Question
I
have two bushy short plants I think are female I can almost bet
money on it. So there's my mother plants for the next generation.
One plant is doing fine but the other one seems to be budding even
though the lights are on 18 hrs. a day. The buds look kind of funny
too they are long with no leaves but lots of bud pods and a yellow
resin that powders off if you move the branches is that normal?
Answer
Sound more like you have a male plant there. They
form bud like looking things with no leaves and the yellow resin
sounds more like pollen. Look to see if any of the pollen sacks have
opened and an open pollen sack looks like a miniature flower with
lot of yellow dust on it. I would remove that plant from where the
other one is unless you want to seed your other plant.
Question
Are male plants good for anything besides
breeding female plants?
Answer
Male plants are good for making blonde hash and
for making some good oil or if you like to smoke leaf once in a
while.
Question
What's the biggest plant you have ever seen and
what strain was it?
Answer
The biggest as in tallest plant I have ever seen
was about 18 feet high. It was just an ordinary sativa plant that
was tacked up on the side of a house like a vine. It ended up
producing 5 lbs. of dry mid to low grade bud. The biggest healthiest
plant not counting the size would have been an 8 foot tall Texada
Time Warp.
