still doing good another set of leafs grew. also watered it today since top soil was crusty.
Used purified water from tap ( got one of those water filters on it)
I water just enough to cover the whole top soil of pot like quarter of an inch

has ur pot got holes in the bottom??
if so just pour water slowly til it trickles out the bottom, works with all gardening and last time i grew
just remember to allow time for the water to soak through the soil, so dont go pouring loads on cuz it ent coming out the bottom pour a little bit wait for 10sec or soo then agen and agen....til it trickles out the bottom
:stoned::stoned::jointsmile:
you don't want to do that. you want to saturate "all" of your medium. you also want to allow for some run-off. this will wash-out (flush) built up nutes. if you continue to water the way you mentioned, you will quickly accumulate an abundance of nutes in your medium, causing your plants to burn...Quote:

so i should water it like every 4 days then one day water it till it drains through to flush it?
(hopes its female looked like the areas where the pistils or pollen sacks have sprouted something but to early to tell)
ive got some 12-8-4 fert should i use that instead or once i transplant it to a bigger container?
~tell me if i doing something wrong just dont be mean :P hope to grow more long life to live~
Also charged battery's for camera ill take some more pics but it probably hasn't changed much ~8mp is pretty good with super close up~
if you used pre-ferted medium, then including the nutes you add with water, i'd say your the medium is full of nutes. i copied bushy old grower's methods when i started growing. he used pre-ferted medium too. he would decrease the amount of base nutes by about 1/4 to compensate for the nutes in the medium. as for your watering/feeding schedule, only water/feed, when the plant dries up between them. in soil, feed once a week. between feedings, water with properly ph'd plain water. i like getting run-off when i water/feed, some folks don't. you'll find what method works best for you. if'n i was you, when i transplant, i wouldn't use pre-ferted medium. i like knowing what they're getting when i feed. plus, a lot of those mediums include vermiculite. i don't like verm. at all! i like letting the medium dry up naturally, and that stuff just gets in the way of that.Quote:

If its a male ill just let it grow...
it's got that overwatered look/droop.
Well its doing good had a good bit of growth shot up like 2-3 inches and started sprouting between the leafs and stems so i assume ill be able to tell the sex in a couple days
ill take some pics later
