Hey,
So ive had 3 little plants around for about going on 3 months (i havent been keeping track) ive removed 2 of them as they turned out male sadly. but my last hope is the one thats still as it looks like to me vegging. the thing is ive had them on 12/12 for i would say atleast a month and the males which i started growing at the same time have been removed along time ago so why hasn't my hopeful to be girl flowered? i thought males grew faster but females flower earlier. from what i can see with the naked eye there aren't even preflowers the beginning of this week i lst'ed do to the lack of space and transplanted into a slightly larger pot. but i feel like that wouldnt change the fact because it still has been under 12/12 for a few weeks prior and has reached mature age it looks like based on how big and how many nodes my males had. she is going on the 5th node the guys popped at around 3! so what could be going on? is this a sign of a female or just still immature plant (all seeds came from the same bag so idk why they would mature at different times) i would greatly appreciate advice! thanks!:leaf:

Sounds like your plant is stressed to me, or maybe a light leak during your dark period ? Pics could help people with a better assessment of your plant.

Not enough info.
Lighting? soil or hydro? Nutes? temps? All kinds of things could be responsible.

lighting is 2 23 watt 5500k cfls and 2 20 watt 6500k in miracle gro soil the temps are about 80 in the day and 70 at night and not nute regiment due to the miracle gro soil.

Its not the spectrum, its the amount of light available to the plant. You don't even have 100 watt total, thats way too little.

Sorry dude but no correct light spectrum then growth is minimal if at all. Of course you need wattage but ya also need the right colour.

I didn't mean to denigrate the importance of having the correct spectrum of lighting, of coarse that is important. But if you have insufficiant wattage you might as well be using candles.
