Ok upgraded my res to 20Gallons thanks superstoner1 made a big difference plants have many less burn spots. Have a few new pictures of nodes for sexing now its been over 2 months and im startng to wonder what would make the plants not show any sex still. all four are different strains only one is femanized and the feminized seed is near half the size of the plant im taking pictures of. because of the size in general i wanna just keep the largest one even if it is a male to breed to my fem seed plant. the stem is huge and it has growen on ave 13-15 inchs foot per month. that a decent rate? bottem stems for the lower part of the plant are almost as tall as the top of plant itself. sounds like a male?2012-08-20 04.43.23[8].jpg2012-08-20 04.43.41[0].jpg2012-08-20 04.43.58[0].jpg
Should i just make clones of the fem plant and start flowering it? and save this plant for when i want seeds?

truely, do you want to mess with making seeds? stay with cloning. i get rid of any male, asap. i dont want the chance of a seed.
