    When will they be ready?

    Hi. I planted these three on 29th March. One is auto-feminised blueberry Northern Lights. One is Kush and one is from Bob Marleys house in Jamaica. I think the Marley one is male as it has a dark coloured stem. The other two are doing quite well but I cant believe that after this amount of time they still aren't ready. They have spent maybe two months under a fairly weak red and blue LED light and the rest of it outside in an opaque greenhouse in a miserable not very warm summer. I put them in a shadier area about a month ago to try and force upon the flowering phase which seems to be working but it is just taking a lot longer than I thought at the start. Do any of you experts have an idea as to how long these may be from being able to be harvested?? Thanks for your advice, this is my first foray into this.

      I can't see your pictures very well but you must not have an auto or you would be smoking bud in less than 3 months .your going on 4 or 5 months.

          Hi. The NL is deffo Auto-Fem, the Kush was a freebie seed and the BobM was from some stuff I found in Jamaica. So yes only one is deffo Fem. Any idea how long it could be? Do they look ok and healthy? I give them normal water maybe twice a week and some nutrient growth mixed with water once every other week.

            Need photos from close-up so we can really see what's up.

            I'm only a beginner but I'm pretty sure that just being in the shade isn't enough to force flowering -- photos should get 12 hours of consistent and total darkness every day (or night), although they'll flip with less when left to their own devices (mine are in the sun almost all day and started flowering a week or so ago, when days got close to 14 hours long).

            I think the only thing you're doing by keeping them in the shade is decreasing your yield. Especially the auto -- light schedule has no effect on her flowering and less light = less bud.

          Hey Mofo, daas69 is right if it was a auto you should be smoking on it yesterday. I think it was stunted, not a auto, or not good genetic. As far as the "photo" seeds go a outdoor grow depending on your longitude and latitude will start flowering/sexing in the fall (shorter days), my suggestions would be treat your auto like a regular seed and see if it flowers in fall, #2) your pots look small if they were mine I'd transplant.
          good luck!

            Hey BBMF you also need to feed them like a little every other day or two not a little every 2 weeks, they would starve, also make sure your PH is good. Good Luck yes give them more light.

                Is a dark stem an indication of it being a male?

                  Differing color of leaves or stems or even bud generally is only caused by ph or temperature

                Im pretty sure stem color doesnt indicate sex atleast iv never seen that iv had plenty of females grow outside with purple or red stems and give me fantastic bud by the end
