Thanks for dropping in, and good luck with your grow! If you start or have a grow journal please can you send me a link? Be intresting to see another lowryder grow :D

Your lowryder looks good.

Much better than mine, I've made too many mistakes - used LEDs, overfertilized, underfertilized, used wrong soil. Learning. Hopefully back on track now.

Good luck!

Can you go by the hight? lol. They have that many leaves now it's really hard to see the stalk at all is there any other way i can tell what sex they are maybe?

well boys grow faster than girls normaly, taller and leggyer. The girls tend to stay shorter and more bushylike. I could be wrong , it was just a guess.

Thanks for the opinion was thinking the same thing, but wasn't sure how acurate going by that was, guess i'll just have to wait lol.

I hope so, hoping it doesn't turn them male though by stressing them out! I'm hoping if i change the light shedule they will show what sex they are sooner, fingers crossed. The tallest of the two plants does have 2 white hairs coming off it right at the top, but know where else. Dam camrea isn't good enough to take a pic though.

Think i'm going to have lights off from 12 till 6am, should really check my timer is still working lol.

I was wondering is it possible there taking so long to sure what sex they are becuase i havn't used any nutes yet? Just a thought that's all. Maybe i'm just inpaitent lol.

they will be fine, they prob will grow more now.

I dont think it will be a problem giving them some dark time and a bit of a rest for everything. I stand by my guess on sex, shame the pics arent a bit clearer. Keep it up:D

The biggest of my two plants that a couple of days ago i could just see 2 white hairs sticking out at the very top of it, but now it has 2 more! About half way down these are are really visable though and diffently look like white hairs coming out the stalk on either side quiet long too at least 1cm and i couldn't even see them yeserday. Not getting my hopes up too high yet at this stage though. What do people think? Sorry tryed yet again to take a close up pic but no luck still couldn't make it out.

The timer i had my light on did my head in ticking so that was soon unpluged lol. Decided i'd rather turn them on and off myself than have to put up with that. So Today was my first day of my plants being 18/6. Due to me having to turn them on and off by hand i had to change when they went off. So lights are off from 6pm till 12pm. Have no idea how they are cos i ovisously i havn't checked them yet since there still in the dark. Took some pics just before i switched the lights off though. The last pic is of the bigest plants stalk where the white hairs are you can't really pick them out though.
