You can flip them now to 12/12. That's the way I do it anyway. As soon as they got a couple of nodes should be good to go. Final pot them of course. They are still rooting so. Could take 2-3 weeks to show sex when you flip early, males will probably first, then you're flowering. Of course you will minimize your yield but for personal its is ok.
Woah. I pop that seed and am usually minimal. I've tried the other stuff like, LST, bending and breaking the main stalk. All kinds of different stuff. Me, I'm more of a naturalist. If the genes are good, let it happen the way intended. The only reason I snap fan leaves is if they are giant humongous fan leaves and there are too many of them. Shaving the bud. Sometimes I let the older unhealthy stuff fall off. Sometimes I just snap it off.
depending on where you are in the world, the plant could begin flowering immediately, or not at all. It does seem you are outdoors, so knowing what sector of the world you are in to give diagnosis would help us. If you flower a seedling, it will begin to flower as soon as it is sexually mature, which could be between 3 weeks and 12 weeks from seed.
Minimal is one thing...doing nothing but dropping a seed in a Styrofoam cup of dirt and giving it some water is different. I understand that some folks do just that and are happy just too see some 'real' pot leafs...and that's cool. But using that method and hoping it will produce anything worth smoking...is like putting a card in an ATM machine and hoping to withdraw $1,000,000.when there is less than $100 available.

Gotta remember tho. I cultivate for personal only. I don't need to maximum yields. All of my energy is focused on giving the plant just what it needs and letting it do its thang. It works great bro.
I understand your point too tho. I just don't think you're considering all angles. A bit obsessed with your own way. Do you like bunnies?
Man. I'm really wanting a bunny. I might actually get one. Damn.
True, but if you're early in the season, and have time to plant in the ground, that styrofoam cup plant can end up being a 3-5 pound, ten foot tall monster. Kinda depends on the conditions and the effort involved...
Understood and agreed. However, and not to be insulting to the OP...if someone does not understand that a plant's flowering cannot be forced in an outdoor environment, that someone has done no reading or learning about cultivation of any kind. And is wasting time. Unless, like I said before all they want is to know they can grow a real plant that looks like a pot plant.
DUDE! You are neither a realist, a naturalist, nor even an expert on being a minimalist. Who needs a fucking million dollars? I only want one fucking pet rabbit. Damn son. What the fuck is wrong with you?
Yes it can. It's called LIGHT DEP.
If you plant some carrot seeds in a cup of dirt and hope for the best...you will have a starved dead rabbit on your hands. LOL!DUDE! You are neither a realist, a naturalist, nor even an expert on being a minimalist. Who needs a fucking million dollars? I only want one fucking pet rabbit. Damn son. What the fuck is wrong with you?
I'm so laid up in this quiet comfortable crib of mine smoking some of the best fucking weed available. When I finish this post, I'm gonna take like 5 or 6 tokes off this 1/8 J I rolled early this am and get FUCKED UP SON! And I been smoking on this shit a fucking year. And I'm a minimalists.
Now. Back to rabbits. Cause they bring us love.
I agree, however, all of us were uninitiated at one point. all people have to start somewhere... We have scores of threads for newbies, but every now and then, the impatient one pops up. I feel this is a good trait; being impatient can actually force someone to learn more in a shorter amount of time. All of us were newbs and ignorant at some point... Remember; our children are our future
And Chickums, cuz we're ''cheep'' in these parts...DUDE!
Now. Back to rabbits. Cause they bring us love.
I got some carrot seeds! I bought on sale at the end of season. I don't like carrots. But. You are so right. My bunny will need carrots. I will have to take care of it.
Again...understood and agreed. I had no malice or intention to show impatience or insult to the OP at all. When I decided to grow the only thing I had ever grown before was hair. I try to not give advice to others at all. Instead, I usually just try to point them in what I think is the right direction. But I always caveat even myself, because no one should take anyone's advice or opinion and just accept it as wrote. We were all newbies once and all needed some help. But there is no substitute for taking time to read and learn a bit first. As for me I will forever be a newbie in the fact that I can be and sometimes am wrong. I don't want to risk someone else's grow based on my own arrogance and no one else should either.I agree, however, all of us were uninitiated at one point. all people have to start somewhere...

sounds like shinfaggy...
That's a great attitude! I was just trying to point out that we were not all professionals at the start. Sometimes newbs are impatient and make threads because they really don't understand how forums work because they've never done it before. We've all been there, and in the new year I think that it's good we start trying to help as best as we can. We might actually have some decent members hang in there that are able to contribute to the experience for all of us. Eventually most of us will leave the forum either indefinitely or just out of boredom and because we have better things to do. Some of us come back, others don't, like bluebear and gardenknowm. Even Fdd comes back from time to time. But I digress...Again...understood and agreed. I had no malice or intention to show impatience or insult to the OP at all.

Peace be to you and yours.
Well said!...I myself was originally a member in 2011. I got into a very heated and nasty tolling war and ended up being 'asked' to leave. I came back and started actively posting again just recently. I love to learn, read, discuss, and share things about my favorite hobby. And if I can help someone along the way...that is the proverbial icing on the cake.That's a great attitude! I was just trying to point out that we were not all professionals at the start.

Let's try to be the better, and welcome the new blood. RIU needs some aspiring members!
