I have an indica plant that i have been growing for about 8 weeks, maybe more. I put it into flower on March 7th. Since then it has shot up and grown fast as hell:weed:









Are those little things female pistols or just a small leaf?

And how is it looking?

No not yet. Im nervous as crap. If its a female i would be so happy, but if its a male that would be a bummer.

Now would it be okay that i not even use nutrients or food at all, i havent used any yet anyway?

and how much could this plant produce, it is getting pretty big?

that 5 gallon bucket should give the roots more than enough room to grow huge . you can start giving it veg. nutes .

how much would you say it grew in the past 3days?? i just started 12/12 lighting on my 7 week old plant and went on vacation. i raised the lights about 8 inches thinking this would be a good height to attain some growth but not too low that the plants would touch em.

My Cfl grow was put into flower on day 34 of veg on the &th of March too.

I don't think sex shows until about 10-14 days.

I'll keep an eye on yours to see when you show sex, and compare to when mine does!

OK I know for a fact my plant is female, i saw several thread like white hairs coming out the corners of the branches/nodes etc...

My question is, is it okay to cut some of the branches in order to give the bud sites more light penetration?

I cut off the bottom branches on mine. Then tied back others to let the light get in. Both my plants now show female signs and are growing like mad the past few days of flowering. I'm on day 10 or 11 now.

I'm using about 200w mixed 2700k and 6500k. I'm growing hydro so I have to use nutrients. And I'd say you'll need flowering nutes too. But I've never done a soil grow so I'm no pro.
