First grow in a while, let's watch!

they're just taking a bit cause they were still very young seedlings when you switched to 12/12....you should know within a week or 2....and remember, males usually show before females so if they are taking a while it could be a good thing....

I really don't think that those are ready to be flowered they are way young. I am no expert by any means but from seed i always give my plants a nice fat veg time like at least 30days or more. If those were clones id say go for it man but im pretty sure you have to let those babies mature first. Also with my plants i wait at least 2 weeks from seed (maybe more depending on the plant) to start feeding them nutes. I give mine just plain water for the first 2 weeks. But again im no expert I'm jus giving you some friendly advice from what works for me nothin more nothin less. But good luck I hope everything goes well. Keep us updated.

No, they were fine to flower. IMO though, cloning is always better done BEFORE you start flowering.
1 - You throw the clones and the original plants togethere and veg them for another week
2 - Flower the clones. If you labeled properly and flower only the clones, you will know what original plants will turn out male.
3 - Throw the male clones out along with their corresponding plants that are now known as males.
4 - Pick the best original plant of each strain to be the mother.
5 - Put the rest (clones and non-mothers) into flowering.

Cloning before or during flowering is fine; however, I believe it's better done during the Vegetative stage.

It's been a while, and 90% of the clones didn't make it.
Lesson learned: don't take clones from flowering plants.

I've transplanted these 5 into a mix of 90% Fox Farms Organic and 10% perlite. Feeding schedule is BC boost, BC Bloom, Awesome Blossom, Thrive Alive B1 and Kool Bloom at 1700 ppm. These plants seem to be able to tolerate the high ferts pretty well.

The sativa in the back, and far right are just starting to flower after more than 40 days of flowering.
Another lesson learned: Flowering sativas from seedling takes quite a while.. and... sativas get huge!

I'm thinking another 3-4 weeks for the Bid Bud. I can't wait to see them swell up!

 

[j99jm]

I haven't seen any growth over the last few days. The lights have been about 4" from the top of the plants and I think there was a heat issue. Would high heat cause flowering to almost stop? These are Big Bud, so I was expecting a big burst over the last 2 weeks and nothing has really changed. Any thoughts?

 

[j99jm]

Haven't really been updating, but They're almost ready. They had some ph problems which stunted their growth, but they're still doing pretty well. Here's a pic or 2...
