so i have 4 little vegging plants at the moment from bagseed i was wondering if switching 12/12 then back to veg or take clones from each root them and flower them? i was afraid switching them from veg to flower and back to veg again they could hermie. Besides that wouldnt happen in nature
just wait until they naturally preflower. that way, you can pull any males, and take clones without stressing the potential females by switching the cycle back and forth it'll take just as long either way
they show preflowers when they are sexually mature. usually week 4 of veg. this is why switching the cycle doesn't really do anything imo.
if its any consolation ill be tipping them anyway and making a mother of each strain as long as they are female
