Looking Good Stonick. Does that fan stay in that position? Do you have anything blowing across the girls? Nice Profile Pic.. My fav game ever!

Good luck

Cool, you could probably position them closer to each other at this point and cover more of them with a nice breeze to strengthen those stems up with what you have. Not that they look weak, just a thought.

Looking good, but from my experience with that tent size, you will learn that 12 plants will be too many. Keep them small and you "might" have the room.

I use a 4x4x8 tent for flower and I can usually only fit a max of 6 plants, I still struggle for more room.

You can check out my grow tent to show what I mean by size limitations...

Thanks for advice lilzuko! I was not planning on keeping all , Im banking on a few being males and I end up with a few less. I see your grow looks great!

i upgraded to a tower fan for my tent, works well with a small footprint, but i also have mine on a 4' plywood turntable so i can easily get to everything or you can go with a few 6" clip ons to direct the flow above and below. whats your plan for sexing? wait a few weeks and then just put them all in 12/12 and pull and cull as your find males?

Thanks for commenting! I need them big enough to get a clone from each then i will turn them over. My main dilemma at this point is some are getting big fast. Not sure if If i should try training or let it go natural the first time , especially with this many.

Ok I took clones over 8 days ago seen small roots popping out of the rapid rooter. Ive kept them on 16 /6. Just wondering if this are showing sex and why they would be?
Pic 1 are stipules not pistils, pic 2 does look like pistils but can't see well enough, could be dried up stipules.

Hey there. They look nice and healthy. Couple things to think of next time.

1. Too many plants. Id do max 5,
2. Increase lamp w for flower :) 600w min for that space Imo, I'm currently running 1400w vert in my 4x4 ;
3. Run 18/6 for veg
