Sexing cannabis

[Chriswolfee94]

Is there a way to stimulate your plants to show sex earlier or sooner?

Do you have any pictures? I think you have to wait a least until they mature. How old are they?

Clone them and put them under 12/12, 11/13, 10/14, etc.

 

[Chriswolfee94]

There both almost 1month old but I've herd people starting with 12/12 from seed does play a role in earlier signs of sex?

 

[Connoisseurus Rex]

About 2 more weeks and they may start showing in veg. You could flower them right now if you wanted. Just put them under a flowering schedule if you're ready to commit to flowering.

Alright if I do go 12/12 right now how long you thinking to show sex since if I veg for an extra 2 weeks they would probably show sex as well bottom line is ether way quicker or no?

My plants started flowering about 10 to 12 days after going 12 and 12.

If you start flowering them now on a 10/14 schedule, it'll be between a week and 2 most likely.

If you keep them in veg until 6 weeks, some will show sex. Not always a definite in my experience. Sometimes they won't show until you induce flower.

Switching schedules right now is your quickest option.

Ok so 10/14 would be a better light ratio than 12/12 ?

And then your that much closer to them beautiful buds. You sound very anxious as we all are. go 12-12. And good luck

It shows flowers quicker in my opinion. It's what I run now. Everyone has a preference and a scientific theory to back it up... Check out some of the science behind the "why" and make you're own decision I guess. Anything under 12hrs of light works though.

How do you run your veg light schedule? And do you go from that right to 10-14?

Normally I run 18/6 until the switch. I'm experimenting this grow so I'll see if there's any difference (6/2). Normal flowering is 10/14 for me. If I have sativas that go past 10 weeks, I drop it down to 8 hrs to finish them quicker.

I have researched the light schedule. Your the first I've ran into that uses 10- 14. I want to give it a try. Thanks.

I find it to be a happy medium to 12/12 and 8/16.

12/12 seems to take too long to start and finish flowering and 8/16 seems like not enough time to fatten up. Haven't tried a straight 8/16, that's just how it seems to me.

I'm going to try it this grow. Faster harvest with no loss on weight sounds awesome. I like to hear from someone who has experience with things like this. You can't believe all of what you read on the web.

It's not always a faster harvest... They seem to run truer to the flowering times posted on seedbank websites in my experience. I've had strains that were supposed to be done in 8-9 weeks. Sometimes they would run a week or 2 longer under 12/12.

Under 10/14, the damn blueberry is done in 8 weeks. None of this waiting an extra week and shit haha.

That's what happend with me. They all were two weeks longer than the seedbank stated. That's why I like the idea of 10-14. Someone has got to fight back. Lol

Straightened things out for me. I didn't compare yields or anything but I certainly can't complain about them with the 10/14.
