Yess she is only showing you her sex but not flowering so nothing to worry about, and by doing it do not forget to disinfect your tools with alcohol a clean work is always better. Have a nice grow, good luck! 🙌

How and when to train?
Hi, first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?

Are my 2 auto’s at a stage where I should be topping them?
Are my plants at the stage where I should be either topping or trying out some LST? First time grower here, so not sure if I should be doing any training, just to see how it goes. Any help would be super appreciated!

NL #5 x Haze (70% sativa) height control
At what height would you recommend initiating 12/12 to prevent this strain from over-stretching after topping each plant twice to produce four tops? I hope to finish them at 3-4ft. Would I get away starting 12/12 at 9-11 inches?

When to start 12/12
Hi people. My plants are on vegetation day 26 and are 8 inches tall. My tent setup can give them room for 15 more inches for a total of 23 inches height from soil to top. So, when do you think I should start 12/12 to maximize the plants height and yield? Thanks.

To top or not to top. That is the question.
Hey Growers. Looking for some advice. Would you suggest flowering next week-10 days with 7 big tops/plant or top and veg 1-2 weeks having 14/plant and maybe Scrog. This will be in my 2x4x5 with the XS2000. Thanks in advance for the help. Happy Growing 🌱
