  6. Ment bulbs

  7. They are already flowering meaning they will not get much bigger regardless of what you may try. You either used poor soil and too small a container and maybe not enough of the right light, or all of the above. Start over with at least 2 gallon pots, some good soil and cheap 6500K CFL's making sure to keep them within 3" of the plant/'s and your results should improve dramatically.
     
  8. Ok well when will they be well you know ready

    This girl
     
  9. you planted too late in the season and overwatered them

    try again next year, start earlier, and only water once every few days
     
  10. Next time plant in the ground if you, can or put them in huge buckets (20+ gals) and do it no later then june.
     
  11. You have two flowering hermies . Congrats
     
  12. No one seems to be answering my question when will they be Ready small but Ready

    This girl
     
  13. Ready for what? At that size you aren't going to yield much, 1-5g?
     

  14. Its too late. Those plants are doomed. They are already flowering and they are what looks to be hermies.

    It is too late to re-veg them.....even putting them in a bigger pot and more light wouldnt matter.....because at this point they are root bound.....therefore trying to separate the plants wouldnt work because you would just kill them
     
  15. i'm not seeing pollen sacs or nanners, just a few calyxes...

    So that means what?

  17. It means they're fine. Even if they were hermies, if they're your only plants it isn't anything to fret about, it just wouldn't be ideal. Ideally, you would get your hands on a magnifier of some sort so you can check the trichome color and harvest when the trichomes are a mixture of cloudy and amber. I have a cheap little pocket microscope that I use, but it doesn't work particularly well, so I just harvest when it looks like there isn't any new growth on the way (no new buds/white hairs). I'm afraid they really won't get much bigger, but the good news is they won't take too much light either, so you don't have to worry about buying new bulbs. If you can get them in a closed box that will reduce the light requirement as well.

    Oh, and as far as how much longer they'll need, I would estimate two weeks, but that's a very rough estimate because it's hard to tell in pictures and you never really know. I've had plants be two weeks away from harvest for 6 weeks before...
