Can anybody help...

Right i got four plants all growing i have them covered with 3 flourescent 1054 lumen bulbs their hieghts are 16, 14, 10 and 9inches they are 3 weeks 5 days old i thinking of putting them into flowering on the 5th week i have been adding baby bio original fertillizer to the soil also im using tomato soil for them to grow in their room is foiled cardboard with raise and lower levels so i can adjust height to the lights, what im really asking is how to tell if they are females by looking at my pictures which i will attach are they looking healthy, how can i stop them growing so high without cutting them and how to flower them properly also checking sexes.

Thanks Joni :rastasmoke:

Which part of this connected with plant problems i didn't get?
Start from here: http://boards.cannabis.com/basic-gro...-dankness.html
Then jump here if you can't get what you need: Cannabis Forums Message Boards - Medical Marijuana, Cannabis Club, Dispensary, News - Search Forums

If you want to build something to keep them from growing taller, research the word "scrog," or "screen of green" as it applies to plants. I don't see many people growing that way in these forums, but Google can help if you can't find that info here. It's building a screen of chicken wire or something similar to prevent them from getting tall. If I were you I would just let them grow some more, then cut the top. They will continue to get taller but they will bush out too.
About the sexing, this plant needs around 12 hours of light and 12 of darkness to begin to show sex. Once you start this light cycle don't stop it. Females will show white hair-like structures at the base of some branches, where the branch comes out of the trunk. Males will begin to show structures that have sacks of pollen, little balls, if you will.

tie the tops to the pots use a drill and some string to tie the tops to the pots this bends them down and if your concerned about hight when you put them into flower they double inn size, if not double they have a size increase so start tieng and start flowering and be gental
