Those should be flowering already- huh. My guys who do outdoor in VT already have some weight on.
Males are useless. Really.

I started them a little late...I don't know if that has anything to do with it. It was probably mid to late May. Also I was just reading some other posts. I leave on an outdoor light on all night long that is above the plants on the house...could this be affecting them? Thanks for your input StinkyAttic :thumbsup:

That is your problem right there. The light is keeping them in veg, despite the fact that they are very obviously sexually mature.
You only have about a month and a half left before first frost- turn that light off NOW!!!

The light is OFF from now on...thanks again Stinky. If I start doing that now a month and a half is enough to let them flower?

[Nikolella]

Oh and Stinky...am I correct in saying that you can not tell the sex until they flower or can you tell before?

[stinkyattic]

I didn't see any preflowers on yours. Turn off the lights and you should see sex in about a week.
Flower time is strain dependent- if it was bagseed, you will just have to wait and see what you can pull by the time frost hits.

Some of mine started to show sex a couple weeks ago and a few I still can't tell. Wierd how that works but I think in my case it is because of shade in the late afternoon, gets darker sooner.
Also I have five different strains going so they also may have much different flowering times. That's what I get for using free seeds, I also had a bunch of males and not so many females. Learned my leason, back to clones.

There is a helluva lot to be said for living in California on the Central Coast!

So I turned the outdoor floodlight off and since then they've started to flower. They've been going for a little over a week now. I'm just starting to worry about the weather:stoned:
