Do you have any windows around down there that you can open? I also would recommend carbon filters to eliminate odors if possible, don't want to have those nosey neighbors getting suspicious of the smell lol. Just keep fresh air coming in every few hours.

What's up man, got a question. Is there a reason my plants wouldn't be showing their sex at 2 months and a week? I just topped them about a week ago and it seems as if waiting so long caused them to focus too much on fan leaves. So I'm guessing that could be why.. any help is much appreciated. Edit: I don't know the strain because the seeds came from seedy bud. Also, I'm growing with 5 gallon buckets DWC, T5 flourescent lights, GH Flora series, Cali Magic, and the room is air conditioned at 70-74 degrees. Recent picture of the plant as well.

This is the period of time where the sex of the plant should be appearing but genetics could be playing a role here. Time will eventually tell. Your plant looks a little stretched but strong. What lights are you using and how far away are you keeping them from your plants?

Just a question when did you change the light cycle?

Not sure think my light may need to be adjusted what do you think?

150w hps
An oscillating fan on the right tilted upwards to direct colder air towards bulb and light hood and upper canopy spots.
Air purifier with a carbon filter and built in optional ionizer on the left with a cardboard hood to redirect fresh air towards the top of the canopy and to the top of the soil to keep clean airflow in, ontop and under the plant. Light is 18-20 inches from the top canopy distance varies. Currently about to hit week 2 of flowering planted from seed Nov 28th

And this is her without the hps on lol

Working on that nitrogen problem too btw.

She's looking absolutely beautiful, great job. Nice setup. The distance seems pretty good. What you can do is measure the temperature of the very top of your plant by holding your hand just above your canopy for a minute or two and judge the temperature, you could use a thermometer as well. What do you got going there??

I'd bet cash that's a male. It's also very tiny for being 2 months old.. If it is a female she's going to be an ugly bitch.. it's still premature the nodes will be staggered .

She's a bc Kush mystery lol my buddy came back from Camborough River Bc, and brought back a shit load of seeds. Grew one a few months ago. It's great smells amazing through entire grow. Scents easily controllable if you don't fuck with her much. Did my last run with cfl
Doing this one pure hps (except for the 5 days from sprout it spent under a t8 but for the most part full hps start to finish and I have a banana from this strain stored away in my freezer. I ordered 10 Northern lights seeds from Nirvana and im gunna paint some pollen on one of then when I can. Try and get some feminized BCKxNL.

Any nutrients that have a higher potassium, phosphorus to nitrogen ratio content. There are many different nutrient products on market. Google (or Bing, which is my favorite over Google) search - Best nutrients during flowering stage - and start from there.

You never want P to be higher than N in container(peat/coco) grows. And during flower you just want the K to be slightly higher than N. A 3-1-2

You never want P to be higher than N in container(peat/coco) grows. And during flower you just want the K to be slightly higher than N. A 3-1-2 ratio for veg. And a 2-1-3 ratio for flower is a great baseline to shoot for. Then adjust from there according to a particular strains needs.
