Sexing

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by Yoda, Aug 25, 2009.

  1. When a plant reaches maturity the nodes are offest. this of course is the best time.
    Most plant will double sometimes even triple in size. within the first 3-4 weeks of the 12/12 switch...
    Once you get to know your strain and see the actual stretch you can adjust.

    There are also many techniques for manipulating the plants,

    lst, fimming, and topping... along with running a scrog this also helps to manipulate the plants .
     
  2. Am I right in thinking you can tell what sex they are after around 3 weeks of flowering?

    I started mine of a week ago and I'm sure I can see some balls on one of them :(
     
  3. yes generally 2 weeks sometimes 3 they will show themselves..
    post a pic best to het them out if its male

  5. Well I had 2 female and one male plant so can't grumble really. After around 10 days you could see the clear difference between M & F. It was a sad job cutting Peter down but it had to be done.
    Pinky and Perky are doing just fine, some nice looking buds forming on them :smoking:
     
  6. Can you please tell me if this plant is male or female?

    Thanks!

  17. What's up budslinger I see you are the man here on gc and I wanted to ask you a question I may be a little off subject but I know you will have the answer. Can you prune a plant once it has been flowering for 2 or 3 weeks. I noticed that after I did so the plants stopped smelling and seems it stop the buds from producing anymore. Just was wondering if it is ok to prune fan leaves once the plant is flowering also if I mess the ight and dark schedule up could that have done it also......purp.............thanks so much
