yea bro not a problem. Like I said before people helped me get started and I wanna try to pass on the advice its all part of this great community. Look into some CFL grows to get a better idea of how many lights and of what spectrum as well. Ask questions in those threads and invite people to check out ur grow thats what i do. It really helps! theloadeddragon, greenfirekilla, steadmanclan, and blackroses all help out a ton!
will be sure to do in the future and now. thanks again. its so nice having a forum with so many helpful members. its sorta like that movie Paying It Forward. everyone helps out a little bit and in return they get helped out.

so heres my plant after not even a full day of nutes and being on the 12-12 cycle for one day. i cant believe how much it shot up and how big the leaves got.

i was thinking about maybe trying to top the plant in order to get a higher yield. any ideas on this? does that take a long time? or did i wait too long to do this?(keeping in mind i plan to harvest by dec 14th)

some of the pics have a good deal of mixed lighting on them, and thats why they look different colors, in case anyone was wondering.

hmmm Eagles I am not sure if topping would be productive for you. Since veg was so short plant might just put time into growing the two different tops and not producing the flowers. I am not sure though just a thought. I would say dont do it. But hey I dont know much more than you do......Like I always say look in to and see what you find out.......

yeah i dont think im going to try to do it this grow. i thought, well since my plant was going to be so small i might as well try it, but that would prob just take a lot more time, which i dont have. next grow though. thanks for the feedback.

great news!

im almost 100% positive my one plant is a female. its got those two thin hairs that stick straight up at most of the upper nodes. the plant is looking very healthy and bushy, so i cant wait to hear what yall have to think.

these arent the newest pics, but i dont have time right now to upload the others. i will soon though.

I cant see the little white hairs you talk about do they look like this???
i guess hairs isnt the correct term to use. i was referring to the thin tiny leaf looking things that point straight up from each side of the node in the pics. i could be wrong about all of this haha.

so my plant is a male. im waiting it out to see if it is a hermie at all, but my question is how long do i have to wait until i can just grind it up and make hash?

eagles I just think the plant has not showed sex yet give it a few more days..... On my pic post you see where those two white hairs come out from if your plant is a boy you will see a nub on both sides....
Hope that makes sense.

i think it has shown sex now unfortunately. ill post pics tomorrow. there are little pollen sacs where it looks like seeds are forming on a couple of the nodes. im going to wait it out a little longer but i think its almost a definite male :sad:

so sorry to hear.............

the good thing is you can always try again
:clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:
its all good. this first grow is really just supposed to be a learning experience, but it wouldve been nice to at least get a little out of all the money and time.

how long do you think i should let it grow, until i can make hash out of the leaves? could i grind it up now?
