Yea i just tossed the one we were sure was a male.
still thinking about the others, not really sure what to do and when is the end time for tossing
the males before they are messing with my ladies (or ladyboys, idk yet). im start flowering them in 4 days.
about the CALMAG, i have some problems finding it, is it too late or i can use it during bloom?


I added some more pics, maybe you can understand wtf is going on with my plants genders =/

1 2 and 3 are def female I think. Cant tell on the others though. I'd geuss 4 is male but it might also be too early. don't worry you'll have a little time once theyre in flower to make sure you've sexed them right

Oh ya, also very unnecessary to use an hid for veg just grab 4 100w cfl bulbs and clamp holders. this will save electricity, make temps easier to handle for veg, and you can get then about two inches from your plant without burning which causes nice tight nodes with good training causes a better canopy..your temps are on the line you never want to see 80 and your aiming for a constant average of about 75 during the day..lowest hid I've ever run was 400w and I would not keep the light any closer than a foot and a half or two away so depending where it was before you moved it you could have also fried the plant a bit again can't be sure with the Pic given but id still bet on the Mg over the heat at this time
I don't understand how 400W of CFL is cheaper to run than 250W HID? Wattage is wattage whatever you plug into it and I'm not sure that 4 X 100w CFL's would actually run cooler than 1 X 250w HID.
I currently run a 250w for mothers and it's only about 6" away, no burn.

Thanks man..feels good to hear that, i was really in tense about it.
What about the CALMAG? anyone know if its addable at the flower stage or i almost lost my chance to use it?

you can still add some calmag...I didn't look real hard but is it showing signs of lacking it? Are you using RO water? If you are then it's a good thing to keep on hand

no, i`m using tap water, balancing the PH and add some nuts (SENSI A+B).
i have some yellowish leaves and i read it might be the reason..
