Howdy Student,

I would just like to point out-that one can force a plant to flower,it needs to be on it's third or fourth set of leaves,if you want to sex them faster that way,you can..however,the drawbacks are stress,increased veg time,etc. After being forced to show their sex,the plants can be reverted back to veg. Usually,only experienced growers do it that way,because they're either commercial growers or breeders-that either need to know,or have the patience to add the increase in time to veg. Then there are those experienced growers who sex their plants as soon as possible,because they don't want to waste a single iota of their expensive ferts,time,space,energy or electrical costs on male plants. Of course,growing from female clones,eliminates the problem of determining sex.

My goal,is to grow a good mother plant or two,and grow the clones out on a 6 week veg-to-flower cycle,so I can have somewhat of a perpetual harvest..yay ! lol However,I first need to grow out some good parents for a seed crop..then go from there.

Have a good one...Torog
