    Some strains show sex at 4-5 weeks from seed. But you'd need a jewellers loupe to spot them. keeping them in small pots until they show will allow you to germinate more seeds and save on space whilst vegging. You can also change the light cycle to 12/12 to speed up the process until they show and then put them back in veg.

    The mother won't produce males but there's always a chance of hermies even more so when using feminised seeds. As you plan to use regs you've less chance of hermies.

    The idea of keeping a mum is to pick the best of the bunch and preserve it. You'd be better flowering them off first mate..

    Don't go 12/12 from seed give them a couple of weeks to become established in veg then flick the switch.

    I 12/12 all my regs from day 1 above the soil
    The plant goes through a kinda veg stage as it matures n does not flower right away fir a few weeks
    Once I see a pre flower I top the plant n put her back into veg and she grows right away no flowers or bud on her if u get them at the earliest sign
    Use a Loupe fir checking sex.


    Mines sit on the corner of flower room not even under canopy while they sex. This ones a female incredible bulk x sour banana chiesel gong back into veg
