Oh no I understand. I have just temporarily switched to flower lighting (12/12)
Mainlining is a veg technique. So if you wait til they show gender the. Switch the lights back so you have time to stress train them for a month or more....

the other guy is right about the second node but not regarding timing. You are supposed to cut back to the second node to start your mainline. This can be done whenever in veg. If done in flower you will just fuck your shitup.
Oh no i understand. Ive only switched to 12/12 so they show their sex. Not to flower. I plan to switch back to veg lighting right after. I just want to weed out the males early on so i can save space/ nutes/ soil and time. Ya know?

Oh yeah, then doesn’t matter at all. You can start mainlining whenever you want. Just generally more depressing to cut off 10 nodes than 4. Lol

I agree. Im thinking about just going for it anyways. Like before they show their sex. Can they even show me their sex at like 30 days from seed? I know with clones its easier becauae the plant is more mature or something

With clones you generally know who the parent was. ;) The sex will be whatever the donor was.

At 30 days you should be seeing pre-sex indicators.

I have them on a 12/12 light schedule and have since day 24 from seed. Im looking for balls or pistils. Is that possible this early from seed? Today would be day 30 from seeds poking through soil. And the 6th day since I switched lights to 12/12

I've been able to sex at that stage on 18/6, so you should know by now.

You can also have them lab tested for sex once the first set of main leaves appear, but that is another $10/plant or so.

In what aspect? Just curious. Literally just want to see whether theyre male or female. Not trying to flower. Ive even read articles on something called monster cropping which refers to re vegging plants that are half way through flowering. Also people take clones off plants that are flowering and re veg them. I have no personal experience with doing it but if it does so indeed cause them to be all sorts of fucked up. I guess thats my mistake and learning experience but you havent really given anything substantial to go off as to why I shouldnt keep doing what I am. Thank you for the advice though. I'll definitely keep it in mind and try to keep a watchful eye

That's such a good feeling when your room starts peicing together
