Yeah I'm crossing fingers and toes and everything else, otherwise half the clones will just go in the bin, but I reckon they probably around the same time yours are in regards to turning so I'll post up a pic of the balls if one of them is 100% male which might help you tell. One has luckly already sprouted its first white pistil so that ones female :)

Yeah yesterday it got some extra light but it's back on 12/12 today so hopefully I didn't stress it too much .. I think it should show sex soon so we'll see (: thank u for the 2 cents feel free to give me as much advice as ya can!! Just started growing and now I have multiple seedlings lol so it should go smoother this time

You can grow plants 12/12 start to finish with no problem. Yield will be less but you can have crops in rotation ..... pop a set every 2-3 weeks ... and you will be starting / vegging / and flowering ALL at the same time.

Good luck.

If meds are for your own use , then growing this way ensures you have jars adding up.
I do this often to keep plenty on hand.

Then after a few runs I change to regular 18/6 grows. ( reg and auto ).
It is pretty easy to harvest plants on the regular .....

This is what you want to see some nice white pistils out of any of the pods, the second which I think might be male as well is what you don't want to see. but again no point in pulling them before knowing 100%

I'd say stick to running 16/8 if you don't need to run 12/12 because the plants will grow quicker and you can decide to grow them into monsters and then flower or flower pretty much when ever you want to. I'd rather 1-2 big plants every few months than lots of little ones. But again everyone's circumstances are different if you are 100% indoors or only have limited space, can you split your room into flowering and veg, how private you need to be with your plants if they aren't legal in your country/state or if your parents won't appreciated the lovely aromas coming out of your room lol

That's a good idea .. I only have one seed that sprouted thats pretty high in CBD so I was hoping that I could get the largest harvest from it but I'll try that with some of the others

Hey they are our kids so we need to love them no mater what their sexual preference haha. Just post your updates as you go and I reckon in a week or 2 you'll be able to tell. If you really want to boost the flowering stage I'd try get a cheap MH or HPS light, I know when I switch mine from T5 or LED once they get under that super bright light of a HPS they just burst with energy. And I'd assume you won't have any heat issues been in Alaska lol

Is that a recent pic ? I'm going to change and say that's a female specially if those are pics of the same areas in the first post. That Banana is just one of the little leaves that come out from each joint area. Happy days !
