my plants won't budd!

Hey, ive just detected white hairs growing from my main tip & all my branch tips!

Its a Girl! or a Hermie...

The nubs from my pictures located at the connecting nodes are still a complete mystery to me, they have not done anything so far :what:

for safety sake pluck them off...and watch for any others that may develop...glad to hear this...i am as surprised as you

but seriously pluck those little buggers off that you showed in the picture and watch for others...then she will not pollinate herself and go into seed production killing the yield! :thumbsup:

Thanks for the quick Reply! I just logged off & decided to check this thread one last time.

Q: If I pluck these nubs will new growth come back in its place?

Also im as Shocked as you, last night I saw to little hairs on one of my branches... since I was totally convinced I had a male I took it as weird new growth. But then tonight boom! it was all over the plant, every tip, except un-matured branches.

Ill take some pics when the hairs get a bit more noticeable

Since you've been through this before, are the hairs a sign of preflower or is this the real flowering stage deal?

you'll just have to watxh those nubs and if they grow out a little like a little football on the end of short stem keep plucking them off...that is the plant trying to make a male flower....keep your eye out for em and don't let any flower or you will be getting seeds!

yes the pistils are the plant showing its female side so you can start flowering it ...12 hours dark and 12 hours of light :thumbsup:

Sweet! Ill do that, thanks again for all the Help stra8outtaWeed! :jointsmile:

But im already 2 weeks into 12/12, im just curious if this means the plant has begun the stage or is it still preflowering. What is the real hint that its truly in the flowering stage?

[stra8outtaWeed]

you're in it...so keep it goin and good luck...i hope she turns out some sticky greasy dank for ya! :jointsmile:

are you using in flower nutes? Botanicare makes a one part soil formula called Pure Blend Pro that is mostly organic or dyna-grow is the synthetic one parter that will work also...keep it simple and continue to learn...you have the interest so you will do fine!:thumbsup:

LOL not used to this forum yet, I didnt notice you replied until I saw page 1-2.

Thanks! I hope so too, but im not holding to much seeing as this is my first. I expected problems from the start. Though so far just a lot of questions rather then problems. Im sure when it comes to harvesting things will get bumpy. All the info I have read on it sounds complicated.

Im using a cheap & I mean cheap ($5) Bloom Fertilizer 15-30-15 since I started my 12/12, before that I was using a 30-15-15. I don't remember the name but it has Micro Nutrients as well, its identical to Miracle Grows Bloom Fert just cheaper

Im on a tight budget right now, hence the reason I started to Grow my own & using only Fluorescents.

Usually when I get into something I take it pretty serious, ive spent countless days tending to my little baby & learning tons on the way.

Hopefully one day I can start an SOG, these LED growers are catching more & more of my attention lately. I might look into those in the future, I was reading if you use a Red/Blue/Orange Array Setup your plant looks pitch black, meaning its absorbing nearly all the light!

Ive gotta get to bed, but I do appreciate all your help! Hope to see you around stra8outtaWeed.



Keep it Green! :jointsmile:
