Wow Dude, those are some long sentences....:jointsmile:

Well, first off, welcome to cannacom.

"if there is anyway you can tell wether the plants will be m/f before the sexing shows, and when does the sexing show"

There is no sure way to tell, sex shows when days are getting shorter and the plants are sexually mature. That's gonna happen soon, but in a few weeks i think you will know for sure.
Stop using that slug killer. It's bad for you and the nature.
You can get rid of some slugs, if you clear away the grass/weeds around your plants....slugs don't really like open space...1-2 foot in diameter will be just fine...
You should get some good nutes for the plants. Find a hydro store or a grow shop, and buy some organic nute for cannabis....Like Fox Farm or BioBizz, BioCanna....It's not cheap, but the plants gonna thank you for it...

Peace....:hippy:

definitely follow Zeb's advice. Especially regarding the slugs! and the nutrients too. If you feed them cheap food the resulting bud will be lackluster. Big up to the constitution state...lived there many moons ago

1. Flowers (or pre-flowers in the early stage of flowering) are the only way to tell the sex of a plant.

2. Good vegetative nutes have a high "N" value, good flowering nutes have a high "P" value (most fertilizers list their N-P-K numbers on the label).

3. I personally don't have a problem with you using pesticides... as long as you use it in the smallest amount possible. You definitely should stop when flowering starts... preferably a few weeks before, at least.

The thing is, if you clear 2 feet around every plant it might make your plants extremely easy to spot from the air... and it sounds like you have a relatively large grow since you say you have lost 15 plants. Its sort of like having to pick between the lesser of two evils... using poison to kill slugs (and which might kill a few other animals), or increasing your chance of going to jail for an untold number of years. You are the only one who can really make that choice for yourself.

Finally, use periods... sentences, commas, etc. my friend. Please. It makes it easier for people to read and understand what you are saying.

Slugs can be trapped with beer bait. they LOVE beer. Put it in a small dish near base of plant and slugs will drink-n-drown. Beer can be stale doesn't matter. Can use a beer can or use a plastic bottle cap and dig it down even with soil then fill with beer. AND it's ORGANIC lol.

I dont know about the effects on the soil, but slugs like melt
when you put salt on them!

so the slug killer stuff will harm me when i smoke the finished product thats not good for me but i have only used it twice and the plants are much bigger now n the slugs havent been on them for almost 2 weeks now and im using horse and cow manure and sometimes adding a little bit of plant food but much less than recomended because the poop has alot of the good stuff in it but please let me know about the slug killer thanks

oh yeah, sorry guys i am blind in one eye so my typing will always be wrong because it is hard to focus on the keys,but i will try harder.. thanks j-man

your initial instinct to stop using a pesticide when flowers form is a good one.
You should be fine; just use the beer traps from here on in. Cut the top off a beer can and sink it into the soil right near the base of your plant.

how long should i have to do the beer can whenever it dries up.

yeah, just keep some liquid in there.

thanks for advice much apprecited -spellin wrong-

They have plenty of non toxic slug and snail killers that are safe to use. They are made out of iron phosphate which is in soil naturally in soil.
