Give them time. Preflowers are pretty iffy. I've suspected males that turned out to be very nice females.

watch out on the one that had the snapped stem for male flowers...it has a higher chance of going hermy 
Nice grow

Glad to see the light back up and running!
And I wouldn't worry about that snapped stem at all. I've done that a few times, they've healed up without a problem, no hermies to speak of.

Making the most of my free supporter account while I can, so here's some pictures 
I know it doesn't look like much to you guys but they have exploded since that 400 came back on, and they instantly got alot thirstier.
I'm leaving for 10days over December/January and I'm kinda worried that I'm not gonna be here during what could be near the end of flowering, but I'm still not quite sure when I want to switch to 12/12, I'm kind of playing it by ear, so far, and since I found out I was leaving the state I've been freaking out about what to do with them while I'm gone. If anyone has any suggestions please post them  . Or hopefully I can find a friend to come water and take care of them *cough cough* Inbred *cough cough*

if watering is a problem my dads mate said this is a dodgy fix, get a 2L coke bottle and put a pin prick in the top and bottom and it should come out really slowly. dont take my word though, this guy looked like a raggier* version of cheech n chong.
*i think i made a new word
there looking heaps good man

I have definitely seen Jorge Cervantes do the pin hole in a big water bottle tek for an outdoor guerrilla grow, but I'm not sure about it covering a week. I'm no expert by any means, though.
T-Rex--They are looking very good and healthy. The low stress training and super cropping seem to be working well for you, as well. Your plants are about the same size as mine(maybe a tad smaller), but your stems are thicker. I've had a fan blowing on my girls constantly, too. Maybe yours' are thicker as a result of the super cropping? That's my guess anyway. Regardless, you're doing great! Thanks for the great pics and log. Reading about others' experiences has been helping me work the kinks out of my own grow a lot faster.

Yea I was thinking about installing a dripline somehow, but I'm more worried about it not getting any nutes for a week, and starving or something.
Thanks for the replies! yea that snapped stem definitely thickened up that particular stem, I didn't get a shot of the others because they are shrouded in leaves, and I can't see them very well, I'm actually thinking about doing some pruning to let more light into the undergrowth, because right now its completely shaded. I'm not feeding them particularly heavy, they get one full strength feeding a week and they seem to be liking that so I don't really want to over do it.
Over all I'm pretty happy with my progress, I'm thinking about flowering in about 2-4weeks

Update - Day fiddySorry for flooding with updates, but lots has happened today! I killed my first male today, it was hard but I knew I had to do it. I found a little ballsack hanging from a node and I ripped the whole thing out. The two remaining females (I'm pretty sure but not 100%) were transplanted into bigger pots today, I used Inverted's method of shaking the root clump loose before planting them again, and then they received some pretty heavy LST in prep for the new growth While I had them out of the pots I took the chance to prune some of the undergrowth to help airflow, there was lots of stuff hidden by all the bigger leaves and they weren't going to be anything special, so I snipped them. Now when I was transplanting the plant with the damaged stem, I kinda accidentally topped the plant about 5" above where it was damaged. This plant has pretty taken alot of damage, and I'm worried she might herm, but in saying that, if the worst thing to come out of this was a few seeds in my bud, I'll take that happily. This was the plant I already topped by accident, so the fact that its happened twice is kind of embarrassing on my part. I swear, I do try to take care of them!  so now I'm expecting 3tops which is not what I planned at all, but I took the 5" cutting and dipped it into rooting formula and put it into a pot of soil and perlite, so hopefully I'll be back up to 3 plants again Male:   And the rest:     Topped, again  The clone  Thanks for stopping by!

It was a good idea to seriously agitate those roots. When I get something that root bound I will take a utility knife and run it down the sides of the root mass. Sure, it causes damage. But my plants always seem to do twice as well after a heavy score than if not agitated at all.
This would also be a great time to introduce some mycorrhizal fungi if you have not already. Even if you had applied it earlier, it would be a good time for a second application since heavy soil disruption can stunt or kill beneficial fungi.

I am not a cannabis grower. I find the cannabis growers to be the most open to experimenting and sharing out of all of the different botany groups I enjoy. I frequently use the suggestions that I find to apply to own organic gardening and food production.

plus when the roots are rootbound the can block other roots going through, then you can get circling and girdling, agitating is definitely benefeficial
im fairly sure i saw 2 fems when i was over there, they will love that transplant
