Updated pics :)
To me, looks like quite a bit of growth from the last pics.
Showing more signs of nute burn on all of the lower leaves.
Thinking about cutting off the leaves with extreme nute burn, Good idea?Or should I leave them? And if so..the whole leave with the stem or just the leave itself?
I love watching day to day to see the differences :thumbsup:

Update! :)
Height wise I don't really see a difference
Bushy wise ;)... It seems to have more
Still some nute burn but don't see too much more from before...
It is about 14 days into flower (12/12) and still no signs of sex:wtf::(
The stems seem to have more stems coming off them now :)
*I need to transplant soon but was hoping to find out sex first :mad:
->Not too much more going on, just waiting and watching...hoping for a girl:jointsmile:
here are some pics:

:thumbsup:I have not yet grown a single stem all my knowledge comes from reading these forums, so please take this with a grain of salt.
You mentioned you are using MG, is it straight from the bag? I have read alot of posts suggesting adding perlite 1:4 to cut down somewhat on the nutes. Also I believe you stated you water every 3 days or so. If it were my grow I would probably transplant after sexing and after she is settled for a a couple of light cycles, keeping her good and drenched with good drainage for several days to get rid of some excess nutes in the MG. I would check the PPM of the run off and when it gets down pretty low, I would perhaps add some budding nutes.
Again, I could be totally off base here. If so please forgive my ignorance. Good luck with your grow!!

^bkbbudz... I think your pretty spot on:thumbsup:
I have already added about 1/5 of my pot with perlite and mixed it well in with the MG Soil.
Budding nutes are out of the question for me right now :( and since it is my first grow I might just go mostly nature on it, just to keep things a little simple.

poker 2 your plants are looking nice and we..:thumbsup:
but i notice in the secend post how your CFL are just hanging there..
you should take some cardboard or antihing like that and paint it white or use mylar to stop losing lumens..just make a we shades around them,cos i would say youir losing at least 30% of lumens that way...i might be wrong but just wanted da let you know..best of luck with your growing:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Hey Dexter007 - I'm not sure what you mean by your plants are looking nice "and we..:thumbsup:" ...But i Like the "Nice" Part :)
I'll look into what you are saying. Might as well give it a try considering I don't see any negative effects that can have.
^I will do some reading and look around for something that I can use... If I can find some maylar for a really good price ;) then I might get some to put on the dark floor of mines :)

For those of you that are following me ;)... just though I'd post a written update..if there's no one then i'll talk to myself LOL:stoned::wtf: - some pics in a few days (because theres not too much of a difference right now from the last pics)
1.I HAD TO change the time the lights were on and off (I know not the greatest thing to do, but it was a must) I figured instead of an extra 12 hours of light I did an extra 12 hours of darkness... So it was in a 24hour dark period for a day..
2.The temperature dropped a bit during this time because I was unable to monitor it (it was around 19 degrees)... now able to check it out and have it back to 22-26 degree range
3. The girl;) still looks the same as before so im guessing/hoping that the light change didn't really affect her.
Just a question of curiosity.... I have been looking and reading around a lot for a long time and have seen many grows where people 2-3 weeks into flower have buds growing on their girls already... I'm 2 weeks into flower (12/12) and don't even have a sign of sex? Am I really far behind? Or is it dependant strain to strain?
Ps. Dexter, just saw you signature - "english is not your first language" so i'm guessing your comment was a 100% positive :thumbsup: Thanks for following my grow mate!:hippy::jointsmile: (honestly though, IMHO I can't tell english isn't your first language)... but now Back On Topic! :)

Hey :thumbsup: been reading your posts, I'm only just starting my first grow so I cant give you much advice unfortunetly.
Apart from the nute burn your plant is looking like a little beauty!

1. I changed like that too. Its fine
2. 19 degrees is OK. Don't worry about every little thing my friend.
3. I told you its fine :)
And about flowers. Well, it can be strain depended and/or plant is not mature enough yet to show sex. You know sex is an adult thing :D
And your plant wasn't all in good conditions from the beginning right? Give some time. Look from the positive sides. Females show their sex later than males, so, there you may have probably a female ;)

@Bookmark that's exactly what I'm using. :)
----23W, 100w equivalent cfls (4 daylight,2 other ones..don't remember name)
Tevfik Thanks for the reassurance and for ALL the help :)
Also thanks to anyone else who is following, I'll keep you guys updated..
Some of the very bottom leaves are practically dead(don't think you can see in pic) so i'll probably get a clean razor, clean it and take those off.
