Make Or Female?

[Redorchid83]

I am having trouble determining whether my plant is male or female. Can anyone tell on this plant? Switched to a 12/12 cycle on 6/1.

Make

 

[Redorchid83]

So remove it from the room??

The other two are female I’m sure. They don’t have the sacs, but they also don’t look as mature as this one.

male...……. and males typically grow taller and faster than the girls so as to better spread their jizz when the females reach sexual maturity

 

[stutter]

its male. if you dont want seeds remove it from the room

 

[Redorchid83]

I want seeds, he seems to be a very healthy little guy. This is my first grow, so learning as I go.

This is also my first forum, as I had been getting my info from books I bought. Fuckers are expensive

He is definitely bigger

why is there so much real estate between your internodes? that's a lot of useless stem. What type of lighting and what distance are you hanging your lights?. Ideally you want to shorten the distance between nodes to create more bud sites.

if you leave him in there your buds will be filled with seeds, not the best for smoking.
if you can set him up in another room temporarily and collect his pollen, you can brush that on just one bud later and get enough seeds to grow again without ruining your whole crop.

its all a lot to take in for your first grow

yes he will polinate the female plants with buds filling the buds with seeds. he wont produce seeds himself

Using CFLs, they are about 3’ from the plants right now. This is my first time growing, I began removing extra stems in the first few weeks of veg growing. I stopped removing them because I wasn’t sure how “bushy” it should be.

some of those books are quite old. i think it was an ed rosenthal book i had when i first started out and a lot of that info has been disproven since then

He has been removed from the room. I’ll take pics of the other two that I think are females, just to be sure. Thank you!

These two are females, I was pretty sure. If they are not please let me know!

 

[Monster762]

Yup get rid of him ASAP unless you want seed. I messed up n got all my females pollenated. One pretty heavily the others just barely seeds. But got good seeds coming from the experience n not $5+ each.

Get rid of the male and get a real light in there. U can worry about makin seeds after u learn how to grow
Those lights u have aint gonna produce shit for weed.
