8 days of 12-12, back to 18-6. Safe?

[itza419]

FROM SEED: My 2 mostly indicas seeds went into 12-12 at 37 days old from sprout. They sexed out 1 male one female. all the while i'd like to continue vegging. Currently in lights out on day 8 of 12-12. I only have 1 hair so small can only be seen with jewlers loupe. Resembles pre-flower. AM i SAFE to continue vegging?

Yea you can revert them back to veg but expect them to be a little stressed

I was thinking along the lines that the plant was just reaching it natural sexual gender reveal anyway. I think I am safe to veg. Lights on in 30..Thank you GSH.

Btw. i always save the male. No sense in wasting good genetics.

 

[Grow So High]

you plan on breeding with the male? Seems like you got it figured out man I hope they turn out amazing for you!

I tend to keep males if the genetics are worth it maybe not breeding now but later down the line tends to help rather then wish you didnt let those genetics waste

I think that 99% of growers have no intention of breeding so the males can be culled. No point in wasting space and resources on them. If you wanna keep the genetics around just freeze some pollen and call it a day.

Next time just keep the plants in veg, take some cuttings and flower them to determine sex OR even better test them for sex using the Phylos Bioscience mail in method.

You can just put the cuttings in 12/12 while they attempt to root, this will save you some time since you just wanna know the sex. Just don't mix up the plant # labels lol.

When reverting the plants to veg they will continue to try and flower for a while, then come back to veg, it's not pretty and wastes a LOT of time.

HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE 5 WEEKS ..SHE'LL GO OUTSIDE TO THE GIANT LIGHT BULB...AND LIGHT HOURS WILL BE OVER 14 HOURS BY THEN

 

[itza419]

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE ROUGHLY..

 

[Grow So High]

I personally haven’t done it but since no one answered it.... seems like they give you your results the same day they receive your sample in most companies. Your best bet would be to try to expedite the shipping process somehow to speed it up

 

[Stizzy's Sticky]

I've done it before, it's possible but you will add three weeks back to your veg because the stress is real fam

 

[itza419]

Ok ok..plant on the left has been on 24hr light since tuesday after tiny tiny hairs showed after day 7-8 of 12 12. Plant on right showed hairs today(evidently not the Male I was hoping for). So it's back to veg also.. Any good way to clone these to get 6 plants ready for May 20th?

 

[itza419]

UPDATE: Is it normal for the flowering cycle to run this long even after 24hr. lights for 2 weeks. When will I see re veg.

 

[itza419]

Please ignore the tip burn...I got this.
