      The thing about the dark period for flowering, it needs to be absolutely dark. No light coming in under a door, no light creeping in the edges of the windows, no room lights, nothing. Failure to control any light leaks to your plants may result in the plants turning hermy and causing the crop to get seeded. Outdoors, you will need roughly 60 days when the daylight hours are 12-13 or less. Cannabis is naturally a photoperiod plant, meaning, the plants have a biological response to light hours. In this plant, it triggers flowering.

        You are all legends, cheers for the help. I'll let them be and see what happens. I have a suspension that a few of them are males. It's very weird as they are all the same age and a month ago I noticed pollen sacks on one of the plants, so I killed it immediately. Why would one of the plants grow pollen sacks a month ago and they are all the same age and these ones haven't?

          It happens, this year I had 4 males (BB3s) and used 3 of them to make seed, each one flowered alone and as he played out another flowered up, by number 4 I had enuf seed!

            Like I said, as daylight hours peak at the solstice and then begin to get shorter as autumn arrives that's the trigger for the plant to flower.
            I'm at 35 degN from the equator and usually see sex by the beginning of August. That should be February in the Southern hemisphere.

              This is an update... I'm assuming they are males right? Are they Pollan sacks?
