can't tell sex by the vid, are they autos or photos? Also you'll need more light than what you currently have to bring them to full term. If you're going to stick with clfs here is the highest wattage cfl at the lowest price (that I've seen) that will fit in the sockets you're using. You'll also want some 2700k clfs for flowering. You shouldn't use the 5000k bulbs you have for the entire life of the plant. Doesn't have the right spectrum for flowering. Both the veg and flower spectrums are avail on this site for about 20 bucks a pop. Not bad for about 7000 lumens.

He's right, at the very least home depot sells 68w CFLS in a 2700k color spectrum for $16 bucks if I remember correctly. The lights you have will not see things through till the end like you want them to. A small investment in, at the very least, some smaller wattage if not larger wattage lights in the 2700k spectrum is needed to make your plants flower right.

An excellent explanation of why this is true in the link below. I'm not trying to break your bank man, just want to make sure you have the knowledge to see your plants through to harvest. This minimal investment will pay for its when it comes time to harvest, this I know to be true.

sorry mate, yanks over here. Seriously though I have no clue but I'm sure if you went to your local hardware store and asked for a high wattage cfl in a 2700k spectrum they could point you in the right direction. Just tell them you're looking to replace a high intensity discharge warehouse light with a compact flourescent.

Flipping the lights to a 12/12 will force a flower and show sex on all your plants. If you want quality fem seeds check out www.dope-seeds.com he's based in the UK, used to ship to the states, unfortunately not anymore. Indica dominant plants are easier to grow for people who haven't had as much experience. Cheers!

about a week and a half, its highly dependent on the strain and since you aren't running high wattage lights in a flowering spectrum perhaps two to two and a half weeks.

yeah they'll continue to grow and grow fast when they switch to full on flowering mode. Just watched the video - Given the size of your plants right now if they remain healthy they should get at least a foot and a half if not two feet tall if given proper lighting/nutes ect. There are plenty of things you can do to reduce the height of a plant. Hop on the search function in the forum and look for lst and topping methods.

Still can't tell but they look super healthy, the vid is kind of grainy - can you take a picture. Basically if you see while pistils growing where branch meets the main stalk then they are female. If you see little balls growing - you guessed it.
