Need help!

[DopeLife]

I seeded 16 seeds and only 1 was strong enough to grow. First time growing and I need you help/opinion on this plant. It started growing fat tips went from 7 to 9 to now 13, but no signs of buds. Some leafs are darker than others and some super bright. The light has been off for 2 days. Is it to late to move it in a bigger pot? Would a move stress the plant?
Thanks in advance.

Looks like a nice healthy plant. Some more info will help. Is it a photoperiod or autoflower strain? What light schedule is it on now? What size pot is it in?

 

[DopeLife]

I don’t know the strain, my MIL gave me the seeds. The light schedule was: 6am to 8/9pm and the pot size is a 8” diameter

Beautiful girl my friend. Welcome to 420magazine.
What's in her pot? What you feeding. Ph? Temps? What size is the pot she's in.
Was it a feminized seed do you know if its a girl?

Whether it's an auto or a reg or a fem, they have to mature before they even show sex (male or female) usually about 30 to 40 days from sprout before you see any action...usually when it matures the nodes (branches) will start to stagger instead of being across from each other...and hell yes transplant and don't use those clay pots they're hell on cannabis roots, they want to stick to the side, look into some fabric pots

My MIL gave the seeds (she in TX I’m in TN), don’t know the strain nor sex! (Bummer). I started using fox farm fertilizer. 6-4-4 then to 0-0.5-0.7 now 2-8-4

I hope I’m doing this right lol

been a smoker not a grower

And BTW, they look good ...another tip I have my lights come on at night, to help keep humidity and heat from being a problem during the hot parts of the day, not to mention it's not "peak hours" where they charge you more

Sweet! Thank you

I'm gonna say that since its got to that size and hasn't started flowering that it is a photoperiod plant. It won't start flowering until you change the light cycle to 12 on 12 off. It has to be 12 hours of total darkness too. In the first few weeks of flowering the plant will stretch and potentially double in size, or more. So beware of how tall you let her grow before initiating flowering.

Here's the feeding schedule for those I use them also

Thank you! I’ll have to build a bigger/taller box.

You could try some LST or supercropping to help reduce the height of the plant but if you're running out of headspace already that may not be enough.

What MochaBud mentions. It looks like that plant has just started to to get mature enough to have the nodes alternate. Probably another week or two before it is mature enough to start flowering if the period of uninterrupted dark is long enough.

Can you tell if it’s make or female? Aren’t they supposed to pollinate with one another (if it’s indeed a photoperiod plant). I just took some more pics before I let it hibernate for 12 hrs of darkness.

I just took these. If this is a male plant then there will be lots of seeds (correct?!)

Are there any little white hairs showing yet. If not as soon as she has been in flower for a couple days she will reveal herself as female, hopefully.
Right where the branches join main stem, either balls or wispy hairs will appear.

If it was a male it would be showing by now...but, look at the stalk where the branches are, and you'll notice a bump with a little white hair coming out, that would be a female if it's a little thread looking thing with balls hanging on it well, I think balls said it all...you can collect pollen or chuck 'em out

Looks girly to me. Change that pot, it wont hurt it a bit, you are going to get root bound. Pot plants can take a huge amount of abuse, research supercropping, because if that's as high as your light goes, you are GUARANTEED to run out of space. As far as your feed goes and water habits goes, whatever you are doing continue, because that plant looks beautifully cared for. Here's a idea of what supercropping does. CHeers!

Whether it is a photoperiod or autoflower plant the male produces the pollen and the pollen gets onto the pistils on the female plant. There are many plants that have both male and female in the same flower but not Marijuana. With Marijuana there can be all female flowers or all male flowers or sometimes both male & female flowers on the same plant.

...If this is a male plant then there will be lots of seeds (correct?!)

I hope you mean "lots of male flowers" since males do not produce seeds. The male flower part might look like a large seed but when it opens it will look like a small bunch of bananas and it might even turn yellow.

Give it time. In a week or two you will have a better idea of which sex your plant is.
