I never seen it happen,but in some more time maybe they will show all female for u.

well i thought why this could be happening.....two things.....1st because these two will mature maybe a week or two later ...or...2nd because they are under a different bulb....they are under a grilux while the others are under an SHP-TS that is special for flowering......today is day 35/56......i think i am going to change the bulbs to see if there is going to be any difference for 3-4 days....it's crazy man....you can clearly see the buds forming, looking like small spears but thc levels are low compared to the rest of the team that is packed with thc.....beautiful flowers.....luckilly though the smell levels are still low....i have an ioniser coming in the end of this week anyway

It also may be different strains. Did you order from a bank or just got bagseed?

[newgroweroldsmoker]

well....all of them are the same strain.....i think that i found out why this is happenning......simply because the ones that are behind are root bound and their develpoment are somehow a bit retarded compared to the other ones.....these two are five foot trees into two gallon pots...anyway, i am into week six and all looks good so far.....even the two plants in question they have multiple buds and 8 inch colas that have started filling,getting bigger and producing , like bspectral mentioned above, more thc.....i guess that these will be harvested last....judging from their size and buds i should get around 3-4oz from each one.....the strain is called Twilight feminised from Dutch Passion.....in a few days i will try with my shitty camera to give a better view of how a nearly mature plant of this strain looks like as i feel that i will be harvesting one within 10 days or so....that will be at week 7 out of 8.....breeder (Dutch Passion) speaks of a 7-8 week flowering time so i guess my first home grown bud will be at it's peak of quality and beauty.....oooooof.....written too much again....sorry guys&girls if i get you tired from reading my scripts.....it's just that i feel very proud and happy in an almost silly way....(oh boy i am going to harvest A LOT OF WEED) .....i am sure that all fellow growers and cultivators out there feel the same i do right now no matter if you've grown one plant or a thousand....plus i got HIGH again.....hehehhehe ....... take care everyone and thanx for any advice and help that was given to me throughout the entire process from the first day i got here........over&out.

Peace

PS.The process of waiting drives me almost crazy but patience is a virtue...one of the first things you learn here

hey there, wow, 5 footers!!! you said in a 2 gallon buckets on those two. what containers are the other ones in? do you change all the nutes at the same time all together? because i think that the two that are behind are what you said...root bound. AND because it is such a tree and only 2 gallons...wait, i'm assuming you are hydro and not dirt right? but with such a small buckets of 2 gallons, i would be changing that one over maybe 2 times a week as the nutes will be used up way for faster than the other ones. what method of growing are you using? don't want to write more until i know what i'm talking about LOL

[newgroweroldsmoker]

i am into soil the same buckets from seeds...the same top quality soil
oh....yeah, the first time ever fed them with anything was during the fourth week of veg)....
the same nuts from the beginning 7-3-6 only with 13-14 added to it since the beginning of flowering time (watering takes place everyday..whenever the surface is dry....feeding them full strength with 7-3-6&13-14 every time-2days)....
under 2x400 watt HPS lights....
if i take out the mistakes i did the strain has performed outrageously GOOD.......i think it likes nuts more and more though...
.....if only the photos were better...it's the light that is strong in there and even with sunglasses can't go close enough...i have to stand with the cam from almost 4-6 feet away.....damn i can't take closeups....

Peace
