Hia all, im getting myself into a kind of pickle here..

i really really needed theese to be done b4 x-mas but i kind of stunted them during seedling stage so im guessing theire bout 1 week BEHIND scheduale (self diagnosis by watching other plants bout its age) anyways they are indica dominant (bout 80% indica) and now they are 1 month + 3 days into vegg (from seedling popped earth)

growing in coco with 600w HPS

been giving them bout 80-100% feeding every second watering
they got 5 true leaf sets with a nice round bushy body and its getting a fatter stem as we speak.

i think they are bout 6-7 inches tall.


i belive the plants has a flowering date 6-7 weeks (normally 6)

Question: if i flower now to make it to x-mas, will i loose ALOT of bud? contra to wait 1 more week? (i can not wait any longer.. :( )
^
^-- i understand i will loose bud but would it be MUCH compared to the 1 extra week? are we talking maybe ill loose like 5 g's of each plant or 50`? in the roundaboutes areas lol.. i also realize u dont KNOW the exact number...


second smaller question: Usually when i see plants with 5-6 sets of leaves they are about 10 inches tall. is mine a bit smaller in height because i have used 600w HPS from seed?

HPS is bout 25-28 inches from tops. cant have em closer cus of heat!

sorry for this double post but i forgot something!

Important: I am now growing in 3.5 L pots, i got 10L pots for females but i hoped they would show some sign by now so i didnt have to waist alot of coco and nutes on males in those BIG fucking pots.. dont think i can fit them all in my tent rly.. got 10 plants now im counting on 5-6 females..


Should i repot ALL of them now? 3L pots for these plants good enough or way to small?

or can they last 1-2 more weeks?

you can either cut clones, and once rooted flower them and see which are female, then you can scrap the males and then transplant, or you can just flower everything they re-vert back to veg and then transplant (or just transplant and leave in 12/12, they will be fine).
