hi,

wanted some peoples opinions on my bunch of ladies (hopefully) by this Monday (6th october) they would have been vegging for 3 weeks.

i was going to go for 4, just wanted to see if i should do it for longer or maybe even shorter.

some of them are starting to show signs of sex and nodes are starting to alternate slightly.

They have about 6 feet in which to grow (vertically) my tallest plant currently is about 14-16 inches.

im using a 600w HPS lamp. ran into some trouble a few days ago with ph i think. but it seems to be sorted now.

here's some pictures:





thanks :blsmoke:

i think that when they start to preflower it means that they are technically mature, and are ready to flower. but it is up to you.....my lady that is almost ready to harvest was pushed into flowering after 1.5 weeks in vegg. now i know that my yield is going to be smaller than if i let her vegg longer but that is the price i pay for having a harvest after only growing her for 10 weeks!

thanks, im undecided as when to do it. i want a decent harvest but want them to be finishing up by early December, maybe a little sooner.

If they are showing sex they are mature enough for bud, Do you know how long this strian take's to flower? If you do and you have to be done by early december you should probally think about do that. And generaly they will stretch 1/3 in budding so you have to take that into thought also
Good Luck

right,

i'm seriously considering forcing them to flower now, the tallest is around 18 inches!

not many are showing sex neither are their nodes alternating much.

what will happen when i start to flower? will they sort them selves out? will flowering take longer?

thanks

Yeah if they are that tall and you got limited height go for it
they will show there sex in 7-10 days then sort the male's from female's
no flowering should not take longer just what the strain normaly takes to flower
