How long to show sex?

HSA · Nov 29, 2009

I have two A/G's with twelve seedlings planted on Oct. 5th from seeds. All are healthy. I switched to 12 on 12 off lighting and floral nutes about a week ago. They're all still happy but there are no signs of pistils yet.

I want to separate a couple of pairs of boys and girls for future seed production and let the rest of the girls do their thing. Any idea how long before I can expect to see gender identities? Most look like text book girls, at least in the text book I have.

I'm using the upgrade hood and arm. The hood has three flat CFL's and they've worked great in the past. Hank

As a post script to my post on the plants exhibiting their sex, it took a couple of weeks before I could even guess but then it took a magnifying glass and I still couldn't be sure. A friend suggested that I try a 10 on/14 off light schedule with the Techna- Flora flowering recipe I'm using and they literally blossumed. I just separated the males, and just in time I think. Hank
