hey, those are looking real good, and i would say indica by the short fat leaves. most sativa have long narrow leaves, and remember the the pics i posted for you, that will tell ya if their male or female. the first litte hairs you see are stipules, both male and females have those and they are on the side of the plant, not on the nodes where the branches come out, thats where you'll find the calyx/pistals or the male nut sacks.

yes, but should be like opposite of the node/branches.

each node is a set of leaves, now would be a great time to try and top a couple of them, its real easy to do, heres how. this will give you 4 or more main colas.
#1 Locate the very top of the new growth. #2 With a clean, sterilized scissors, Fold the fan leafs over and cut approximately 80% of the new growth off the plant. #3 This is what it should look like after the cut has been made. #4 View of the Cut section after 2 days growth, showing the 4 new growth shoots (branches).

WOW this is so interesting... With all the reading I have done I have not come across this. I thought topping was just bending the branch to get a new cola but I guess that is actually just lsting
I finally get what topping is... Thank you.

oh, no problem. now that was funny, you think that dude has a problem with the f word, LMAO. and like he fuckin said, you can keep doing it over and over, LoL. bending the branches over or LST, low stress training is used to expose the lower buds on the plant to get more light to make them bigger.

I had read somewhere that a little Big Bud earlier on had success on quickening the pace of the plant sexing and budding.. I could be wrong, but have seen others write that. I was actually thinking the same thing but said "ah to the hell with it." Hopefully, it does what they say, but I never want to over nute. AN big bud has a lot of phosphate and and even more potash. I will look for signs I suppose. Repotting! I was thinking about doing it when I found out which ones where females. So I can judge how large the pots I want to be... but if I 'was' to leave one in a cup it would still grow and give me buddha right?
Dude but still it is a lovely cola... I was actually thinking about just lollipopping my females. Maybe lollipop them with 2-3 colas or something

yeah thanks man, heres a pic of new bean, my first grow, i think i did lollipoppin and didnt know it when i cut all the fan leaves off, this one was a wild bitch, LoL. the first 2 pics are 1 day apart when i cut all the fan leaves off at day 61, the last, at day 88 is looking straight down at her, had her all tied down and she looked like a pinwheel, LoL.

it was just over 2 oz's dry, and just over 140 grams wet. there were 5 main colas, would have been 6, but i broke 1 off when i first tied them down early in the grow, dont make that mistake, LoL.
