Changing Light Cycles

[Just Let Me Be Faded]

Hello all! I have started some beans about, well exactly.. 1 month ago! I'm really interested to know which of my plants are female. My question: Can I change the light cycle to 12/12 in order to determine sex? Then switch back to continue vegging? If someone could inform me I would be very grateful

yes you can.

that's why i like feminized seeds. i don't have the space or time usually to figure out if they are boys or girls.

I usually use fem beans as well but I decided to try something a bit different for an experiment! Do you know if it will stress the plants?

no. you just do it long enough to sex and then flip back. they will kinda be in limbo for a few days but they'll get back to veg soon enough.

i have a bunch of regular seeds that i got as freebies. guess one day i'll have to run em and sex em.

You can also just clip off a small lower branch, place it in a cup of water and flower that, much less stressful on the plant as a whole

That's sounds like a better idea. Won't lose veg time. I've also heard of ppl covering a lower part with a bag or something.
