plant refuses to sex...never seen one like it

[djruiner]

ok..first try at this..hope i dont screw it up..but...ive got an issue with this sativa plant...dont know the strain...random bagseed..yeah yeah i know..ive ordered some killer beans..but thats a later thread.now i had this plant in veg for about a month and a half,its now been in a 12/12 cycle for over a month.it refuses to show any type of sex.have had some preflowers,but they wont change or die and fall off.im growing in great soil,large pot,so not rootbound,drains well,ph at 6.5,under 4 26w bloom cfl's,vegged with 4 grow (6400k) cfl's.they have plenty of fresh air...large intake and exhaust fans.temp run about 74f-76f of the day and about 65-70 at night.rand i know there are no light leaks at all.in a closet that is unused with no light anywhere during its dark period.had been giving a 20-20-20 fert till i put it into flowering ,then switched 2 warm castings and big bud from AN at 2 weeks into flowering..at the 4 week mark i stopped the bloom nutes and flushed it,that was about a week and a half ago...now the question...why wont this lil bitch sex..at all..and i know that was long..but everyone always wants details...you got um..and ill have pics on here soon as my dell lappy stops being a douche and lets my card reader work

well if its got preflowers from switching to 12/12, how long have they been visible, it most liekly jsut took a few weeks to show sex because of lwo lighting and genetics, but if it has now shown preflowers, it shouldnt be a week or so beffore you see buds begining to form, and yes photos please

 

[ginjawarrior]

have you tried an extended dark period? 36 hours in dark might force it along

or you could try switching to 13 hours dark 11 hours light that might help force it

 

[ginoSA]

might be because you only using 100w cfl?

 

[nothingtodeclare]

hi m8 you have not overwatered it or some other thing that would cause a certain amount of stress as this happened to me i overwatered at the begining of 12/12 an i caused it to stunt it self after my waterlogged soil dried up things started to improve an started to flower as normal only asking as you said you flushed it so my answer is you stunted it for a week or 2 causing a delay in sexing just let soil dry up give a small amount of grow an bloom an superthrive if you have some works great for stress after soil coco or what ever medium you are using dry up a bit hope things get better peace

(well if its got preflowers from switching to 12/12, how long have they been visible) they started showing preflowers before i put it into 12/12
(have you tried an extended dark period? 36 hours in dark might force it along
or you could try switching to 13 hours dark 11 hours light that might help force it) put it in 24 hours of darkness before going 12/12
(might be because you only using 100w cfl?) being its a small growing area,mylar reflecting it,and have grown with less light then that,dont think thats it.....and for the last comment on overwatering..i doubt it..i check the soil,the weight and let it get a slight droop to the leaves before i water it,its not over watering.not much stress on the plant other than some lst'ing i did mid-veg....and was using big bud on it at 1/4 strength till i flushed it after a month of flowering...so...next

 

[djruiner]

but ty for the ideas...ima give this thing another week then its getting chopped to make room for the new babies

 

[jondamon]

could be a bad genetics bean it is bag after all.

i expected problems with my bagseed grow.

it could be also your lights.

personally i would take a journey to your grow shop get yourself a 200w or 300w 2700k CFL and try that for a week or so.

the only thing i can think is genetics...i started out with 6 plants from the same bag...this was the only sativa...but it was the best looking plant at the time..and i had limited grow space so i kept this one.and ive had success with these lights and seen others grow with less...its still growing like a beast...just wont go into flowering its at 30" tall so i know its mature enough

 

[joe weed smoker]

sounds like u got a ill set up and u studied ur shit bro. Looks like u need a MR Ganja to this thread

 

[djruiner]

ive got some deisel ryder and some short rider seeds on the way here...once they sprout..this plant goes buh bye.hope i get more luck out of these autoflowering strains..and they are from the joint doctor...so i know they will be decent

 

[djruiner]

Looks like u need a MR Ganja to this thread....umm...huh? sorry..new to the site..but not to growing...first soil grow for me...but didnt want to get into another hydro setup...my last nft system costed me a fortune
