Thanks I've checked them out. I have a 430watt ballast and they don't have the eye hortilux bulb i want. I could e-mail them they may be able to help.

I will wait 2 more weeks (next Payday) to get the bulb as I spent $75 at the hydro shop on nuts today. The bulb that came with it is doing ok I may use it for this whole grow.

I'm researching a 12/12 grow from seedling (no veg time). My next grow I may try this. I plan on taking a clone or two from each plant this weekend. I would guess I have at least 1 or 2 males so when I sex the plants I can dump the male clones then.

:cry: It looks like #2 has balls also. The other thread seem to all agree that it's male. So that leaves 5 to be female I hope.

Today is day 50 and 3rd day of flower. So about a week and a half. I found two males an hour ago.
I have one 430 watt hps and eight 26 watt cfl's at 2700k for side lighting.

I going to try a controlled pollination of some buds. I'll post pics as I do it.

Then I will make hash out of the male leaves.

1) could be female very small and my close vision sucks.

2) might be male.

3) I think this one is a girl.

4) might be male.

5) I see something but can't tell.

6) male, I posted pics of this of 5 of 5 said male.

7) small can't tell.

As of now it is 1 female and 1 male for sure, I think after lunch or dinner they could be big enough to tell. I'm surprized after this short of flower time that I can tell anything.

Now that the weekend is here I will be able to look at them all day. This 12/12 cycle puts the lights on a little before I go to work. I have just enough time to rotate position and water if needed. Then after work about 2 hours to look at them. I'm going to go look some more until my wife get out of bed.

you have some very nice looking plants there! It's good to hear you have at very least a couple of ladies amongst your crop. Isn't it a thoroughly enjoyable 'hobby'! Even my wife is getting into it!

Wishing you all the best - I'll keep watching.

I'm so excited!!! Thats great that you got some chica's! I think your seeing signs of sex so early b/c of vegging it so long! I've heard of people vegging for a month and seeing sex in a couple weeks but your's were much more develped once you put it in flowering. Who knows.....who cares???? You got some FEMALES!!!!
Enjoy
