I could, but the use of a dictionary would be more empowering. Is english your native language? Are you taking medication or have you been diagnosed with a learning problem? Are you experiencing confusion more often than normal?

Maybe describe to us what you vape frequently to run your battery down?

I am beginning to worry that you may need to be examined by a medical practitioner.
awww dont worry little buddy

Not if you’re going back outside with this plant. It will take a month + for it to reveg and most likely end up a mess.
This has been my experience with it! I’ve prematurely flowered and left them out in the summer, sun to reveg! Turned into a complete waste of time! After five or six weeks, I just nuked them! Maybe reveging Is more of an indoor thing where you have more control over your environment!

It's not really necessary to provide links to that. But you should check that you arent a victim of superstitions, bro science
speak for yourself:

Manipulating light cycles
At any stage of vegetative growth cannabis plants can be forced to reveal their sex through successful manipulation of light cycles. Expose the plants to a longer night cycle, from either 24:0 or 18:6, to 12:12 and you can plan on seeing either ā€œballsā€ or ā€œhairsā€ within about a week. After a week the light cycle should be adjusted back to 24:0 or 18:6 so the plants will return to vegetative growth. While this method shortens the time it takes to sex a plant, it doesn’t always work. Some male cannabis plants originating in far northern areas are not photosensitive. This means you can not trigger flowering by manipulating the light cycle because it is age and the naturally occurring developmental stages of the plant that determines when the male displays sex and begins to flower. Also, some indica dominant plants don’t always want to return to the vegetative phase and can produce some bizarre and unwanted growths or even carry on into full bloom prematurely."
...
"Using blue lighting
Cannabis is a short-day plant, meaning that as the days get shorter it determines when to flower based on the number of uninterrupted hours in darkness. The method by which cannabis determines and measures the length of a dark period is by using the hormone phytochrome which can be found in 2 states:

  • Inactive state ( Pfr): occurring when it absorbs red light spectrum at 666 nanometers
  • Active state (Pr ): triggered i in as little as 2hrs of being exposed to complete darkness.
When high levels of flowering hormone (Pr) remain elevated over a critical period of time for several days, the plant will start to transition from vegetative growth to flower. The hours of darkness required to begin flower differs greatly by the different species of cannabis plants. Sativas, because they develop near the equator, require a longer period of darkness than indicas and some sativas will even continue vegetative growth in 10-11hrs of darkness which would otherwise cue most plants to flower. The active form (Pf) can be returned to its inactive state, stopping the flowering response, with interruption by red light around 660 nm or even blue light; when Blue LED or fluorescent light is the only light used on an 18:6 light cycle, the plants will slightly begin flowering while simultaneously continuing vegetative growth. After sexing they can be returned to a full spectrum light at 18:6 to produce more a robust vegetative growth and halt the flowering process. This method works well for higher populated cannabis gardens that would make using the clone and sex method a bit tricky."

notice that i never said i use thoose methods personnaly just that some do.

Some plants seem to hate it more than others and even when they make the switch will throw single bladed leaves for a while.

It's a break glass in emergency technique in my book but then you find someone who does "monster cropping" and you scratch your head like hmmm...

yea true... but i feel sorry for the kid


he is probably thinking about potatos and monsanto we dont have that in cannabis.only gmo is that famous strain.
ormaybe he thinks about strains that have been inbreed for so long that they dont produce good polen.but those strains are inbreed for a reason

he picked a fight with herbal XD.doesnt know dude has an doctorate in agroculture
I laughed out loud when he told Herbal to learn ā€œplant biology 101ā€ 😳 🤣

I thought you just took a cut off of a vegging plant, separated it, and put it to flower! Meanwhile, leaving the original plant to continue vegging on its own! Then ditch the clone when you found out what you want to know. Or ditch both of them when you find What you didn’t want to see!😁 Do all of your sex investigating and cut taking while the plant Is in veg! Don’t know why you would do any of it when the plant Is in flour and then have to deal with reveging.

This thread, like a few others lately have gotten way off track in a hurry. The OP bounced on page 1 with the correct answer after 2 posts. Better to drop it for now and see if the OP actually comes back.

It's obvious to most of us what's happening but let's not forget that trolls need to be fed too.

I found this seed in a grow I did last year. It came from a feminized dynamite diesel. I have no idea how the plant got pollinated because I only had other feminized plant around it however it was my first outdoor grow so I guess it could've been a number of things. Sprouted March 4. Is it too early to tell if this is male or female?
I had this little hydroponic system that I was doing some herbs so I put it in one of those pots with all of the nutrients that I was giving the herbs from the Hydro pack and it seems to be doing great.
Yes. It’s too early to tell yet.

Because to make feminized seeds they artificially stress a female into producing male reproductive parts which makes it a hermaphrodite. Then that unfit pollen from that heremaphrodite is used to make seeds...View attachment 2400259

which passes on the hermaphroditic trait to the progeny. Since that trait was passed on, what you thought were female plants, went hermaphroditic and made male reproductive flowers, and that pollen made seeds. Most likely. I hope this helps your understanding. We can say it's likely going to express itself as female ish. Let it get a couple more nodes. Give it only 6 hours light and after 4-7 days you will be able to sex it. But you have to look closely.View attachment 2400271
I'm back. Been some time and a lot of new growth. Any idea if it's male or female yet? Thanks!

Looking good Jimmy! You are doing good. It is not expressing its sex on it's own accord. Too young perhaps. It is at the beginning stage of an adult plant now. Some of mine have shown sex at the 4th node as the fifth is just unfolding, but that is not usual. GSC F1 will do that. I have a 4 way cross (f1xf1) that does it, so maybe it's just what happens with heterosis, and it doesn't happen with polyhybrids. I will have to pay better attention and make some notes about that. So, some plants just take longer. It seems like you have to wait one more week, possibly 2 and check again. If you do not want to wait for it to express its sex on it's own time after that 2 week mark, reduce the light to 6 hours a day, and 18 hours of total darkness until you see the male or female parts in the picture I put up. This is the fastest way to sex them.

***Disclaimer: Heterosis is relevant to this topic, and not used in a way to degrade or tarnish the image of the site sponsors selling seeds that are unable to produce heterotic vigor.

OK over a month now since we checked in on this. I've pretty much just forgotten about it because I didn't want to put a lot of effort into it if I didn't know if it was male or female so I've had it outside now for about the last month. Some substantial new growth on it now. What are you guys think? Male or female?

Well crap! I don't want to mess around with this thing! Is there anything makes are useful for other than pollination?
