Hey guys, It's my first grow, I started without sprouting seedlings. I had got seeds from a friend who had a plant turn hermie, I think due to stress!! Are my seedlings gonna be hermies too? Should I switch them to 12/12? I've had them under 18/6 in veg for almost 4 weeks now. Almost all of them have at least 3 nodes by now going on 4th node some on their 5th. But they are really small any idea why?? Really need your guys!! I started low stress training some, and fimmed two at the 2nd node, is that bad for them? Will post more pics if I get any replies. Happy 420 Growing.image.jpg

You really wanna ask yourself, what kind of grow do you want to have, meaning do you want monster plants, or just single cola plants like SOG (judging by the amount of cups you have now). You need to put a little more info on here. And as far as seeds from hermied plants...you wanna make sure that I was due to stress cause if not, you'll be mad that you started this for no reason, but they do tend to be females.

Well due to the amount of space I have to work with (mini fridge) is why I put them is styrofoam cups, is that bad for them? Should I switch to soho plastic cups? Or biodegradable pots? Its my first grow so just trying to get the best feedback and advice. Well take some pics in a bit to show some of my best ones and some I started low stress training and the ones I fimmed. Been trying to read up on some info but thought if get some experienced growers input.

I am not sure how to analyze your question, but I will say that using Styrofoam cups is something I hope you stray away from in the future. Not good for the planet.
What's works best? I need small pots for the space I have to work with. I will be looking for square pots to maximize my space

Solo cups and 12/12 from seed if your space is limited or 4"x4"x6" pots...what kind of lighting do you have ? What strain is it ?

I'm glad people aren't being too mean (as much as I kinda wanna be, but this guy seems non trolly), this doesn't belong in this sections. Not that it's stopped things before here from being irrelevant, this really belongs in the noob section, and this guy needs some homework to be turned in.

That's why I said its my first grow any advice welcomed. ThAnks

If they went herm from stress the seeds will be female and possibly easy to make herm from stress. If they were just herm, chances are the seeds will be too. Can't hurt to try. I'd look into your plant #'s and the law though.. it would blow to get busted doing a larger number of small plants and go to jail for 20 years or w/e other crazy sentence they hand down to you.

Just do it
I did it for a long time never asked or cared what people thought

but I did A LOT OF READING NOT ASKING

when you ask such
noob questions youll get noob answers some not so nice

read lots post little

grow it how ever you can

But if your worried about herms your "training "may be unwanted

I agree with CS, although I have to say that the question about the seeds is one people frequently answer wrong. Some questions the answers are not so straight forward in this community.... a lot of bs that perpetuates and continues and probably will for a long time.

Thanks for the feed back CS. So cut the lst? And sex them now? There all about 3 nodes but only about 4 inches in size! And growing more and more nodes, my lst I did already has them bushing out its seems, and I can see new growth in between the nodes now from lst pics I've seen and what I've read. They are in 12/12 now until I determine their sex now. Will take pics tomorrow morning and show u guys my fimmed ones and lst ones. I'd really like your support on my grow or at least an over look if u can. I will keep updating pics on this post daily until harvest. And thank you too OGEvilGenius.
