Need help

I am into about the 6th or 7th week of the vegatative stage and I think I have one male and one female in the same pot. Should I seperate them ASAP? They are about 7 inches tall, and I was also wondering when I should start doing the 12/12 light cycle so they bud. I am not sure of a good height to start budding at because I am not exactly positive how many grams each plant will give off. Someone help ASAP!

Damn. Too bad you didnt ask sooner. Thats exactly why you shouldnt plant two in one pot. You are going to have to separate them before flowering. I would chop and use something like hygrozome to help with the dead roots. Got any pics?

so...uh...just out of curiosity...

what would happen if one were to chop down the offending presumed male....and then graft a twig from the female into the male root stock?
i only ask cause i don't know what my two are quite yet...

keep them together and just grow happily. If you want seeds, take one of the male bananas off and sprinkle it on the part of the female you want seeds on.

7 week veg and only 7" tall can I have some info on your grow op as that's not exactly great growth rates.

got to seperate them they will root lock, 1 plant to at least a 5gal bucket..7 inches tall?..doesnt sound right..the only way to be shure it's a male/female is to pre-flower it..need more info on the gro set up..like lights,soil,strain,temps day/night,watering schedule,nutes...

seeded buds will get you high as fuck...just not quite as strong and less yield due to the seeds....if you dont want seeds just kill the male and grow as usual....no big deal either way...optimum no...doable and decent outcome of course....

you seem like a guy that could use some seeds. the bud will still be good if you do happen to have a male. That's why I said keep them together. just grow happily and things will be good. you can probably get over a hundred seeds. that's a lot of plants/or a lot of money

Totally agree...just grow it as normal and you will be fine high and with seeds for the future...win/win

Already answered...and read up on growing as you seem to be very fresh at this...not knocking you just trying to help as you asked

Ok thank you a lot for your help. Last question, how tall should my plant be before I start the 12/12 cycle? I am thinking it will be about a foot in another week, so would shooting for a foot give me a decent amount of bud off the plants?

you could start 12/12 right away, the faster you put them on 12/12 the faster you get done. you'll only notice a difference in bud quantity if you actually veg them for a real long time. I'd say to just put them on 12/12 right now.

some people get a whole lot of bud just keeping them on 12/12 it doesn't make a big difference. it's all about your time. if you have 1 year to grow then you can veg for a long time and actually get some lbs, but if you are waiting a year for 1 plant you could grow a whole lot more plants in the time and get a lot more.
