First grow - sexing

So I'm 7 days into flowering my very first crop and I think it's time to get you experts to help me figure out what sex my plants are.

I have 4 babies and I'm pretty sure #2 and #4 are female. #1 and #3 I'm not too sure about though. They look like they are either male or haven't shown their sex yet.

If you pros wouldn't mind weighing-in I'd appreciate it.

Oh yeah. I'd also like to know how long I can keep #1 and 3 in with my females before running the risk of pollenation.

still have time... wont' be probably a few more weeks until pollen could be released. I'd hold off a little more in case you have some hermies (I like to keep hermie seeds)

#1 and #3 are both males. Depending on what you were planning on doing you should just pull them.

When I checked on them this morning it was much more obvious that the males were in fact male... Took 'em out back and did what I had to do.

It was tough

So now i'm down to 2 plants and I'm wondering if it is possible to cut clones / root clones form a flowering mother. I've got a lot of extra room in my closet and I'd like to fill it up is i can!

Hmmm. Even if I did clone from one of my flowering plants I'd need to keep the clones under at least 18 hours of light until they root sufficiently, wouldn't I?

Yeah, the problem with cloning flowering plants is all the energy is in the buds, so there is nothing really there to feed what you are trying to root. Plus, your clone since it is flowering will be really small and not produce many buds.

Looks like I'll just be flowering these two ladies then.

Thanks a lot for the help everyone!

One last newbie question though:

The plants were 6 weeks old and about 10" when i started flowering. The strain is shiskaberry x shiskaberry and I've got them under a little more than 300W of CFLs with various spectrums. Any estimates on what I should expect for my yield?
