days old.Gave them all a bumped up dose of growbig last nite at 1/2 tsp to 2 liters divided amongst them. Water ph in at 6.5 runoff at 6.4.

Update time for the Medusas Fruit girls! Looks like 9 young ladies from 24-32 days old-1 still holding back sex,odds are she'll go female. The first batch of 7 i got 2 females and 4 males a nd a heshe. 2nd batch of 9 i had 7 females,1 male,and 1 holdout-go figure. Girls are feeding on 1/4 tsp. growbig to 1 liter of ph 6.5 water every 3 days now-all are in 2-3 liter cola bottles cut to 9" tall filled with ffof-3 days in between watering is about as dry as i dare let them go-4 days in between and they wilt. Looking at this 1 st batch of new plants i can see the pineapple mom in some and the cobra dad in a bunch. Soaking a new batch of 20 Medusas Fruit seeds tonite.Plan to put them all in 6" pots and grow them out on the top tier of the growcloset-this one will be about 35-40 days behind the first batch and will be my next cross to make F2 seeds from the very best canidates.So far so good,everything is runnin top notch-the ffof soil is playin nice,no bugs in the cab lol!
AWESOME BRO!!! I think you saw my update but I have 1 Medusa's Fruit above ground and 2 more going in tomorrow!! More will be going in as I get space!! Great to hear you got all them ladies!! 
Great to see you're trucking along Bud! Sending TONS of Green Karma and Germ Karma for the new babies!! 
Everything is looking top notch!!
