Seems like you are having those purple/red branches like I am How can you tell (or at least try to guess) if it is a male or a female this soon?

When you flower. Try and double the wattage you got going now.. Less hours more lamps.. I take my babies from 660w-veg and put them in flowing with 2k... This run I have cause its winter and they need the extra heat. but you get the idea.
this is a boy.

By the pre flowers forming where the leave stems meet the main stem. Males form little football shaped flowers. Females look more like a rounded cone (to me, upside down snow cones, or a vase) and have two white hairs coming out. I will put pics up of that as it happens and more male flower pics as they become easier to see.

I still say possible hermi, but those could very well grow some balls and then its a boy. but for sure one or the other, anyways. I do plan on trying to make some seeds on this grow. My plans are to keep my best male and collect pollen.

There are 4 drilled holes in the lid and installed in them are 4 IKEA standard and individually corded sockets , with 4, 14 watt CFL's, 5000 K bulbs. I also lined the cube with aluminum foil. There is a $6 4 inch fan installed in the front and it is sucking air out. There are 5 one inch holes on the opposite side of the cube where air is brought in.

I figured it could not hurt, the closet does not get a lot of fresh air. Besides, the shrooms lived there first.

my shroom experiences have been both relaxing, and mind expanding. I do prefer them over weed somehow, even though I get high constantly.

Day 30
Watered all plants today with pH 6.8 distilled
I trimmed down my two males. Topped them and trimmed all fan leaves. Only 4 small branches remain on each. The idea is to give each fewer places to produce flowers so I don't miss some opening. (I will be attempting to collect pollen)
I pruned lightly and started some training today on the remaining 6 plants. I will get pics up after christmas.
Merry Christmas

Sounds good to me! Smart idea to trim them down making less ballsacks. I'm interested to see how the pollen collecting goes, keep us updated

Day 33
I fed them for the first time today. Half strength FF Grow Big. pH 6.5-6.6 The new growth was starting to turn a lighter shad of green.
The two topped males are starting to take off again.
I murdered #7 today. It just would not stop looking like a "Fake Plastic Tree"
I need to get started on my Carbon Filter because they are very stinky already. They are going to stank!

Day 34
#1-6 are pictured from left to right. I also included another male preflower pic and a pic of my training. #6 is my male
For training, I am simply tying down the tops so the bottom branches can get more light. I will continues this through stretching until the canopy is even or about even. At that point I will let the main shoots continue their upward growth.
I tossed #8. I did not need two males, so I kept the best one.
I got my Carbon filter built. I will post it's results in a day or two.
I am going to start the flowering process in 3-4 days.

Day 41 Flower 5
Bad news first. about 30 min ago the top main stem of #4 broke clean off. I WAS SO MAD! Question? Being 5 days into flowering, will this cause any probs??? Other than delaying this plant.
Good news is that all four remaining plants are showing female flowers!!!
Here are some pics. The first is the broken stem.

Don't worry I did the exact same thing to one of my plants just as they started to flower, and while its not a good thing to do, its not gonna harm it too much. Growth will be stunted for a little bit but you'll just get 2 main tops from that plant

Day 43 Flower 7
Well week one of flowering has ended and not much to see or talk about. Just preflowers at this stage and not that many. Hope week two is more exciting. The damn plants are going to give me a heart attack...
Good news. My fem AK 48 Nirvana seeds came in and they all look healthy!
Pics to come later when there are some flowers to see
