so today is something like day 12 of "flowering", and something like day 30 or 31 since it sprouted. Still no sign of sex at all. anyone know whats up with it? getting pretty big and filling out nicely, but no preflowers :( can it be getting too cold in the dark, because i have let it go without the space heater and it dropped down to 65F, a few times.

Merry Christmas to me she's a girl!!!! Getting really tall, probably about 12-14 inches from the soil and very thick and bushy. I was really only planning on harvesting between an eighth and a quarter but i can see myself getting a lot more with how she's growing.

day 19 of flowering. Preflowers and pistols popped out about 3 days ago. who knows how long it will take to finish flowering this. it vegged quick, but it seems to be so slow when it comes to flowering. took two weeks of flowering (5 weeks from seed) just to show sex. here are a couple shitty pictures of her from tonight.

walmart should have 6500k lights, it's where I got mine... From what I remember reading you can veg with 2700k, though I could be wrong, but during flower you have to use 2700k, not 6500k. I would also say for one grow you are going to want at least 100 watts for the first plant, 50 per plant after that.

She is actually a little bit bigger than she looks because the soil is about 5-6 inches below the top of the pot.

Thanks guys! She is coming along nice. three days ago i found two pistols now every top is covered in them!(13 tops on the one plant!!) So excited and ready for the bud porn!

One thing that is somewhat worrying me is that the smell isnt potent...yet? it smells strong, but just like plant not so much that potent maryJ smell... can that be a problem or would it be linked to poor genetics?

i don't cut anything off unless its dead! yes all leaves help plant to produce food for the buds...only while in veg is it ok to top, trim....if in flower can stress them and can effect yield.
