when it's summer their is the longest day of sun light that's the day it will start showing sex that happend a while ago.
solstice does not force plants to show sex...it actually has more to do with a specific strain's genes and light cycles diminishing after the solstice...but mostly it's embeded in a plants genes when it will show sex

the nutes you are using will be fine for another two weeks or so....the plants look healthy as can be...no worries...btw...I use big bloom too...and I find that every now and again I need to add nitrogen to the mix since big bloom has low N. just a heads up. I am thinking about going with tiger bloom this round because of this...we shall see
so when it needs N what should i do??what did you do? did you buy nutes that contain only N or used the ones in veg.?

i wouldn't force it in to flowering to show its sex. Just take a cutting at a 45 degree angle and clone it. then grow that clone for a while and force that in to flowering and that will tell you for sure what sex it is. if you want to do it this way i can help you just let me know.

yeah i wish i could do that..but since they are outdoors isnt harder to grow a clone outdoors??
plus since im in a budget, cant really afford right not to buy that root hormone..and even tough i've seen when they put the clones on roockwool for faster grow, do you think that if i take the clone and put it on soil it will grow??outdoors afcourse
