Is Tom Cruise or Katie Holmes in my closet? (male/female ID help)

[nailbiter99]

whats up people, any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated cause this is my first time and could use any advice:hippy:


i need some help IDing this plant. ive thought it was male for about 2 weeks just because i have yet to see any white hairs grow, its a sativa and its taking its time flowering (first/2nd picture) .. we are about 3 weeks into flowering with 250 W from a Sunleaves Pioneer IV Grow T5 fluorescent fixture with four VitaLUME PLUS T5 Grow tubes.



also just wondering what you think about the 3rd picture, possible hermie?


if you could check out 4th and 5th picture, it just shows one of the budding tops and our closet set up. we started growing in mid february and had healthy plants up until the day after we went to 12/12. we had to move them up to the attic one afternoon on little notice and they all almost died. so we had to rejuvenate them and started the flowering again about 2-3 weeks later. we lost alot of the plants and im suprised the 6 we have now survived.


weve been using pureblend grow and bloom through out.

any advice to maximise their potential would be awesome

thanks yall

here are the 1st three pictures

its really hard to tell. they may be males due to the stress of almost dying and they seem really stretched for being a bit past flowering.

In all the pix it just looks like the buds forming. Don't see any bananas

i just added 40 W of fluros and are about to add another 40 W fixture on the lower wall so that the bottom part of the plants get more light

i got 2 oscillating fans on either side and a humidifier on the floor because it can get hot in there in the afternoons

i was just worried about that sativa because its the only one without white hairs

if thouse were my plants I would tie them down. then drop the lights down to get more light to the plants.

I had to do that to a few of my sativas I had in the past.
I have learned that low stress training became my sativas best friend.
well thats my :twocents: about it.

and heres a pic of what low stress training a sativa would look like.
I just made it.

well good luck on that.

^ ah that is a good idea thanks man

[nailbiter99]

here is an update ... please let me know what u think

i trained them to bend parallel to the ground and light .. so the light is directly on the entire stalk .. its helped ALOT

theyre about 5 weeks into flowering .. are they where they should be at this point?

[hydrocannabis]

well I glad it worked out for U. do u got a pic of the whole plants all tied down?

remember, Sativa's take almost 4 months to flower when they are 100% sativas.
