KingKush grow #2 - 3000w Bruce Banner in soil

@Chefbjy
Glad you could join I was going to post this on a different thread and talk about our situation. Yea that Includes my space heater. January is the potential extreme. I think simply growing more per run and including a light rail will be my next move. I thought about scaling down to 600w bulbs (luckily I have digital, adjustable ballasts) also but that kinda defeats my growing mantra. I like things overkill.

I'm thinking it was a little less my wife said I did my math wrong but $125 an oz is still good for some killer smoke and my first time with 2 plants. If I were to move my grow in that kind of space I would probably do the 3 @1000 on movers too. Pretty sure it would get hot but nothing an ac wouldn't fix. I run 2 window units in the summer and like 5 fans and my bill still isn't all that much. Highest in winter lucky enough to have $100 power bills in spring. With my lights probably another $50 so I'm thinking just by comparing last bill. And can't wait for my yield results. For the money spent on the ballast I'll get my return from clones at the very least. With plenty of smoke from the moms to keep money in my pocket. I love my mh/hps.

So when breeding cannabis is it a good thing to breed genetics for a dioecious cannabis plant instead of a monoecious plant? Lol....

Ah.... the dreaded "ballsacks"..... From the plant's perspective, this is a milestone in the evolutionary chain of adaptation. Truly a hallmark, what once took two now only takes one, downsizing at its finest. However it sucks for the breeder and for the future of growing cannabis. I'm tired of seeing this in my grow room but there is no reason to be upset as it has been stemming from my own habits of growing bagseed. It is what it is, perhaps the clones will be of less headaches.

The wierd part: the male pods are not releasing staminates with pollen, instead they open with pistillate growth. This is what has me posting about it because I haven't seen this before. I hypothesize that the plant grows the male appendages in advance preparation of a forseen stress event and decides at a certain point wether to commit to pollen or pistils depending on the immediate circumstance. Luckily, right now I'm dialed in so not much stress in the grow room. I will definitely be monitoring the outcomes of these pods and assess the viability of future runs with this strain and keep some photos specifically about these "appendages" - now I'm not sure what to call them. "Jenners?" Oh no...

Hmm they're growing pistils? I would pluck them off with a wet paper towel and keep an eye on it. Hope they're just large calyx. With a couple seeds will still be killer smoke. Good luck.
 
I don’t think these are “ballsacks”. My Girl Scout Cookies have them and I thought that at first but then they grew pistils! There are 2 at almost all nodes. All the males or Hermies I had were lil bunches of them. Keep your fingers crossed I think they will be ok!
