Ok so i put my plant into flower first week of april.
On the 2nd week i saw signs of a female :) so wouldnt that mean its only been 2 weeks in flower from what i heard?
Dont know if its true or not?

This is my first plant indoor i have 6cfls in thier and i am feeding tiger bloom and big bloom
tiger bloom 2-8-4 and big bloom 0.01-0.3-0.7 i actually just started using big bloom 2 days ago?
How is my plant looking. Is it in the right steps and how much yield what i get from this plant estimating?

I also have alot alot of yellow tips? Would it be the nutes? Or over watering i give it half a gallon each day?
Well let me know and why did it bush up i see alot more leaves than pistils? And its not looking dence how long untill it will really start nugging?

Please help me i know i answered most questions but just back it up so i can make sure my plant is in the right directions?
Thanks everyone and i wish all your plants come out big and good :)

U usually count flower when u first see pistils....
1/2 gallon a day seems overkill... u want the medium to start to dry before watering.

U might want to double up those CFLs... my first time i used 14 and felt i could have used more.

so about 12 23w cfls will do or am i better off using 6 23w cfls and 1 hps light bulb hps(how many watts would your recommend)?
its in a pretty big bucket with 6 drainage holes. so the top soil gets dry pretty fast?

dayumm man those look nice see thats how i was expecting mine to look by this time what type of light system are you using?
i also topped mine..yours looks like it has more pistils than leafs mine is the opposite(WHY) LOL LOOKING good though bro keep it up
The seeds popped on Feb.1 and I veg'd them under 600w MH til April 9th. Yeah Im just trying to keep them healthy by not over feeding. I did that quite often the last few years. What and how much did you feed while vegging? It looks like there may be too much N in the soil. Would definitely explain the higher leaf to calyx ratio. That or genetics but more likely too much nitrogen. The leaves look dark in the 1st picture.

what are you using for flowering? what do you recommond?
yea probably i didnt know i was suppose to mix the tiger bloom with the big bloom i was going all out on the tigerbloom i just started the big bloom and red the instructions but idk if i should flush yet> vegging i didnt feed it anything maybe for the last 2 weeks of vegging i fed tigerbloom thats when it shot up 1ft.
im getting sad now man i wanted a good yield but fuck it oh well its only my first grow my next will be better i know for a fact i need a better light system?

lift your pot when its light water when its heavy don't water. Imo you don't have enough nitrogen. My base nutrient is connoisseur 5.9-5-9.6. hope this helps good luck.

Yeah bro dont sweat it. Its your first of many grows. Dont give up. Im using fox farm trio(Grow BIG, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom). I would definitely go with a better lighting system with an inline fan. When it comes to the fan I'd get at least a 6" Inline just in case you want to add a second light one day. The 4" would be a little weak for more than one HID system. Keep it up and post yield when it comes time.
