Great news today! So far I have 2 females and one male...the big plant in the blue pot is a female as well as the retard plant with two main stems. The first one that took major LST in a party cup ended up being a male, but hopefully I can take some pollen samples because it grows perfect for solo cups....hopefully I can breed that one with #6 (the one with the huge root ball)

Waddup!?!?!? Update time 
the plant labled 75/25 (Biggest in the blue pot) is a female like I mentioned earlier...I tried to get pics for you guys but my camera was acting up earlier so that should be the only one I couldn't get good close-ups of. The plant I named hermie (The one with two main stems) has turned out to be a female too! I'm keeping a close eye on that one for balls to show up, but have the feeling it's just gonna be a great plant. If it does turn out to be just female there is a perfect branch coming off right in the middle of the main stem, and seem like it would be perfect to clone soon. (I have some cloning gel in the mail) Last but not least the #6 (Huge root ball) has show her white hairs too! There are 2 in there still waiting to be sexed any day now, and another 3-4 about 2-3 weeks behind those.

Update!!!!! Waddup everybody?? I know I've been slacking with updates a lot lately, I've been working a lot lately, and tripping a little here and there, but hopefully I'll be able to catch back up a little bit and keep you guys informed. The plants are rediculously bigger than before! The plant that I named hermie is going crazy right now, it has the 2 main stalks and then another 3 smaller ones growing from the stem. I expected the smaller blue pot as well as Rillo and one other to sex by now, but none have shown any sign yet. My guess is they'll all be female since they're so far behind. The 12/12 from seeds I have are doing great, one of them has 3 main stalks it looks like. I've given you guys a couple of photos to see for yourself. Fungis Gnats are starting to take over 
I've seen some places that said tobacco juice is a good way to take care of them, but I'm just not to sure I'm ready to try it. I was going to try sand within the next day or 2 just to see if it works. Any sugguestions would be apreciated!
Things I've Learned:
Once you plant seedlings, even if the soil is bone dry, the plants don't need water for atleast a week, and that's just a few drops on the soil. Once the 2 week mark hits it's time to water, and right around week 3-4 (Depending on N deficiency) it's time to give them their first bit of food.
You can feed these babies every single time if you want....just make sure you give it a flush once every 3-4 feedings.
Every plant so far has been good starting off with 1/6th-1/4th Nutes, and keeps this routine for a good week, after that they hit 1/3rd Nutes for another week or 2, then on to 1/2 Nutes probably untill they're finished or I find a decent blooming Nute to use.
I'm using MG All Purpose nutes whose NPK Level is 24-8-16

Well, I have bad news...the plants weren't looking too hot since I took a road trip yesterday, and didn't get a chance to water them. I'm sure they'll be back up and normal tomorrow, so I'll try to get you guys some pictures then. I will be posting a few pictures of a new setup I just bought today.....decided to start a DWC bucket along with the rest of the plants. I figured since a few of them are already showing roots why not give them a great home for them to flourish. Also I got some Schultz rooting powder (It's all we have around here) and some MG Perlite (Also only kind I could find) Also going to be trying to make a little Bubbler for clones I'll get pics of the DWC tonight.
Edit: gotta roll up a bleezy for all the hard work done earlier.

Finally got everything finished...
Cut 3 cup holes for the DWC bucket tonight, and applied one coat of black spray paint to the outside of the bucket. After that dried I applied a white coat of spray paint to the outside of the bucket. Tomorrow I'll head back to the store and grab some aquarium hosing so I can install the bubble stone, and drop the plant into their new home
I also added 3 more 26w to the setup and spread the lights out a tad bit. Right now I'm using 9x 26w and 4x 65w Soft white bulbs. I have 4 26w Daylight bulbs I've been debating on throwing in there, but I wasn't sure if it was needed or not....sugguestions are appreciated.
I picked up some Superthrive today and plan to give that to the plants next feeding. I also plan to buy another air pump so that I can start a bubbler to start clones in.
That's pretty much it for this update, hopefully the girls will be looking better tomorrow and I can give you guys some beautiful pictures

The only budget thing I might suggest is instead of foil, which isn't good at reflecting. Go to Walmart in the camping section and buy an emergency camping blanket for $1. It is a mylar blanket. decent size and the price is right.
