Thanks, how should I separate them? i wanted to leave the roots in a little soil when i took em out. I was scared of really messing with them if i separated them, but would it be a big problem if I waited till they showed some preflowers till doin that? Or do they really drain each others nutes alot before then? To separate would i just carefully take em outta the soil and slowly pull em apart? I stopped by a couple hours after the plant to water and they looked awesome! really adjusting well so far. Thanks for the help!:jointsmile::hippy:

yea I only saw what looked like bug problems in the first couple pics.. they are looking great now. also.. the earlier to seperate them the better.. just make sure you keep the roots intact when you do so and they'll never know the diff.. it'll just take them a few days to conitnue their growth.

Someone to feel free to correct me if I am wrong... I would water them pretty well, Then I would take the dirt ball as a whole out of the container. I would let the dirt break apart and fall off the roots as naturally possible, then I would use water to wash the rest of the dirt away. Then I would replant them and hit them with some more water when you are done. Thats what i have done and have had success with

So I was talking with some growing buddies and they said that planting more than one in a hole is a good idea. If you are going from seed you are gonna get some males, so why waste the energy and resources digging a separate hole fore each one? I am going to try this next season with mine, could put a few in each hole and hopefully have at least one female per hole
Good Luck

they will compete for root space together...so basically if your male grows stronger than your females it will kill them off and you will end up with the male anyways. In a nutshell you will have wasted more energy figuring out what is what with them all bunched up then having them separated from each other.
