First CFL "Stealth" Grow

i just bent the plants some more and they already bent back towards the light. im gonna bend them some more probably tomorrow
 
ill post pics soon,

i tied back the bigger plant more and as it bent back, it broke the string!

strong plant!

so ill find some better way to tie them down.
 
bad news, one of my plants turned out to be a male, what should i do? should i wait to see if its a hermie?

the other larger plant is confirmed to be a girl after almost 2 weeks in flowering. saw tiny pistils in the making.

I would get rid of the male now,you dont want it to pollenate your lady.I dont have much use for them.

ditch the male, focus light on female.

unless you think you need to get some seeds then take a cutting of the male and still focus light on female, but put the cutting somewhere, males dont need much light. the cutting will stay small and once it roots start making sacs, but it can easily be kept small and still get some pollen. If you have a seperate area or cornerof a room or something.
 
alright. that being said, i just moved it to the corner. rearranged the female plant and the smaller plant. started LST again hopefully it works this time
 
Update to those supporting this thread:

1. Chopped down my male plant finally, hes taking up valuable room and i had no idea when he would just spunk on the female plants.

2. Bigger plant that is a female(i have named her Grace) is showing not too much vertical growth, great leaf growth, and great pistil production.(many pistils at the nodes)
FYI:She is only 6 weeks old! 4 weeks vegged and 2 weeks flowered.

3. Smaller plant that is now confirmed a female after only 3 weeks of vegging under 12/12 lights. I have named her Majesty. She shows a few long pistils under the main node which surprised me.

the rubbermaid setup almost got busted so i ghetto rigged a dresser to hold my 2 plants until i find something better.

same lights, no fans yet.(hopefully the plants dont die)

will post pics later.

both plants are showing beautiful pistils.
 
yeah people were wondering about the smell so i had to get rid of the rubbermaid setup into a more secure and less obvious place
 
burnt the living hell out of grace so a few leaves are brown and a few pistils shriveled up.(does anybody know if the plant can heal itself)

majesty is doing just fine. she has good pistil growth for vegging. i guess shes flowering now on her own.

hooked up 2 pc fans in the dresser so hopefully it will cool it down a bit as well as me raising the lights so they are about 7 inches away from the plants so there is a little risk of more burnage.

cant think of any other ways to cool down the temp of the dresser.

this is a believe the 3rd week flowering for grace and the 4th week of vegging for majesty.

thanks to everyone whos posted in this thread.
