Cheers Revanche and Hydro
Its a bagseed grow so unfortunatly I have no idea what strain it is but id suspect its a hybrid mix of indica and sativa mabe something like 40% indica and 60% sativa since it never had fat leaves and at the same time they wernt super thin
It was also a bit slow to grow, could have been due to the age of the seed? not to mention that it started out life outdoors
Im going to order a microscope off e-bay and hopefully it should get to me in the next few days as none of the local shops here stock anything better than a 5x magnifine glass..... 
from what read on the net flowering can take from 50 to 90+ days so im guessing iv got @ a minimun another 13 days to go before harvest  _S

day 42 we have a problem or do we? false seed pods or hermi?
I pulled the plant out of the box for a quick check over and if you'v read the other thread i posted I noticed some ball things on my buds which i think are the start of a few seeds
Or are they false seed pods??
I pray that they are as I looked over my plant througherly and could not find any bannana things or male flowers anywhere
I did find some strange things which you will see in the 1st pic but they have been there every since the plant 1st showed its sex and havent changed much and have had hair come out of them in the past

Anyhow I went all over the plant and removed all of the things that were on it that can be seen on the 1st pic
Iv chopped off the 2 buds that had the balls on them as they were tiny anyway and I dont want my plant putting its energy into any kind of seed production
I squeezed one of the ball/seed/pod things and a clear liquid came out but thats about all
All other buds, most importantly the tops appear to be fine with no sign of balls or swelling
will check plant every 2nd day for new growths

well my ebay microscope arrived today
its a bit hard to use on the buds so i decided to trim a tiny 1mm piece off and have a look on a flat level non moving surface
so far im seeing a mixture of clear and milky tricombs no rusty ones yet but then again plant hasent been flowering long enough yet
iv posted up some pics which look pretty crap but its super hard to take a photo using the microscope

day 46
Had a good look over the plant again and could not find any male flowers anywhere
I did find another swolen calax on one of the tops all by itself when I was cutting away some dead leaf which I hadent noticed before due to the position of the bud
But apart from that nothing else
Im posting another pic of one of the false seed pods that I left on a popcorn bud down the bottom of the plant... looks to green to be a seed considoring its allready split open the calax
Also posting a pic of the plant with a pepsi can so theres a better guide of what the scale the size of everything is

As requested
1st pic is not the crown but the tallest cola you can see in the other pic in my previous post to the far right no flash used
the other pic is of one of the smaller tops pretty much dead centre in the pic in the previous post flash used

Did a light flush yesterday using about 3L of water
Also picked off one of the more mature looking popcorn buds and quick dried it in the microwave, "yes i know that sounds crazy but it works just remember to use low or med low for no more than 5 to 7 secs @ a time and to move the bud and wipe up the moisture"
Worked a treat got me nice and stoned for a good couple of hours 
Had another look under the microscope at the tricombs
looks like 95% of them are cloudy with about 4% clear and 1% rusty
I think another 2 weeks would make it even better but unfortunatly I am going to have to harvest @ the end of the month due to someone moving into the room I have been using to grow in
so the total flowering time will have been 60 days or just over 8 and a 1/2 weeks
I will do another flush on the 26th
Anyone got some hints on what to do besides flushing during the last week before harvest?

I dont think my box will be big enough for 2 to 4 plants maybe 2 @ max if you dont let them 2 long before you flower them
All you need is a hot glue gun, hinges, plumbing PVC pipe, flat white paint, computer power suppply, computer case fan/s, 2 to 3 boxes depending on how tall you want to make it, knife and a jijsaw if you are going to stack 3 boxes to cut out the bottoms of 2 boxes
Then fill with as many CFL's as you can
There are lots of other threads on the fourms here with lots of helpfull info
