Zamal Reunion:

I may be trying to call it way too early 'cause I just put them into flower, but I'm hoping that these two are female:

.....and this one is a male (The spots at the nodes are still too small to see by eye, and this shot wasn't clear or light enough):

If it's the other way around and it's only one female, it'll be even better considering the way these are getting bigger under such a weak light.

Looks like one male. I can't tell on the other yet. I would give it a few more days and you'll know for sure.

 

[PotChimp]

Thanks man just to be sure every time I never chop one until I see the male flowers separate apart. That might be longer than a few days unless I cut the lights down some (to 11/13, which I'll start Friday if I don't see much more than this).

Looking lush chimp. Zamaldelica here chimp comes.

 

[HunterHunt]

Still cant tell with the pics yet. Give it a few more days. I see nothing that looks like a male cannabis plant. That small growth will either show you male or female in a week or so... Keep us updated!

 

[KingJohnC]

I believe it is too early to sex your cannabis plants.

 

[PotChimp]

It is too early; I know. Thanks for the input, everybody. I was kind of hoping that by getting close shots and cropping the pics I could get a somewhat magnified view and maybe tell a little early. Tomorrow I am going to convert a unit. I have one that's 42" from side to side and I want to expand the back of the unit enough to make it square. I've been having problems for years with too much light reflection and heat in too enclosed of an area. 42" x 42" x 72" with a 600 watt HPS/air-cooled reflector and 8" inline fan, 4" filtered air output and passive intake, CO2 bag hanger, and panda film reflection will be the end goal. They'll be going in it as soon as my Charlotte's Web grow chops (which might be right then as bad as it looks). 11/13 starting Friday, and I'll step it down 1 hr./wk. until 9/15. Post more pics soon.

I managed roughly 3' deep x 4' wide x 5' tall. I've got a 120 mm CPU fan pulling air out and with the 6" inline fan cooling the reflector I'm getting 83.3 degrees F, good considering this is the hottest part of the year. All 3 of these are now at 11/13 under a 600 watt HPS (I may turn the light ballast to 60% power until they get a little bigger). The plants are 5 weeks from seed today:

Lots of room I figure being a Sativa, by the time I go 10/14 next week they'll notice the light change enough and start doing their thing. They look okay so far.

 

[dunc014]

Looking great buddy. Those plants are double in size size or even triple. I started flower on a sativa dominate. She was 28in tall and now she's 59in. I believe she's done stretching though.

 

[PotChimp]

Thanks dunc014. I'm getting a little worried about the size, hence the early flowering schedule. The way they're going, I hope I only get one female.

 

[dunc014]

You only want female. Can I as why. More females more buds.

 

[PotChimp]

This strain grows too vigorously I won't be able to grow two females out in a healthy way as little room as I have. I could fit two, but I'd have to trim them both out.

 

[dunc014]

How tall is the tent. They look about two feet tall or so.

 

[PotChimp]

That unit is 5' tall, but room for the light at the top and room for the pots at the bottom gives me about 3 feet of workable space. The plants are around a foot tall right now; I'll do a measurement or put a lighter next to the plants next time I take a pic.

 

[dunc014]

Start flowering now and you might be able to get away with it. Any sign of sex yet. If not switch them over, and you will know what you got to work with for sure.

 

[dunc014]

Scratch that. Should of revamped my reading. How long they been in flower.

 

[PotChimp]

Because Sativas respond less to 12/12 than Indicas I thought I would hit it with 12/12 this last week, 11/13 this coming week, 10/14 the next week, and 9/15 the week after that and until chop, dunc018. I probably could have just let it go at 18/6 until 6 weeks and hit it with 11/13 and got the same results. No signs of flowering to determine sex yet, but as KJC mentioned it's a bit early for that. If you would have seen some of the Hazes I tried to grow in a tent you'd see why I was worried about size

 

[dunc014]

Gotcha. I understand your issue with space. I'm outdoors with the liberty haze. She was almost two Months into veg before I switched her over. She was 28in or so when I started flower. She is now 50 to 60 in tall. KJC informed me that most plants stretch vigorously for 21-26 days. Basically first three weeks of flower. I believe this gives them a better centralized flower head. Also you can use it as a timeline for switching over to flowering nutes. Just my opinion. I hope mine is done stretching cause I only got about a 1too2ft of space left before there above the fence. Would like the buds to fill the rest. Lol

 

[dunc014]

This is mine at three weeks into flower. I'm playing with light times also. Currently trying 6/18 for a few days. Just wanna see how she reacts.

 

[PotChimp]

I wanna get all the weed I got off the Old Timers Haze I grew, just minus the seven miles of branches. I don't know if it will work or not and playing with the light schedule might get me a hermie but it's worth the chance to see what happens, and I might get lucky.
