image.jpeg image.jpeg They were born on 4/20 are they supposed to still be so small?

And I'm already seeing this pistols is it because they are feminized or because I'm not keeping them in the sunlight long enough (sometimes I put them out as late as 12 pm!

Also I just took off the straw support I hope they can stay up now.

Any advice or just wait?

If the plants light schedule does not stay consistent (time and intensity) you will hermie all of those if they were going to be female, as far as sexing you will not know if it is a male or female until it is introduced to photoperiod or 12 hours of light 12 hours of darkness, which is not recommended until the plant is atleast 2 weeks old. And will take roughly 2 weeks in 12/12 to show sex. Hope this helps.

First few weeks are all about root growth. Are you strictly growing under natural light??? Day hours should be consistant with off periods of less than 12 hours to ensure veg. What you are seeing are stipules, not pistils. Often plants show sex after maturity, when nodes alternate, around 6 weeks give or take. You can force flowering to see sex by giving a dark period of 12 or more hours, around 2 weeks. The lengthy stems are from light searching and they will most likely get top heavy and fall over. Bury them or continue with the support lightly tapping or bending the stems daily will increases stem strength. Good luck!

Yeah I did this for about 10 days but from today on I'm leaving them out at night I was worried about them getting cold or infested at night. Anyone know what size they could reach in 2 gallons?
