Hi people, i will be going straight to the question/problem... its my first time growing marihuana and i notice that i dont know anything about it but the basics, i germinated about 10 plants from random seeds that i collected over the years from the "good batches" i got but because im an idiot i started all wrong first i germinated them and just had them by the window and about about 5 into solo cups and 5 of them all in a "big" 3 gallon pot( my idea was to see which ones where male and females and then discard the males and only keep the females), of course, they got too long because they where not getting the right amount of light so i i finally bought a couple of grow lights and put them in an 14-15H of light to 10 to 9 of dark (sansi 70w daylight led grow light and later i added a GL-100 Ueiua 600W full spectrum light both led)but for the first 3 weeks and a half they where only getting the sun by the window, so because they where too long i pull them and dig them deeper into the soil so they stoped falling over, i always try to keep my grow room( my bathroom lol) cool with temps arround 75F to a max of 81 or 82F when the lights where on and a steady 75F ish at night then i accept that i transplanted them at least 2 times before its time into the wrong containers ( 5 started in solo cups and 5 i the 3 gallon pot then i transplant the ones in the solo cups before time into a 1 liter containers theinto a gallon and some of the 3 gallon pot into another 3 gallon pot containers both times before time) so i guess that was the cause that they never grew i planted them about almost 2 months and a half ago and by the month and a half they where about 4 in) also during that time i ran into problems of over water them, i notice that some of the first leaves started to turn yellow and die and the top leaves the tips started to do the same i fixed my over water problem but they remain small then within that time my freaking cat enter the room and ate 2 of them and bit almost all of them then 2 weeks later he managed to get in again and bit them again!!! and i was ready to throw the towel i mean they where massacred but 5 sort of survided, in that time too i decided that i was spending to much electricity to grow them and they where not growing, i mean they kept trowing new leaves on top but the size never improved and i t was going soooo slow plus ALL of them never gave me fan leaves with more than 3 leaves all of them had only 3 leaves never more than that, so the 5 that survived i decided to put outside and grow them in my roof since what i read about it a 3 leave fan in never good (sometimes but normaly is not good) but i notice that out of the 5 plants 2 where dieing they never streched their arms and the leaves where all curly and turning yellow (tips and bottom leaves) so i pull those then another one of the 3 was doing the same so i pull that one too BUT miraculously 2 of them(they are in the same 5 gallon pot unfortunely) started to thrive outside, the fanleaves got bigger and started to grow more and more i was so happy and i sayed if at least one is female ill be very happy so i left them outside for about a week and a half watering them every 3 days and 3 days ago i notice 5 tip fan leaves in both of them for the first time!! which told me that they liked being outside (the weather here is about 75F to 78F during the day and it drops around 66-68F at night) and around the same day i notice the first 5 point leaves forming I also notice that BOTH are females!!! i started to see white hairs my concern now is that because i had them on 14h to 10h cycles and then put them outside i think i see a small bud forming(it might just be the plant growing i just don't know) at the very top and it got me worried that when i put them outside the switched to flowering stage and they are way too small to be in flowering (about 7 to 8 in) so what i am doing now is putting them inside about 7 pm and put them under the light for about 3 to 4 more hours to make the 14 hr cycle i just want to know from people that have grown before are this ladies already in the flowering stage? or its just the plant growing normally because i can see a little "ball" of leaves that i think is a bud a the very top its just that it never did that before you can see better in the picture 1598573935712.jpg what im referring on top of them the "bud"
