Can you tell what it is yet?  Before the hair emerges it is still possible to determine sex.

The first signs of a calyx tend to be longer and skinnier than that of a Male.

They will look very similar at first, so don't do anything until you know for sure, but I've gotten to the point of being able to identify sex after the 1st day of preflower growth.  The male tends to have a different texture look than the calyx, which tends to look more smooth and uniform.  The stamen tends to have vertical lines that can be seen if you look hard enough.  They aren't completely rounded either, because where the visible "lines" are on the stamen, ridges tend to form and they almost take on the shape of a walnut if that helps at all...  Anyways now that i've confused you with my stoned rant and weak attempt at getting you to visualize my description, I'm still awaiting pictures!

no man, they look like extremely healthy plants to me. very good job so far with the nutes and watering etc.

you see how dense the growth is right at the very top but the new branches growing from the axial buds further down the plant are much smaller? that's because you have more light, but still not enough :wink:

I'm just trying to help you hit maximum potential. you clearly have a green thumb, but you'll never see your maximum capability with just 2 CFL's per plant :smile:

I was thinking maybe buying a 150 watt HPS lighting system and using that for the main source of light? Is it worth the $90? If I bought this I would be using the cfls I have now for the lower parts of the plant.

You will be glad you got the hps. Although you should go for a little more watts. But you will def. see a difference with that HPS. I say do it up!

Get the HPS... 150 is good because it will stay cooler than most CFL setups.  Keep the HPS over the top and use the Flouros for side supplemental lighting to maximize the lower growth that usually suffers slightly.  Plus the HPS will stop that stretch real quick.  Like Harry said though, very healthy looking and great green color.  Maybe a little more N, but that could just be the color tint of the photos.

I'm think of getting another fertilizer. Fox Farm Big Bloom? any good results with this fertilizer? The reason i want to get this because the buds that are growing are getting any fatter or lush they may have went to s slow growth. I think that being potbound is the reason that growing has slowed so much? I'll try to get some pics up to show you guys what I'm talking about

Beastie Bloomz looks good, But could the slow growth be because of being potbound? I know Miracle gro sucks but I need some soil to transplant and theres no other choice around here. Anyone know of a simi-decent miracle gro soil that is good for roots to continue to grow with ease and any pointers with transplanting 2-4 gallons of soil with out severe damage? Thanks guys for helping out. :thanx:

haha, I feel like such a dick saying it again but slow growth= not enough light. I've done some grows under CFL, and the switch to a full intensity HPS system was astounding to me. I actually saw growth of up to an inch a day during veg.

What about flowering Harry?  Did flowering under CFL's take longer?

I always thought that it would be like a week longer.

Never tried though, and don't plan to.  My 200w of CFL is about to be replaced and/or added to an HPS.

I'm really looking forward to HID.

My MH owned CFL's for vegging larger plants!  And the heat was minimal.

never got the chance to run the same strain twice until just now, it was always just runs from seed.

I guess it might though, my last CFL grow was a pretty stout indica and it took about 9.5 weeks to finish, so it seems possible, but I can't say for sure if that was due to the CFL's or the strain.
