I used seed from bag of pot so I don't know what kind it is. I have been following instuctions from the grow bible. I'm in the veg stage using 20-10-20
The first plant was male. This plant I don't know. It won't flower. The plant is about 2.5 months old. It's 23 inches tall and 19 inches wide. I have been running 12/12 for little over 3 weeks using 400w MH. I know HPS would be better but for now I can't afford the $250.00 + bucks for 600W HPS. It's growing really fast in this warmer weather and I'm afraid I'm going to run out of room if it does't start flowering soon. What can I do to get it started flowering now.

Thank You
I glad your here

All you have right now is time. I'm not sure why it is not flowering. Are you sure this one is not a male as well?? I would wait it out a little more. Even though I'm pretty sure you can use MH all the way through, you would've definitely been better off with the HPS (orange/red light spectrum). I don't think MH offers enough of it. Maybe throw a couple of high lumen CFLs in there as well. See what happens! Anyway, I hope everything works out for ya.
