flowering Q

how many days into the 12/12 cycle will i start to notice anything i mean they are growing pretty quick but other then that.... oh and it kinda smells but that could just be me...

You will M&M sized buds after a week

ok i am like 3 days in thanks

1-3 weeks you'll see white pistils if they're female....then they will start to show buds starting to form rapidly for 3 weeks or so and then growth will level off......towards the end another burst of growth typically happens, typically in the form of the buds swelling and becoming more resinous..... resin formation and the amount of resin varies from strain to strain. keep an on the trichs w/a magnifier...they will indicate when its time to harvest

when they get cloudy right? and i am only on day 4 now and day 2 for another one... so like a week in and it will sex?

thanks for the help

harvest is up to you depending on the high you like

in short ...
clear - cerebreal head high, but not very strong or long lasting
cloudy/milky - strong cerebreal high - less body more head
amber - couchlock - more body less head

now all the trichs wont be one color at the same time..... so its up to you really.
some wait till most are cloudy with some still clear....some wait till all cloudy and 10% or more amber

just remember amber indicates THC is degrading.....the degrading THC still gets you high its just a different type of high - more couchlock

1-3 weeks pistils will form indicating sex, remember they are super tiny at first and very hard to see w/the naked eye....use a magnifier

i am growing 4 at a time and they all came out at diff times so non are the same size and the biggest one it was a week into flower and i found balls and i looked at all the pics of females and males... it had clusters of the at the top of the plant too.. but i have another one that i put in flower 4 days ago and i just put another one in today.. i have 2 single plant boxes for flowering.... i'll post pics of the next ones some time
