Two Gorillas & Five Ladies: Grow #5

Been really busy at work, so it’s time for an update @Nicky…and the realization of a critical mistake.

Tent 1 has two Blue Dream and two Sour Diesel….and one of them is ten days younger due to a genetic failure.

Three of them are in flower as of 8/17…

Been giving them 3/4 nutes every third feeding and just Fish!t, Tribus, and Recharge in between to help build the soil. I also add Power Si Original (during veg) and the Power Si Bloom (now during flower) to the nutrient feeding. So far, so good. The HLG 260XL is at 225 watts.

In tent 2 I have two Banana Kush ladies that I planted June 19th. They’re growing like crazy as I’m doing the same nutrient schedule as in tent 1. Less is more. But during this time, as autos, they should already be in flower. I’ve done very little trimming as not to shock them….I’m buying into the shock talk this grow…and still no pre-flower. Nothin’. So I decided to try the flip them to 12/12 as I’ve read guys trying this with autos that grow too tall and don’t go to flower. So I do that four days ago hoping this might trigger them to start to flower.

The other day I was looking at more seeds here at ILGM and wanted to see my prior purchases since I’ve bought so many seeds I forget what I have…lol. When I looked at the Banana Kush purchase, I bought photos instead of autos. I went to my seed storage to confirm and yup…I bought ‘feminized’ regular seeds. WTF!!! Now I’m stuck, I treated them as autos…opening the tent whenever time of the day it was…day/night…dark/light on…everything you shouldn’t do with a photo. Now they haven’t gone to flower yet, so I’m wondering if I am safe to grow these out or should I cull them and start over for fear of hermie. @Hellraiser …HELP!

They look good though….lol
