when they show more i will post updates and pictures, i was thinking about topping them... is it too far into flowering to top them? will it stunt yield?
Personally, I would not Top them if they are in flowering. I would recommend topping at least 1 week prior to Flowering. If you top during flowering, your plant will transfer it's energy to healing itself instead of budding. As far as effecting Yield or Potency, I do not know. I would assume it would NOT be good for the end results but with out controlled tests (which I am sure you could find some where online), I couldn't say for sure.

Yeah, nice pic. Lol, since those power lines look like their not hooked up... I would shimmy up that bitch and take that light. Just sitting up there wasting away when it could be giving life.

Heh I remember when I was a young teenager I use to climb the light pole stand thing that over hung the tracks, a few feet above the trains, and sit down waiting for a train. When you were up there, your only like 5-10 ft above the train... pretty intense- especially when you were blazed... Felt and looked like you were gonna get nailed by a huge fucking train. Rumbled and Rattled the hell out of you but damn it was a rush. Eh, that pic brought back those memories. :joint::peace:

So i have been having some problems with a few of my plants, i had to kill one that was male, (of course my best looking one). it was sad but necessary. i have another one that died (the one in the shot glass) i over fed it with nutes and burnt the hell out of it,

i have another one that i am 90% sure is male, in 2 days i will be able to tell fully and i will kill it, i topped one plant even though i shouldnt have, i wanted to top something, lol... :)

that leaves 4 plants, 2 are doing great and are healthy and i think they are female, but the other two are drooping like crazy, i think i over fed them... oh well, they should recover, i am hoping for 2-3 females, if so, i will definetly clone one BUT

how should i clone one if it has already been in flowering?

pics soon

As far as I know, once they are too far into flowering, you can't clone them anymore.

Heh, I feel ya on the topping thing. I wanted to do it too, fortunately for me, the biggest was my female. I FIM'd that one, the second biggest I topped and it ended up Hermie on me. I think FIMing doesn't stress your plant as much.. hopefully the girls pull through for you. gl

yeah well i have heard of people cloning once they know who there females are, but how would they know??? pre-flowers

Yeah, I would say its probably safe to clone in the first week of 12/12... as soon as you see preflowers. I would say as long as hairs are not showing I would imagin you could clone. I might be wrong on that though.

This is from my current grow. The first picture is a EARLY clear Male Preflower.


This next pic is a EARLY female preflower. Be careful to notice the slight difference. Can easily be mixed up but this is what you want to look for. Its hard to see but you can see it doesn't really have a short stem to it nor does it have a ball like shape. It looks more like a very small triangle.

cool thanks uberpea. i think as soon as i see hairs, like withink the first 5 minutes, :) , i will cut a clone,
Have you ever heard of some one letting the plant live through flowering, and not cut it all, i have heard of people letting it go through then re vegging it and taking clones... or am i just crazy???:twisted:

or dude, you could always pull a few clones from each, sex them whenever you want.
make sure you label the clones and then just pull the male clones/plants

Duece.
