U really cant tell till further down the road
if u wan u can take a clone and flip the clone to flower to find out sex of plant
 
i dont know how to clone,im a newbie grower.plus i dont have the source of income to get anything i need to clone,im dirt poor barely scraping by to get what i needed for this setup.but how would i clone?
 
and by telling from the pics its not in flowering yet,is it close?i put it in soil at the end of november.so its going on about 3 months right now

That's a good sign, but not diffinative. Look up uncle bens topping thread under advanced techniques. That will help you understand how and where to top.

To flower all i do is switch light cycle from 18/6 to 12/12
u can bloom her now if u like
some growers only use about a.month of veg and flipem
to clone all i do is take a cutting
if u dont have any root stimulant or clone gel or powder
u can use the water method
wer u place ur cutting in a bottle of water til about half of stem under water for a week or so
ive never tried this method myself
i like the clone gel it speeds up the process and helps ur chances of clone rooting
look up cloning on youtube
try poor mans clonning
 
ok and what about my lighting?the lights i have right now are only 2700 k,i cant really find 6500 k anywhere i am.what is the proper wattage and proper k for veg and flower

If u cant buy the 6500k
just flip her since ur using 2700k already, which is the spectrum needed to bloom
just flip her with the lights u have now
 
yes i understand that,i was told to have a light on every possible bud i get that way more light equals more bud.sucks have low wattage with these new energy saving bulbs with low wattage equivalent.and my strain is just some home grown stuff just some reggie

U might want to get a few more to bloom her the more light the better
You might wanna get a bunch more cause as I said earlier, that plant is gonna be huge till the stretch is done and with cfl's you will need the light penetration on a tall plant

The plant needs it's leaves to produce the energy that will produce the bud. Do you really think it spends all those weeks putting all the energy into growing them lovely big leaves just for someone to yank them off ? If a plant could face palm mj would do it often
