Well guys last night i decided to give LST a try. Seems to have went well. I tied down one plant right after lights came on, when i left the plant the top was on its side when i checked it 8 hours later the top had already pointed back up and the side branches were now standing straight. Ill get some pics up soon to show off what i have done

Haha I looked at this last night and didn't post then either LOL. And I was probably wasn't gonna post this time either if it wasn't for that comment.
They look like they are growing good in their individual trashcans! Not much advise to give at this point, they are nice and green and bushy! So your doin good.

LOL like the trash cans huh? they fit in my grow box perfect and i shouldnt have to transplant from them. My goal was not to transplant at all and looks like its going well. I will be going to 12/12 on friday after a heater is placed in the room as the nights are cold here still.Haha I looked at this last night and didn't post then either LOL.

lookin good but I'm confused.....you said one was a male how do you know if you haven't switched to 12/12 yet? I just wanted to add that those pots are probably way bigger than necessary. If the soil is affordable than by all means do it but I personally had to drop like 20$ on some fox farm so I am going to be repotting as much as needed to save it.

Thats correct. the plants started showing sex early about 2 weeks into 18/6. this can happen from time to time. I caught the early stages of the male preflower forming. Ill post ya a pic to show.
The pots may be over kill but i liked the idea of not having to transplant. As far as the soil goes its a homemade mix that i have been perfecting for a year or so now. Its all natural compost, light sand and a few other things, to keep the microbes working.

IF you can't get a hps then instead of useing 6 45 watts why not use 100 watt cfls?
