these arent in the same grow area this is an old grow area but the plant on the left which is the one im flwering is only about 3 in bigger now then in the picture and its drooping now. and i have 8 100 w cfl soft whites on it now instead of daylight i switched them . so it will take about 2 weeks ruffly to show me its sex. cuz i want to clone her hopefully so i can get some more started cuz im new to cloning but maid myself a bubbleponic cloning system..show pics of that soon...

I dont know how well it will do under cfls for flowering. I would use an hps light personaly. Good luck. femals take a bit longer than the males to preflower. Males tend to show first

i have all that hps and stuff just dont have ne where to really grow it the best. im at home with the folks so thats how it is until i move out which should be quite soon! but i can go ahead and clone tonite right...it will be ok? and when i clone if you could answer this question i have do i leave them in darkness for 24hr then put them under light or can i just put them straight into light right after i clone them? going into bubbleponic cloner i made myself.

hey i got a question. maybe you guys can answer it for me.i want to start from seed with 24 hrs of light for the 1st 2wks,the 2nd 2wks 16on/8off,then on the 5th wk start flowering for 6wks straight 16off/8on, or would 12/12 be better. but anyway that's 10 wks from start to finish. do you think that might work?
(by the way its strickly bagseed)
