How to make it show sex?

[nucknfuts]

So there's a plant about 8 weeks old. 60/40 soil perlite. been in 12/12 for about 2 wks now and still no sign of sex. Stretched about an inch. Thats it.

under 175MH. I know, this might delay flower but to each his own, and after 2 wks was hopin to see a pistil.

Bagseed, so who knows what strain, though its looks very Indica . Was hopin it would at least harvest sooner. Now this. Been givin a sad mix of either Miracle Grow 15-30-15. Veg was Shultz 10-15-10.

nutes are all around tough to get, so whatever variation of nutes that are seen are purchased. As you can see there's not much.

Is there anything else that can be done to get this thing to flower. Theres no light leaks. Even if there was, It'd at least be a hermie by now.

Was plannin on feeding today and giving some epsom salts just for the kickstart, but before that, any suggestions?

I know everyone has a habit of reading and moving along so I'll try to be patient until someone has the urge to respond.

just give it some time as long as it is in 12/12 it will show sex sooner or later dont worry about it theyll put out sooner or later

56 days veg and 2 weeks of 12/12 should have shown sex a week ago. Is your room completely dark? Also if this is your first grow you may not be seeing it. I am guessing it is probably female. If it were a male it should have clusters of balls by now. Can you snap a pic?

the Mg and schultz ferts are def. NOT on your side. that crap is for ornamentals, and outside. (somehow some seem to make it work, but I've only seen failures)

If u have access to a grow store give them a healthy dose of flower ferts....something like "fox farm" "Big Bloom" and/or "tiger Bloom)...while your there get some good soil like "ocean forest"

I just hate ta tell ya that what your doing is kind of messed up, and you'll be lucky if it works out.

www.thegrowstore.com has what u need if its not available in your area.

online purchasing is against my motto. Nutes, as i explained earlier, are tough to come by. only things around are flower shops, and they dont get the hint when i say "I'm tryin to grow REALLY BIG TOMATOES". whatever.

Not my first, first, grow but I have a sad history. Sad Sad Sad history. I'm sure those REALLY curious could just look up my old posts. SAD I TELL U!

But yea, 6 weeks veg, 2 wks 12/12. who knows. I'm almost ready to give up on this whole zany idea except Another plant just started gettin all purple stalk in veg. Hopin it spreads to leaves and other part of the plant so...

But yea, im about ready to seel this hallide and call it quits.

I saw pistols on my ak-47 after 3-4 weeks veg (from seed) under 400hps. I think hps really kicks the sexual maturaty into gear... but i'm not an expert at all.

I think I have roughly 1yr of growing under my belt, but again...sad sad history. Only thing I smoked cultivated was a friend's Blueberry that was solid Purple (I just wish he woulda cured it . And some Kali (sp?) mist. All under Halide too. But yea, I by chance got my hands on a Halide, some nice jamaican genetics, and took it from there.

I did notice on my last attempt, my one male showed his balls after only a few days of 12/12 so im keepin my fingers crossed. lights on in 4hrs so I'll get back to lookin with the magnifyer and try to get my hands on a digi camera for the curious folks. I'd prefer to do a grow diary so people could help me out along the way anyway...
