WELCOME to RIU. You will find a lot of great information on here, but also some not so great information. The most important thing is to continue to learn and do individual research to find what works best for you in your garden. Make use of the forums search bar, as this is a great way to find threads that are posted on topics and questions you may have. Furthermore, don't take information as being a 100% valid without verification, I prefer members who have photos, videos, etc to back there claims, but even then every garden and grower are different.

Finally, please know that "Well-Known Member" doesn't necessarily equal "Great/Knowledgable Grower" as many new members tend to make this assumption. I am a prime example of a new grower, who has received this status simply because of my activity on the forum!

Best of lucky with all your grows and again welcome to the RIU community!

Yes ita a dude my other girl has the hairs this one just had more tops and was the better looking plant i was sure it was male just didn't want to believe it and wanted to b 100% sure
Sorry for your loss :( in my opinion I would have to agree it's a male, but I ALWAYS leave the decision of chopping a plant to the gardner.

Definitely look as if you are doing well for your first grow as they appear nice and healthy. Just a tip for future photo posts, it's helpful to shut off HPS lights as you won't get the striping and discoloration of the photos. Looking good though, keep it up!

Before taking the next suggestion...go to the kitchen and get a tall plastic garbage bag...place the plant in the bag, completely remove it from the grow area. Now...HACK IT! BURN IT, PUT THE ASHES IN A CAN OF DOG FOOD, RUN OVER IT SEVERAL TIMES IN YOUR CAR, TAKE THE FLATTENED CAN 2 MILES INTO THE WOODS, AND BURY IT! DO IT NOW!!!!.

Then when you get back home strip, put your clothes immediately in the wash or sealed in a bag. Take a shower before entering your grow area. All it takes is one pollen spore and one pistil and your gurlz are literally fucked.

Dont worry too much. Maybe you get some seeds out of your beauty male plant maybe not. Chop it now though or if you are interested in seeds tgere are a few methods to collect pollen

I think I started the second run to early there already 4 weeks and I'm just in my first week of flower on the big tent so that means the girls in my veg tent will b atleast 11 weeks old b4 they move into flower and I believe they will out grow my space :(

4x4...i have a 4x4x6.5 veg and an 5x5x7 flower....what I'm saying is the purple pots are 3-4 weeks old and they have to wait 7 more weeks at least till the flower tent finishes to be moved and flowered in the 5x5 my concern is height with an 10-11 week veg then flower stretch.. Because the girl in my flower tent now is 2ft tall after only 8 week veg and I topd, lst, super cropped and scrog her out and this is only 7days in to flower I assume she has alot more strecth to go

Why not just flower them in your veg tent then?

I have no carbon filter in the veg tent and its an 600w not an 1000w but I guess I could the wattage\Square foot is close to the same....Do I really need an carbon filter exausting under my house when I have no negibors but one old couple thats threw the woods about 300-400 yards away I can smell the flower tent bad exausting in the house but not threw the floor under the house I was about to order one today for the flower tent I just don't want everyone one that comes in my yard/pourch I have no filter at all right now

I flower without one in the middle of a city with neighbors around 50 ft away, but I smoke all the time so they are mostely used to the smell by now
