Howdy dobiepaq,

Welcome ! Glad to have someone from my generation,join us here ,I'm almost 47 myself:stoned:

That is mighty purty country down there,but too humid for me ! lol I live up here in north central Texas,west of Fort Worth,south of Possum Kingdom lake.

As for them plants that ya got,I reckon that keeping the bugs off of em,is yer main priority right now,they won't be ready for harvest,till about the first frost. To tell the males from females,look for growths that look like a cluster of grapes,where the flowers normally are,take down the ones ya find like that,they are the males. Keep an eye on em and water them if they look too droopy or the leaves git yellow,in which case,you should feed them with some fertilizer,like Shultz 20-20-20,and when the flowers start showing up,switch to a fert,formulated for flowering,till about 10 days before they are finished,then just give em plain water to flush out the ferts. It would be best to use water with a ph of 6.8 or so,you can git some ph test strips for pools,at wally-world and they will give ya an idea of the ph,total solids and chlorine. Tap water should sit out for a day,for the chlorine to evaporate,as ya want to keep them levels low too.

If have anymore questions,just give me a holler :thumbsup:

Have a good one ! :stoned:
