HERE SHE IS. Technically we'll be 6 weeks from seed tomorow (sunday). Been in 12/12 for 1 weeks and 1 day. Just switched from Aerogarden nutes to XNUTRIENTS. Wondering if anybody can tell sex? I THINK she's a fem, looks like I can see pistils and hairs (maybe its wishfull vision.) Also, I noticed when changing water/nutes today it looked like a few of the top leaves had moisture...do plants sweat? And, should I trim anything?
When I started 12/12 she was about 6 1/2 inchs, now she's about 10 inchs. Roots seem to look good to my untrained eye.
comments and tips are appreciated
 
Cheif: a lot of what you're asking depends on the strain you're growing. When almost any strain starts to flower you can usually expect a growth spurt. This is why you want the upgraded seven holes models of the Aerogardens for what we're growing.

How many plants do you have in there? You might want to consider pruning some of the bigger fan leaves to get more light down to the lower portions of your plants and aimed reflectors can get you buds all the way down to the planting deck.

Roots should be free of odor and I like them to be white. This is where you check for algae. A cap full of hydrogen peroxide in your weekly nutes change can help keep it that way. Make sure your unused holes are sealed off. Light entering the reservoir can cause real headaches.

If they grow hanging balls it's a boy but if they grow upright white hairs at the upper nodes it's a girl. If you get both on separate plants you have the capability of producing seeds for future crops and if you're growing an expensive strain that can be a blessing. If you get balls and hairs on the same plant you have a problem.

How do you like your X-nutrients? Do I see some yellow patches in your pictures?

So far it looks good. Don't forget to change your nutes weekly and adjust your pH daily. I hope this helps. Hank

I dont think mine looks like that.

@HSA: Only 1 plant, since I have the small 3 pod I didnt want to have space problems. Im glad I did to because I wouldnt have root room in the res for more than 1, I hope she doesnt outgrow it as it is.
Im not sure how I like XNUTRIENTS yet, just started. Seems easy to use though, I like that
