    Default Why so long to show sex?

    So my plants are like a little over 5 weeks old itll be 6 weeks this friday..and they still havent shown sex so im scared to put them in flower due to seeds and shit. i was wondering if LST'ing them slowed down the process of showing sex? or does it sometimes take this long. lights been on 18/6 for 2 weeks no. thinking about going 16/8..wud tht help show sex?

    I'm pretty sure it's 'cause you're on an 18/6 lightcycle.. 16/8 might help, 12/12 would def help

    18/6 is fine.

    Once there are alternating nodes, you're close.

    Just pretend you're married. You'll see sex eventually. LOL

    I wouldn't mess with the light cycles.

    they should show before then especially if they are at 6 weeks already. the plant will show sex once its fully matured even with a veg light cycle.

    unless they are an autoflowering strain, they will not show sex till a couple weeks under 12/12 light cycle(This is the very best cycle for flowering(sexing))

    P.S. This is not always exactly the case, but 90% of the time it is

    12/12 will push the plant into flowering.. 18/6 will let the plant show it's sex naturally, it's gonna be alot bigger though
