Need advice from the pro's. First grow, going well, not too sure about flowering.

Hey everyone, long time lurker, first time poster. You will be seeing a lot of me now that I am growing. I don't think I will stop either, it gives me a great sense of satisfaction. I have only been vegging so far as well. Can't wait for the buds!

I am in Ontario, Canada, just north of Toronto. Outdoor grow, my girls all came from bagseed. It was some type of Kush. Purple Kush I believe. I have amassed a ton of information and people say you cannot trust bagseed plants to flower properly. I have seen most people be advised to force flower their bagseed plants and they cannot be sure if the seeds were from a late flowering parent. Makes sense.

I *THINK* they are already in the flowering stage. I am not sure though. I will be taking a picture of them tomorrow. I have 16 females about 3' tall or more. Most of them have white pistils. I think. LOL, not entirely sure.

I will take pictures of them and we can go from there. I really need some advice though, I have done so well so far, put tons of effort into them (especially since this was a dry summer), and I just want to reap the rewards (don't we all).

Thanks in advance.

**Pics are up**. ImageShack Album <-- I hope this is ok, I know some people don't like ImageShack.

First pic is what I use to transport water, they're generally for camping. Just thought I'd share if anyone might find it useful.

Remember this is my first grow, ANY advice from someone who has done this before would be greatly appreciated. Other than the fact that I put them too close together, which is obvious. You can see this in the pictures. :)

Uploading now. The camera I used wasn't great, can't get the focus to work well all the time.

I have 4 nice pics though.

there not quite flowering yet, there in preflower and look female, give it a week or 2 theyll be in full flower, u should be able to tell, there will be clusters of pistils coming outta the corners of the plant, and it will look like small buds forming, and dnt let ppl knock bagseed, the only problem w/ it is the uncertainty of when itll finish thats it, it sure beats 50-100 bucks for 10 seeds

make sure u chech them all very well to make sure u have no males, have u found ne males yet
Thanks for the replies my friend. I am quite sure I have no males, all 16 of them look like this, cannot see any balls forming and most of them have white pistils forming in the corners as you say. I just couldn't get a great picture of it.

I have 3 other ones separated from my main 16 and they look exactly like this too. I can tell if they are males or not, that doesn't seem too hard. It seems the flowers of the female are raised a slight bit with a stem protruding from the main stem, while the flowers of a male seem to grow right out of the main stem. Just one of the ways that helped me identify them.
