What type of soil, if any, are you using. Are you feeding them nutrients? What is your water source bud? See if we can nail down a solution for you.

Damn it looks like I might have to put down one of my babies. U-K#4 has what looks like balls and they have been getting bigger day by day. What a shame, but on the up side it looks like my U-K#5 my lst is a female. Baby white pistols started to sprout out of her 2day. So I'm really happy about that. Last but not least is U-K#3, this plant has not shown one sign of which sex it is!! Oh well only time will tell!!!
So far 3 out of 5 is not bad!!
to the Budda Godz for granting me such beautiful ladies.
Let's see some pics for us pic whores bro!

MI, are you thinking of saving any of the pollen? 3/5 ain't bad at all. 
crustedfilth, dude, i feel your pain. i had a pile of seeds that were no-go's. it was a heat issue. then i killed 8 plants from pH toxicity. i'm attempting #3 too. best of luck. and throw a link in your sig if you have a journal going.
*positive vibes*

I'm using the soil from my veggie garden which is clay, compost, etc. Everything grows awesome in there so I figured buds would be no problem. I'm giving the plants MG every couple weeks, and my water source is collected rainwater. I keep the lights about a foot from the tops of my plants.
I also have a vaporizer running at night when I have the lights off. Its in a well ventilated room also. I water every couple days wtih just enough water to keep things moist.
newsisnoise, sorry I don't have a journal up. I just joined over here.
Hey MIgrower sorry if I jacked your journal. LOL wasn't my intent.
I'd love a solution since I can't drive anywhere to pick up a bag. Damn near blind and I gotta have someone drive my sorry ass around. LOL
The clay (Michigan Clay) tends to absorb water and releases is back quite slowly. It also has tons of minerals in it, so you could be providing lots more nutrients than you think. We hold off on nutrients until the plant and it's root system are well established. Most often, there are plenty of nutrients already in the soil for younger plants, so adding nutes is not neccesary for the first 2-3 weeks or more, depending on you soil. Rain water tends to be slightly on the acidic side, around 6.5 to 6.1, which should be fine for soil grows. You want your soil to be airy, so the roots can breath and absorb oxygen and CO2. Sorry about the thread jack MI-Grower. Just trying to help the fellow Michigander out.

Can you put up a pick of the one you think is male. I would like to see what it looks like. Keep up the good work. Your low budget grow is an inspiration. I spent a ton of money, and really shouldn't have. My grow is just to damn complicated now
I'll post some pics as soon as the lights come back on, that will be later 2nite!! My camera is not the best, but I'll do my best to show you bro. Thanks for ur kind comment about my cheap grow. Just try to keep it simple, and ur plants will reward you.
Thanks for that info Mmmmick, I was planning on getting rid of it as soon as I'm sure. I have never seen a male plant b4, but it dont look like my other 3 ladies at all. Thanks for stopping by bro..
Let's see some pics for us pic whores bro!
Yes GMT I"ll post some photos later 2nite bro. I dont want to wake my ladies if you know what I mean. I anit mad at ya, do what you do.

I am very greatful for every1's helpful hints and comments. Looks like {MG} has worked real good for me.
I'll try to take some close up shots later 2night but I dont know how clear they will be. My camera is not the best.

Do you think you could outline your feeding schedule for me? I know you talked about it in passing before, but i'd like to get a solid schedule.
Thanks man.

Thanks sonzor!! Yes they have came a long way over the past 2 months!!
Thanks for the comment bro, I hope they do fill in. I cant wait!!
No problem bro,
I feed my plants nutes on every Sunday and just water as needed. I use {MG} so I mix up a full dose, this mixes in with 2gallons of water and I divide it up between them and add water as needed. I then wait 3 or 4 days, if the soil is not dry just add water and repeat on Sunday!! That's about it bro. Hope this helps you out.
