Flowering Cycle Question

[portcityboi]

How long does it usually take after turning lights on to 12/12 before you know its female? Im pretty sure it is but no white hairs have emerged yet.

About 2 weeks or less.

Ive had my lights on 12/12 for 16 days now and no sign of sex yet...
Hopin for a girl!

It can also depend on the strain and how long you vegged. Pure sativas, haze, thai, etc can take a long time to show.

how would u know its a female if no wihte hairs??? is it a clone or a femished seed????
one of mine showed before 12/12, others showed at day 6, and one hasnt showed yet...

I'm starting to worry about mine too...

My last batch - Afganhi - I could sex within 3 days... I now have Northern Lights & 10 days on they have hardly begun to flower... They may be getting too cold when lights off (sorted that now) May also have a magnesium deficiency (will try to sort that tomorrow).

From a few day's to a coupla weeks . . . be patient. Males almost always show first, so you've probably a laidee.

I am working from a bag seed and she grew out to be sativa. I did 24 hour darkness before 12/12 and she showed me white hairs in 1 day. I had white hairs on both plants but one turned male so I cut him down. Hope this helps for future grows.

Back @ ya, TW . . . even this OLD fart finds his feet climbing the stairs to the bud-u-phorium half a dozen unnecessary times a day, like the month the bitches still need is gonna suddenly be over any second. I just stand there in a trance, staring at the forming buds! You'd think a guy'd get used to it, but it's still a thrill after 3-4 decades . . . and the waiting remains the same as it was first go 'round!
