My first indoor & hydro grow!

ok its been like 10 days. i changed the light and all that like i was supposed to but only one showed me it was a boy and all the rest are doing nothin. one looks like a boy but im not sure. i even changed nutes, and bumped them up to 1/2 strength instead of 1/4. any help is appreciated and will have pics soon.

ps
my friend said that i may have pulled too early on the first one. does the hair come out of the first ball?

you shouldn't be pulling on anything. just let them do their thing - if they are all males - start over with your new found knowledge.

well the first one i pulled and the only one so far im sure from the pics was a male so i got rid of it. was i not supposed to. i had the first ball about 1/4in away from the plant and was working on forming the second (pollen sac?) ball.

now on the rest i have some pics im going to try an take so i can get your input. ill post them in less than an hour!

well.........
i took the pics but my camera is too shitty to tell what im talking about. im gonna try and borrow a frieds cuz i really need help


how long does it usually take once you changed the lights to show?

I'm sorry- i misunderstood you. yes - get rid of the males if you don't want pollen and/or seeds!

ive gotten rid of two already. the other ones have little white dots but theyrenot getting any bigger, are they girls?

hard to tell without pictures but if they look like little white hairs - it is a girl.

i hope they are girls too! i have to pull some males today i think

and then there were 2. all i have left is one but my buddy who i was growing with has one left too. were hoping one is a fem so we can clone her.
hope you have one too. good luck

thank you - i ended up with 3 of 5 being females (started w/6 but one died). one of the seeds was feminized so i kind of cheated

how were you able to tell already?
that seemed fast.

i switched to 12/12 on day 23 and i'm on day 37 i think.

i'm figuring less than two months left to go!

ok sorry it took so long for me to post, computer crashed and had to buy a new one. yay go dell.


ok i had one left and it ended up being female! YAY!!!
dont worry ive got pics! i dont know about the amount of leaves tho should i trim some off? i already took the shade leaves off to expose the MANY flower sites, but should i take more?
anyway heres the pics and advice would be helpful!

p.s.

if i dont say so myself she is lookin mighty fine! and i added an extra light just cuz i wanted to.

she is looking fine - i wouldn't trim much of anything after switching to 12/12. i try to do most of my pruning during veg if i can.

how much bigger do you think she is going to get?
shes been in 12/12 for almost 2 months. she didnt really start showing until about 2 weeks ago.

the last camera really didnt do her justice so heres some better pics with a diffrent cam

already forming trichs! very nice...
