my girl just keeps on growing new branches, does the video also show how to prune the plants to?

I read somewhere online that on the eighth node you can see preflower (indicate sex) with a magnifying glass. I dont know if this is true or not though.

As soon as you switch to 12/12 youll know about 2 weeks (maybe more maybe less)later.

you can preflower in veg if you wrap one intersection of leaf and stalk with paper and tape it so its lightproof. This will fool part of the plant into thinking its flowering and you can preflower them early- the reasoning for doing this is you can sex them earlier and take the males out so the females get more direct light and can spread out better.

Some strains can start flowering in veg mode, but it depends on the strain. Most don't start fully flowering until the switch to 12/12. The reason is that the dark signals the plant to start growing flowers. So you may see some pre-flower looking stuff, but once you switch to 12/12 you will see flowers. You do have to be patient though, it takes some time after 12/12 to really see any buds forming. Hope this helps!
