1st timer, w/Hydroton, could use a little help...

Look at the first pic, right in the middle, right where the 3rd set of branches meets the main stem. They look like little heads of lettuce... Are you sure its not a male?

Its driving me crazy. They're on a few more spots today.

oh ok i see what ur talking about it's a lil fuzzy/blured but if those lil balls have stems u know like a trich has a stem with a ball on the end of it then yes it's a male fems are like 1 set per node males will start growing all over the place on the stem in the node all over and they will cluster up too so if u start to see the stems u need to cut as when the stem grows and the lil ball droops over then it's about to or already have dropped it's pollen i like to chop when i start to see the stem and the balls start to cluster

on a female, what comes first. The calyx or the pistil?

Those little hairs are a good sign it's female.

I don't know, maybe these will help, maybe you've seen them.

First one is male, 2nd female. I thought yours looked more like the 2nd one.

I think I've seen those before but thank you. Truth is, I've been looking for a reason to get rid of one and make some more room for the rest. So I removed it. I really felt like the other four need the space.

Aside from the big plant, supposedly mango kush, the others have had a really slow 2 weeks. Not much has changed, gained a little height, a little new growth, but not much more.... Or less for that matter... They still look healthy and are not showing any other signs of stress. I'll get a few pics tomorrow. Thank you all for the help. Keep it coming.

Today is day 14 for the clones and still no roots. The tips are yellowing now. I'm still feeding them RO water with some B1. Do I need to change or add anything?

[palerider7777]

did u use cloning gel?? it's funny i cut a clone about a week ago and i had a bucket of water/nutes i pumped out of the res and the ppm's were at 1300 and i just stuck it in the bucket without doing anything to it as i did'nt cut it for the clone but because my mother was growing so much i was running out of room so i cut it and stuck it into the bucket and after about a week theres new growth so im very suprized at this as it's been sittin in 1300ppm nute water mix and theres no burning or anything and it's growing lmao and it goes against everything iv'e read so who knows...

yeah I used roottech (the technaflora product), also soaked the Rapid Rooter plugs in Root 66 and some B1. I've been spraying them with really weak B1 for the last 2 weeks. I'm pretty sure I did everything right when I cut them. I cut them all at once, put them in water right away, 45 degree angle, a couple 1/4" slits down the side, into the gel, into the plug. The first dome I had didn't seal very well and dried out really quickly, this dried the plugs out pretty quick too. The humidity was not where it should have been. I picked up the new dome and the heating mat on day 7 and have been using it ever since. They look really healthy aside form the yellow leaf tips and NO ROOTS! What's making them yellow?
