yeah we just have them sitting in direct sunlight, i'd say they get close to 12/12 but its only natural light, anything you guys would recommend doing?

well if you wanna sex them early you should take a cutting of your plant, (i would wait til its on at least its4-5th node) then place the cutting inside on a 12/12 lighting schedule, within 8-10 days your plant should show its sex, if it has little balls then its a male and discard the cutting and the plant, if white hairs(pistils) show then congrats you have yourself a female. sexing your plant this way you don't disturb your plants vegging time. hope this helps ya a little!

thanks man, it does i just need you to explain this whole cutting concept. the 4-5 node you mean 5th part up the stock where its branching right? and when i do cut it how do i take care of it to ensure the cutting and the rest of the plant survives. i've waited a couple of months with this plant and i just want to make sure what i do dosn't kill it :joint:

The plant will still show sex signs without roots? Figure at least 7-10 days to get a root mass of sorts. If this works that's cool, just never tried ti.

You take the clone it roots in 3-4 days then about 4 days in 12/12 will show signs of sex.If you gonna try to grow this plant its gonna need more light and make sure you buy good nutes to feed it and watch the soil ph
