Long time smoker first time grower here again

Out of the 13 \ 14 plants going, one this morning appears to have sings of pre-flowering, I will get a pick posted so I can get some feedback, from what I have read and attempted to understand, it is more than likely a male, I say that because it has shown its signs early on in the process. I really do not have a clue though, what I do know is - nute burn on a few plants, last night I flushed them all with just water of course the PH adjusted - run off is 5.7 - 5.8, temps are pretty stable in my setup, 78 - 80.

I also have 6 clones going now, all just attempts to understand that process, live or die I truly do not care, they are cloned off of the Hermie, figured it best to play with things that I truly do not care about, learn and move forward from that point. What I do know is I have had zero luck in rock wool and great luck clipping them and putting them into coco and rice hulls, I have a starter solution I use, also by David's grow, I put them in a humid dome. Seems when I attempt the rock wool they just rote, no signs ever of rooting, I also have root gel, again same process straight into coco \ rice hulls they appear much happier. I guess time will tell though, they could die off as well.

Other updates, I have ordered seeds finally, 3 shipments, 3 different seed banks, now I wait and see what arrives and what does not, depending on that outcome I will know whom to do my ordering from moving forward. None of the orders were big at all - 5 - 10 seeds from each plus whatever freebies they through in. Growing in a 4x4 those should keep me going for awhile. I have the jardin twin, I sprout and grow in the top part which I have separated sitting on a table, the bottom part is were they will go once they grow up and need more space.

Most of what I ordered what auto - fems, no real reason other than plant - grow - smoke, I like that process. Each order of course has come with a variety of free seeds, all fems so they say. I will grow 4 auto's at a time and 2 fems, watch and learn.

Questions for the pro's, all the babies are in 1 gal buckets now, coco and rice hulls, David's Grow simply path the full line plus cal\mag+, at what point and time do I need to move them into larger buckets, which will be 3 gal smart pots. I ask this because I truly can not put 13 plus 3 gal pots in a 4x4 tent. I was hoping they would show there sex soon so I could eliminate those that show me balls.

I am not looking to harvest pounds, just enough to keep me happy and eating chips. Hopefully 4 auto's will give me a few ounces of love and joy.
