I have 3 big bud plants about 2 week old. I want to grow 12 plants.
I wanted to sex the plants and hopefully 1 will be female then i want to grow it big enough to take 12 cuttings all at once for my final grow,

please can any one give me advice

I have 1 big room with 2x600 sodium and a second small room with fluros.

Would i be better vegging the plants big and hope that there is a female in there by taking one cutting of each and flowering it . If I was to do this i would have to flower the clones under fluros as thats all I have in my second room

There are lots of ways to go forward from here. Here is one idea:

Why dont you take a load of clones off the plants you have - label them up and stick the originals into flower in your main room.

When the originals show their sex - you can throw away the corresponding clones and keep the rest - which will obviously be female.

Grow these females under your flouros and select the best 4 from them. Ditch the rest. Then veg these 4 until they are about 8 to 10 inches and bushy.

Then about 4 weeks before the originals in the main chamber are ready - you can take a load of clones from the 4 vegging plants under the flouros. Then by the time you harvest - your 12 new clones - all female - will be ready for immediate transplant into the main room.

Have fun

If the 3 origionals were put into flower straight after they have had a lot of cuttings taken from them would they produce a good yeild or not?

Would it be possibble to grow these plants big enough to take 12 cuttings from each , then i could sex my main plants while the 36 cuttings will be under the fluros, When I find the female throw the rest and put the rest of the clones in with it and flower them also this way I will get at least 1 plant finished and 11 others on the way in a shorter time span as I will no need to create clones twice. Does this make sense

Please help

my plants have been under 600w sodiums 24hrs a day for 2 weeks.
One of the plants has grown bushy as fuck
But the bottom leaves are pointing downwards and curling under at the bottom

Are they ok
