Bubble Gum in cabinet. When to flower? Pics!
OK, I am posting pics here to show what I got going on.
I have 4 Bubble Gum (Serious) growing currently in a converted Phototron that has 5 CFLs hanging. They are vegging beautifully! Really, really compact with small nodes. My question is, when SHOULD I start to flower -I have a cabinet with 1 sq. ft. of space and a 70w HPS light where I can SCROG.
Also, do the preflowers on these inidcate whether it is male or female or is it still too hard to tell. The seedlings were started on July 8th, 4 weeks ago.
One of the BG's is being trained (LST), one is being just fimmed (Fuck, I Missed!) and one is having nothing done to it. The last one is a retard that got dropped on its head several times, and it remains to be seen if it will even survive.
Any and all comments and observations welcome. This is my first grow and I just threw out my 2 biggest plants which were bagseed hermies that I grew cause I wanted to get at least some experience before I went to the BGs.

I really would appreciate some help from someone. I desperately want to smoke this bubble gum but don't want to be too hasty.

1. When should I start flowering?
2. If you get a close up on the first pic (tall plant), can you tell if those preflowers are of a boy or girl?

Jeebus!
What do I have to do? Beg?
OK, PLEEEEEEASE! Someone with some experience SCROGGING in a small cabinet, please give me some advice!
I want to know when to go to flower and I want to know if I can tell from the pre-flowers if it is a girl or boy, because I need to replant soon I think.

They are not old enough to flower, they are only a month old from being sprouted? or did I read that wrong? sorry little stoned. But anyways I would wait for alternating nodes(sexually mature) before I put them into flower because force flowering could cause them to turn hermi.
I am no expert grower thou.

Yes, they are one month from germination.
Alternating nodes is a good sign to look for then? When I see that, it means that it is sexually mature?
I have many beautiful preflowers on it though...
Certainly don't want any more hermies though!

Make sure you are not mistaking preflowers for stipules, I think thatā??s there name. Female flowers will have pistils coming out of a calyx. When I looked at your photos I did not see any preflowers visible, but yet that could be me just being blind. Some strains donā??t go alternating nodes, and I am not familiar with the growth pattern of bubble gum so this could be a possibility. Someone with way more experience should chime in sometime to help. I would personally veg for longer to get more growth to it. Some more branches. And possible bud sites.

I may indeed be making a mistake. Could you please look at the last of the 5 photos above (the tallest of the plants). If you zoom in, you will see what I am referring to.

I circled in read what I think you are mistaking for preflowers, if so these grow at every node and are actually not preflowers. Just give it some time it is still pretty young maybe another 2 to 3 weeks to show sex but maybe sooner or longer.
