u can not tell by the seed, unless its a feminized seed. it depends on the strain when the preflowers show up, ive seen some as earily as 3wks old. u can always clone your plants to determine sex, & sometimes sex doesnt show until u switch to `12/12

hey, sry to ask but i dont kno what u mean by small growing strain, does that mean a speciic kind of seeds? the seeds i already have, but all except one is from regs batch and the other one my friend gave it to me, so i dno what kind it is.... what would you suggest given these seeds? i dont live in NA so it be rlly hard for me to get seeds, if i decide to grow these seeds (lets say it doesnt quite stay low), are hter eany methods i cud use to limit their height growth? thanks.

Thanks a lot for the response!

I dont know why but something keeps making my water more alkaline. when measuring them from time to time I usually find 7-8 and today I even had a 8.5! dont know what causes this. Are you sure adding nutes lowers the PH?

yes the lowryder 2 & masterlow, dont grow very tall, maybe 18-24". to keep your plants small, u need to either start off w/ 12/12 from seed, or try useing the LST (low stress training), & topping & fimming, & veg for a short period, b/c once u switch to 12/12 plants can double or triple in size.

yes most nutes will lower the ph, & my water ph jumps around, from 7.0-7.4, cant tell u why.
