Early sexing

[EugeneDebs420]

I recall seeing someone post about flipping to 12/12 for a day or 2 in veg to get preflowers. Just need to know how to work that.

[ReikoX]

That was me, I’m doing it now. At about six nodes, give then two nights of 12/12, then return to normal 18/6. Within a week you should see pre-flowers.

[EugeneDebs420]

How many nodes?

[Papalag]

Dope, gonna throw my Eutierrias in the flower tent for a couple days in probably a couple days. 4 nodes so far.

Set to watching, hopefully to see your results.

[ReikoX]

I already demonstrated it on my thread. Here is a recap for you.

@ReikoX

The GFOG are about ready for 12/12 for two days.

@ReikoX

I squeezed the GFOG into the flower room last night. They should be getting their first 12 hour of darkness today. They are looking pretty green and healthy, especially compared to my last two grows.

@ReikoX

The GFOG are back from their two day, two night vacation in the flower room. I should see pre-flowers within 7-10 days.

@ReikoX

The Grass Fire OG are starting to show sex as planned. I culled three definite males last night. It looks like there will be two more males and, hopefully, the other three are female. These need to be transplanted something fierce. I’ve been feeding them some KNF inputs, mainly WSC, FPJ and FAA but they are still lacking a bit. I gave them some trace minerals and turned the lights down a bit to see if that doesn’t help the new growth green up a bit.

Fuck where was this two months ago lol.I’ve got three I’m playing the waiting game on right now

How important is the six nodes part? Like say some cool, funny, and handsome guy did a quadline and at 5 nodes a long time ago. Is he beat?

[ReikoX]

Nah, it’s mainly a way to judge maturity. You could do it now. It’s just a gentle nudge to show sex.

[EugeneDebs420]

I’m giving mine a bit more time. Think my flower tent would fry them yet.

[Slick1]

I’m doing that tonight. Planned on making some colloidal tomorrow anyway so it’ll be ready in case they’re both ladies. Appreciate the info!

Here is another thread about this technique.

Sexing Conundrum : Solved

Hey folks. I’ve got some plants on the go in my tent and they are rapidly outgrowing their SOLO cups. I don’t think I want to make any seeds this go round (I might consider doing some selective pollination, but we’ll see) so I want to sex them ASAP. I only have one grow tent so cloning and sexing the clones isn’t an option. My only option is to flip to 12/12 and see what I get. I am thinking it would be best to transplant them all to slightly larger containers, wait another week or so and then f…

Awesome I’ve been wondering this for a while would suck to veg a plant out for two months just to see it’s a male haha in my case

But I’ve only grown autos indoors so far switching my game up after this tent run ! Wich I shall be posting a grow journal

[George]

Great tip , thanks for sharing , that will help to finish with my malediction , always a high rate of them …

[ramblinrose]

I like to top about 2 nodes and then put cuttings in cups of water under a cfl at 12/12. They will sex in a week or so.

[CapnCannabis]

It worked!!Holy shit it works! just spotted those little two white hairs on the tops of one I could have sworn was a male pop up all over it looks like they want to go back to veg quick those hairs are starting to dry back up again.One saved from the chopping block

[Slick1]

While I’m glad to hear confirmation and your success, there’s never a need to second guess anything @ReikoX tells you about anything plant related. Dude uses the force and shit (yup the extent of my Star Wars knowledge right there).
