im having some trouble figuring out what is going on with my plants sex. i see that females are supposed to have nice long hairs as so and males little seed sprouts like so but after 17 nights of 12/12 light cycle my plants just have wierd bumps am i just being impatient? are these early signs of male or female? it just seems like they should have turned by now, its been in this setup jan 3rd-started jan 29th-put under 2 100 watt cfl's for a 12/12 light cycle
I would check for light leaks. If that's not the case.....what strain is it? I've had fems thrown into flower too soon and had them take 20+ days to pop hairs. I've also read about strains that can take 3 months before they pop hairs. Just depends. I have a Skunk #1 that will pop hairs in 3-4 days, if the first 2 days are total dark. Keep at it, you'll figure it out
Need a better pic of the nodes, your pic is very blurry. You plant looks stretched. You say 2 100w CFLs -- I bet you are quoting equivalent watts, which means nothing. If so those are about 25w bulbs, and that's not enough light to flower a plant, which helps explain the stretching. Also, you lights are too far from the plant, which also explains the stretching.
