4th day flowering and only 1 plant outa 5 is showing sex?
been showing for 3 days, dunno what sex though
it looks like a v with a small bud thing inside? (could be a male)
could that mean 4 are probably female as they show later than males?
:woohoo:

4th day flowering and only 1 plant outa 5 is showing sex?
been showing for 3 days, dunno what sex though

:woohoo:
maybe i should be more patient but wot do you reckon?
oh and the 4 not yet showing sex are shorter and very bushy where the other is tall and not bushy
ps why does my plant food smell like piss when added to water?(BIO-GRO, BIO-BLOOM)
plz i need a pro's advice
i'll be overjoyed if i get 4 to 1 ratio i was expecting 1 or 2 females
damn these things are getting to big will they ever slow down?....anyone=(
still only one showing
im starting to regret starting this to much agro and noone wants to help me :sadcrying:
these plants have doubled size since flower started 5 days ago and im worried they will just outgrow my wardrobe
topped em once and i heard toppin is bad in flower mode
plz help
be alittle more patient it can take alittle time to show sex
i dont have experience with your nutes, but some stink bad and some dont, i prefer the ones that dont stink
they will get real tall, double in size depending on strains, sometimes sativas will get more than double. i wouldnt recomend topping cause the plant would have to change its energy from budding to healing. i would recommend trying lst first
i may have to lst but is it possible there already up 2 my groin?
i was expecting them to double in size in total not in 1 week lol will they slow down at all
hope i get 2 males as im outa space
thanks for answering mate
hey hey jchap :) nah you can lst anytime whatso ever mate, i had to lst my ppp 5 weeks in because apparently the light at 6" just isn't enough so i have laid my colas down almost flat, should also get harder buds that way.
ideal cabnet would be 8' tall, i wouldn't worry about nute smell to much (you don't have to like it) just as long as she does :) i personally use canna A + B through all veg and flowering i use 5ml too every 2 litres every two days (or needed) good way is to stick your finger about three inches into the soil and if its dry? water it. i also increase nutes through flower i now use 7.5ml to every 2 litres with the canna bloom booster.
i had to wait a few weeks to tell sexes i started with 6 ended up with the one female although 3 died due to shock :( i changed light and i think the IR was a bit too much for them :( expect them to double in size in the first few weeks and some can triple.
i was in the kitchen with a repair man whilst he was plumbing a new tap and i could smell piss i bet he could
sorry to hear you only got one female, how much do u think you'll get at harvest?
and what showed first male or fem?
i use the weight technique to water and my closet is 6 foot plants are already half way up
will the grow slow down at some point
i can swap rooms as my veg room is 12 foot but that means alot of hassle
i have thai in flower and bubblelicious in veg :hippy:
also does that fert pen and ink (stink)?
i'll post pics soon im really proud of em
i havent tried the pen tbh although i would start to lst them anyway just to get better penitration through the cannopy. the male showed first by around 4 days i should be looking at around 5-6 ounces i reckon all being well but next time i will try scrog i should get more for less that way.
in the mornings is it normal whilst flowering to get drops of water on the leaves?
still no sex signs-_-
keep you humidity down otherwise you can get mould drop your humidity levels to around 50-55% i dont think you should get water drops as i never have (except prop)
i took me a week on the dot and i had 2 lil white hairs
i use bio-bloom and bio-grow.
i think it kinda smells sweet.
unless your nutes are really old i wouldnt worry about it
ok they are all showing now but i still can tell the sex(10 days flowering)
they all have the same tear like things
but i dunno 2 soon still 2 early to tell, they could be balls? but tear shaped?
few more days and i'll probably know
hurry up hairs
i found the reasonQuote:

GENERALLY the tear shaped ones should come out female but i have seen them stalk out a little then grow balls my ppp is 95% sat that too was about 2 weeks for female and 1 week for male
They should already have pistels if they are female and you can see the preflowers.
If not, they are male.
Don't quote me though, I have to see pictures before I can tell you for sure what they are.
The pistels will start growing out of the female flower almost as soon as the preflower developes. I'v even had to use a small magnifiying glass one time to check the sex of a couple of my plants. Sure as shit you can see the pistels when they are SMALL...
If you want people to be able to help you with sexing your plants you HAVE to post some pictures dude.
The sexing time table is not based on the sex of the plant, it is based on the genetics of the plant. Different strains become sexually mature at different times.Quote:
about 2 weeks for female and 1 week for male
Basically what I'm saying is you shouldn't say "males show sex before females" because that is not true. In a lot of situations you may be led to believe this because you have two different strains and one just happened to become sexually mature before the other/s based on it's genetic traits, NOT because it was male.
cheers for the advice
all 5/5 have pistels, really fucking small they are coming from the teardrops
im just waiting for them to be joined by balls!
someone told me that thai was naturally a hermi, that why you get seeds in thai grass
is that true?
ok they got female pistels on the very top but nowhere else
can anyone tell me what to expect over the next month
also it's dry around here and was wondering if smoking the leaves is worthwhile as im clucking
nope DO NOT SMOKE THE LEAVES esp at this point.(it'll smell like weed and maybe taste like weed but the effects won't get you high might just make you feel sick though). in a few days to a week or two those tears will slowly open with alot more pistles just keep checking for males every other day (when watering and training is easiest) get to know your plant in every detail and check every flower for balls (could get a hermi). lst would be best started now if you havent already (should have through veg, but only if thats what you want). and come on get some pics up
not gonna bother with lst, they wont grow 12 foot will they?
pics will come soon, just gotta borrow my cousin's camera and laptop
managed to get some skunk so it's all good...for now :stoned:
beautiful looking sativas they are
oops i got a problem
plants are all droopy and seem to need watering more often, there more droopy at the bottoms?
help!
i have that on every grow i've done the plants canopy gets to a point when light cannot penitrate enough to the bottom sets of fan leaves so they kinda starve mylar could sort this but im too lazy to do it lol
i have tucked the fan leaves away, do u think that my be the problem, got mylar
thats the only reson i've managed to come up with to explain why it happens to mine and my mates using two different nutes and set ups although we both use a 400W don't be too bothered about the lower fans dying off the plant will seal these quickly without wound so infection isn't a problem. just don't worry about it or fit some floro's at the bottom if you are but personally i wouldn't and don't.
seems they where thirsty, perked right up
will inrease watering
decided to lst now as these are fucking giants
no need to support the bases am i right? cause there past bieng fragile
Your plants are always fragile.
(Probably too late but just an FYI)
Let your fan leaves fall off, don't tuck or clip them. Doing so will allow the plant to determine when it doesn't require them.
Remember, the only things we can control in indoor growing are the elements. Removing healthy leaves is usually a negative factor in growth.
mine has a strong indica in it... that could be it post up some pics i want to seeQuote:

so during flowering its normal for fan leaves to fall off????
Yes, in a way. Just not at an extreme rate.Quote:

However, the leaves will not get crispy or brown, they will simply turn yellow and fall off. If they become brown and crispy it's usually a sign of a deficiency or fert-burn.
That's the general idea of it anyway.
oh so if they slowly turn yellow thats normal shit... i have been freaking out as to why they were slowly turning yellow and falling off it has only happened to 4 i though it was nute burn thanks guys
yea only a couple turnred yellow a dropped off
so where do the buds form? at the pistels?
also they should stop growing tall soon right?
theses plants are 6 foot nearly
