First time CFL grow. How do they look???

looking great man!

thanks not to bad for some ole bag seed eh?

I have a quick question. I plan on putting the plants on 12/12 tomorrow and was unsure about the best way to do it. Should I keep the wake up time the same as it is now. Lights on now is 6 am and lights off is 12am. Could I switch lights on to 12pm and let them turn off at 12am or should I keep lights on at 6am and turn lights off at 6pm. Does it matter?

i would go 6am to 6 pm...... they are used to starting at 6 why change it?.....and just like fall they get less light later in the day .....but that how i got mine

thanks kinda what i thought i am just worried about possible light getting to them after 6 pm

Well it has been 32 long days of veg and i am now starting flower on the 12/12 cycle.. Check the ladies (hopefully) out... What say you????

Looking great, like some fat-leafed indica dominant goddess'(keep my fingers crossed for ya) Good show, sir!

thanks! i sure hope after all this waiting at least one turns out to be a female

They look pretty dank for some bag seed man. Respect bro.

Looking very good and healthy!! Keep it up I'll stay tuned! *pulling up a chair*

Same thing I thought. Couldn't believe how well they are growing. I will add that it was some cronic bud that I got an oz of and it only had 4 seeds in it. All 4 are currently growing i just have 2 though and the other 2 are at about the same pace as mine. I am thinking that most likely there was a hermie in an indoor mass production or a male pulled late. Only 4 seeds in 28 grams is a little weird but I just hope mine turn to females. I will note that I saw earlier one little hair coming from the node on one of the lowest branches it almost looks like it hasnt broke the "skin". anything to this or am i just crazy??? lol thanks for everybodys input

Just read your whole thread awesome job subbed +rep my friend

Thanks and overall up to this point after reading about everyones grows I am pleased with where I am at on my first grow. RIU is awesome and has helped me so much. Hopefully I can eventually help and provide as much support as everyone has given me.

This is looking great! Fingers crossed for a girl

Well it has now been 41 days total and 9 days in flowering. Both plants are showing signs of sex and it appears to be the 50/50 ratio of male to female. I am not 100% sure yet but i think that is the case. I will post some more pics in a few days when I am 100% sure but they have really been getting their stretch on. Both are already about 10" taller than when they started flowering.

Hard to tell from the pics. Are you keeping the males?

No I am definitely not keeping the males unless they are both hermies. I know the pictures are not that great but have no micro mode on my cheap camera.

Is it possible that the pistills could come from a small ball similar to pollen sacks? I read about this somewhere and was unsure of its validity.

alternating nodes is a good sign. just keep waiting and watching. looks great though,

if both are female i will need at least three more lights. I can already tell the branches are not getting enough light. should i turn the florescent tube vertical instead of horizontal?
