Ok so I have a two room setup:
Veg room is on a 16/8 light cycle w/ grow floursecents kept a few inches away from the tops. I use general hydro flora micro and grow as needed via drip.

I have a 3.5ft fat bushy ww plant and I am unaware of plants showing sex signs before any flowering stage is introduced. Two days ago I noticed seed clusters forming around the intersections of the main stalk. So needless to say my mother plant is only gonna be the mother a few seeds for me to start over.

I have also signed up with the nirvana seed catalog. Considered buying a few seeds since I only had the one to start. Unless anyone has any ideas. Thanks for the newb help. I can get a pic up if needed to.

well it was to be the start of a permanent rotation. This one was to be the main "mother" and I have a cloning machine and a hot house with ten clones in it. I just finished building my flower room and was gonna move a clone into it to determine sex and that day I noticed a seed pouch. This plant was not to be flowered. And 16 8... Just a preference. I've looked from reading that 18/6 seems ideal? And why can 14/10 not flower a plant then, as long as you never starve the plant of its usuall light or cut back the light cycle?

By the way my flower room consists of an e&f style setup with a 400w hps. A 465cfm (sufficient! trust me) hydrofarm fan will exhaust the room. Will be a 12/12 with 3 waterings a day at 15min.

24/0 and 18/6 for veg
12/12 for flower.


simple....

why stress them?
Thank you. I guess thats what forums are for! I'm new obviously to this one but theres seems to be ALOT of info here and i'll be around. I like the journal section and can't wait to get one going.

Now is it worth seeding this male for the seeds? I have nothing else to work from if not.

no because you can use clones from a female, dont bother messing up a female plant, just pull clones from it

Well a female is what I need. But now all I have is a male plant. Where should I get clones in phoenix? I'm thinking of ordering some seeds from nirvana shop. But I figured i'd at least grow a few seeds off this plant since i'd like to have a white widow strain as well as whatever I get for now.
