Indoor My First Entry Into The Dragon Weyrs

Update Day 29: ETs 1 and 2 are looking great. However, after the pics this morning, #1 was shifted to an outdoor plant. He will mature and wait for a mate outside to complete his destiny as a pollen donor. #2 looks great and will stay in side to be grown for potential. Yesterday was a watering day and the plants were fed a little higher dose of nutrients since the first feeding was taken so well. Feeding 2 was mixed as follows, 1.8L bubbled rain water, 2ml BioThrive Grow, 2.5ml CaMg+, 2.5ml Bio Root, 2ml Diamond Black and 3ml Bio Weed. I will push this plant with nutes to see what comes of it. ETs 3 and 4 are sitting in the group photo, but do not have individual pics yet. I have dropped another ET Dragon seed as well as a Dinafem OG Kush Auto, just to keep it lively around here.
On to the Pics.
How about that red foliage on that Hibiscus!!!! The last 3 pics are #2 and the rest above that are #1(the male)
Here is the group photo..

Update DAY 36.
The little dragons are doing great and growing daily, although I forgot to measure. This morning ET #2 received a feeding at full strength. 1.8L bubbled rain water, with 5ml BioThrive Grow, 3ml CaMg+, 3ml Bio Weed and 5ml Bio Root. She received 500ml of this. So far the plants that have received nutes have taken off and are doing extremely well, and I will slowly continue to up the dosage until I see some detrimental side effect at which time we just step down a hair and run like hell.
ET Dragon #1 is residing outdoors now and truly seems to love it. I have not watered him since he went out because we have had so much rain. But he is enjoying the warm days and breezes. and has gotten ballsy as hell.
I am also including pics of ET Dragons #3 and #4 which are slowly coming into their own. #3 should show sex in the next week and #4 the week after that. I also have a #5 popped above ground which will move into the tent next week. One of these 3 needs to get ready for breeding with #1, so we can continue this romp. But that is yet to come, and for now, it's pic day.
So, the pics are as follows 1 thru 4 are ET#1
5,6 and 7 are ET#2
8,9 and 10 are ET#3
It would not let me add more than 10 pics so #4 will be next.

Good Luck Taming your Dragons tag...
This male made me Smile..blast from the past..he is the Fast male that I used all through JEM to get the Autoflowering trait in.
The narrow head and small tapered leaves at the top..pointing up to the sky..blue-printed in my head...

BTW..Love hibiscus...
Thank you for the background on this male. I thought he looked and acted like a great specimen. He really likes it outdoors here and I can't wait to get him bred to one of the females. I think I will just collect pollen and keep these genetics around a bit for playing with. God knows, that with the way he is developing he should put out copious quantities of pollen.
And yes, I love my Hibiscus as well, If the white flies aren't bad then it's a good summer with lots of flowers. But, typically they are really bad here and I do battle all summer long, just to keep my plants going. A hazard of the location. I also have about 30 different lillies and daylillies around the yard as well and most of those are some stage of flowering now, so it's been a good spring really. Keep an eye out, I may start a thread over in the "Everything Else" forum with pics of the flowers I have.

Just a quick update on ET #3. I did a little peaking under the skirt and I believe I have another female on my hands. No hairy little pistols yet just Calyx. So in another day or 2 I should get confirmation. Lets hope I am right. I have also been giving the whole seed run idea a think through and have come to the following conclusions. 1. Harvesting of pollen and keeping it for manual application is more efficient. 2. Pollinate 1 branch on every female and maintain genetic diversity within the strain. What I don't know and Goauto6 feel free to chime in here, does seeding just 1 branch seem to have a detrimental effect on the bud and resin production of the rest of the plant. If not then I will do this once I have pollen to play with. Just keep all my females in the tent and pull em for selective placement of pollen, then back in after bagging the pollinated branch to avoid contamination.
Sounds like a plan, well a new plan at least.

Time for another update on the dragon weyr I am tending. #3 does appear to be female. The male has already begun dropping pollen so I wanted to collect pollen and get some seeds percolating around here. I may just take #2 (the most mature of the dragon fems) and dust a couple of buds to see if I can get seeds going. When #3 begins budding I will dust a few of those also and depending on how much pollen I manage to successfully harvest(it's not gone well so far today) I may hit another plant. But that should result in plenty of seeds for future testing and education. No one likes a pig.
I wonder though, does the presence of the seeded buds cause enough detrimental effect to the overall volume and quality of the rest of the plant to be a sticking point in the decision process. I have seen other guys talk about pollinating 1 arm of a female and therefore a plant does double duty, Seeds for the future, buds for the now. Does the plant care or does each arm just grow what it got? Questions.
