The small plants liked the transplant yesterday.

Second the ones I transplanted Monday.

I just leave them alone. I water when they get dry or if one starts dropping. I've used about a tablespoon of fox farm grow big. In a 16oz bottle. It takes me about 4 bottles or half gallon to water them good enough. They are happy. I'll be able to sex them before long.
 
I guess it's winter. Seems like now that people can grow freely they have stopped posting grows.

I know some are smaller. I just planted a few seeds I made last year and I'll cull the small ones and the males. Trying to get them sexed. See how many I'll have after that.
 
How are you determining sex at this early stage?
Plants started inside will start to show sex around 24 days old depending on size. The biggest plants and males show first. Look in the area around the fifth or sixth node and you will start to see the first little growth between the tops. In the area you first notice sex. The male looks like your hand with your fingers clawed and the female will will be the tiny point. Outdoor plants take longer to show sex it seems to me.

see the part of the male looks like a small closed pollen pod It has a lighter tint. I don't have a female to show yet. The female will be in tighter to the stem like the second picture where the red dot is. It will look like the first little tip of the tear poking up. It's darker green and doesn't have any of the what I call claws that look like they will open. Most times you can see the first white hair just starting to grow from the female part.

the female will look like the red art I did. You just have to learn what your looking at. It's not 100% but like last year I only had two small males I pulled late. It happens but I didn't waist half my holes on males most times I get 6 or 7 females from a ten pack for the price of three fem seeds. Happy growing.

Here's a female top of the first calyx showing above the red dot. The first hair is visible right of the green dot. I use a jewelers loop to look for sex early. come fall I may have 2 or 3 males but thats much better than 15 or more.

Well I planted 5 satori. Three purple mandala and 6 super silver haze. Looked this morning and a mouse in my house ate all but one satori seed

. It's cracked I think. Maybe it will grow. All the satori I had.
 
Plants look really good. I been using a tablespoon of fox farm big bloom and grow big in a 16oz bottle of water. Just light feeding about one a week. I saw just a little tip color at first but that's gone as the plants got bigger. They look good. Almost a blue color they are really healthy. I'm waiting a few more days so the daylight hours are longer.

I have one plant with the taco leaf. This one plant wilted one time and recovered after I watered but it seems it never recovered all the way. I'm not saying that's the reason because I don't know. I do see it more in f2 seeds I have than those from mandala. And here's my later mandala plants

It hot pretty cold the last couple nights. Not enough to hurt but I waited. It's just getting time anyway. My plants look good. I hope everyone is doing ok.
 
Did anyone get frost last night? 43 for a high today. This should be the last frost hopefully.
 
I had two doubles in two different pots. Both root balls were growing together so I know a broke a couple roots separating them. Here are the four now in their own pot. This is an hour after separation. Guess I did good because they never wilted at all.
