No the only way is to wait for it to flower, if it takes longer than 6 weeks then switch to 12/12.🌱👍

no mate ; until they start flowering in more than 14 hours of light after 35 to 45 days roughly ; they are autos or else they photo-period

Sadly no. You can tell if it starts to flower under a 18/6 light schedule thou. Happy growing!

Cold night temperatures
We are heading into some cold overnight temperatures later this week. Low 40's likely, with daytime 55-60. No rain expected, or not much at least, but unseasonably chilly and cloudy. This one needs time, however. Should I cover it, drag it inside for overnight.. suggestions?

Too Early to Determine Sex?
Hey guys, I'm still really new to sexing my plants. This is only my second time. Can anyone tell me if these are male or female? Or is it too early to tell? I cant see any balls yet!🙏 Plant 1 is a little further along than plant 2. I know the pictures are kind of blurry. Thanks

Virgin CBG "Pop" My Peppercorn
Ever grown out a CBG plant before? When should I harvest, mostly cloudy, some / no amber? CBG is said to be the mother cannabinoid, if it degrades, "amber trichomes" will it still be CBG? or will it turn into THC/CBD/CBN/CBC or any of the other many cannabinoids? Cheers, m0use

Flowering/Preflowering/Showing Sex in Vegative stage?
Today I noticed all my outdoor plants have pistils after being 3-5weeks outside. Is this normal and will they continue veg due to increasing days/temps? Also, could this be reversed with additional light? Currently in the 7th week of Spring with 14h light and 13h sunrise.

Are (constantly) high daytime temperatures a huge problem in flower?
My day temperature since turing my light up to max during flower are reaching 29-30c | 84.2 - 86f, while the daytime RH is at roughly 40% - 50%. Is the high temperature something to be concerned about? pics 1 and 2 are the exact same data as pics 3 and 4, just set to c/f each.

So my plant has grown pretty big in last few weeks and theres just alot of leaves ans nodes that i think are useless to the plant because they barely get any light, and bending them towards the light doesnt work because they grow too slow. CAN and/or SHOULD i cut them off ?

Is my Lemon Haze a indica or a sativa?
Lemon shining silver Haze by rqs is supposed to be a heavy sativa from what I read they tried to make the ultimate sativa. My plant seems to be maturing at the same pace as all my indicas. It is also short, with fatish leaves. Do I have an indica phenotype or will it show in time
