Hi Everybody. So I have my first ever plants growing, but I've got a few questions. Any help would be much appreciated. 1. Is there anyway to tell Female from male? Their only bout 10 days old. 2. Do male plants have any purpose? Like do I need them to fertilise the seeds for the next generation? 3. Roughly how long does it take for the plants to mature? Thankyou in advance.

Can someone help me please!! What sex is this? Its been 4 weeks on 12/12 after 2 weeks on 18/6, germinated in a pot from seeds I scored in some mull. Hydro 400W Son T Agro Thanks anyone

It's been like this for a few days now and I don't know what it's doing, if anything at all. The big round sides are not the seed shell, but weird looking leaf like things. The inside are green, the outside is brown and is slowly turning green. Inside are very miniature leafs which are slowly growing but just barely. I must admit this isn't what I thought a seedling would look like. The round leaf looking things on the side I've not seen before on anyone elses grows (this is my first attempt.) I have this under a light @ ~25C temp on 18/6 with a fan running on the side. I water it when the top soil gets dry which is every 2nd day or so. This is taking ages to…

Strains which require high doses of fertilizer. All Indicas with the possible exception of "Hindu Kush" More fertilizer means using the high end of the recommended dosage, not exceeding it. Strains which require medium doses of fertilizer. Skunk#1, Tracnce, Vodoo, Bluberry, Durban Poison, Skunk Passion, Super Haze, Ultra Skunk, Orange Bud, White Widow, Power Plant, Euforia. Strains which require low doses of fertilizer All Sativa hybrids. With a heavy Indica dominant pattern. Taken from the Growers Bible by Jorge Cervantes While I do not take this as gospel (excuse the pun) it gives one a good idea on nutrient doses.

Are feminised seeds just hermophradites or do they just grow females ? I have always believed that once a hermie always a hermie does anyone have any views on this ?

Howdy just looking for a little feed back on my set up. These babies have been under lights for 28 days at 20/4. They seem to be going well, apart from two of the smaller ones having wierd sort of leaves in the crown of them. I have no idea of the strain, they were a mystery bag of seeds. Is it worth sending them to bud now? or should I wait a bit longer? I'm keen for a good yield, but i'm not greedy. Don't really want to have four monsters on my hands either. Any feed back on the pics below would be appreciated.
