Once they have been put into a 12/12 cycle that's when they'll show sex. What some do is cover a portion with a black bag while the rest of the plant is in 18/6 or 24/0. Sex can show. Or you can go 12/12 and wait to see after a few days. If it's a female you can or back to veg. to grow the plant longer. By doing this thought it will take a little bit longer to get your final results because it sent the plant back about a week or two.

Those are beautiful plants. Keep doing whatever you are doing. The overall look of a plant can be strain specific.

I tend to wait until their 12" min before I do 12/12. But since your in the 12/12 phase right now I'd keep going until you find out, then go back to your veg. lighting if you want Your plants look awesome! Rushing them 99% of the time can set you back a few days at least if not a new grow!
Remember its like fine wine! The best is always made in time and aged right never rushed! Like "little Tommy" said it could be a specific strain. Their looking good though don't worry man!

okay well... i only had them on the 12/12 for 2 days.. i took them off and desided to let "nature" be that as it may.. take its course and see what happens. i hope it all turns out well.
i will keep some updates going on here. this is my second try at Growing.. my first was a "cheese" plant. and i had so much fun growing her .. that i had to grow more! lol its a sickness. but i LOVE it.
If anyone else has any suggestions .. i would love to hear them.

What type of soil mixture and nutrients are you using? I'm on my first grow and my plants took twice as long to look like yours do.

OI'd let the plants get much bigger before 12/12. You'll get a much better yield. More plant = more bud. I never understood why some folks flower them when they are so smal

You said a month since you started germination, right? Im guessing its been vegging no more than 2 1/2 to 3 weeks. Your plants look great. Short and stocky, big healthy happy leaves. Keep doing what your doing. I dont know why you put them on 12/12. Patience is virtue and rome wasnt built in a day.

What kind of light are you using? Those plants look great! You got feminised seed dude, so you've got about a 99.5% chance they're female. The 12/12 makes them bud, the longer they go in 24 or 18 the bigger they will get, when 12/12 hits, they fill out with buds and usually double in height if indica or triple if sativa.
