Male or Herm?

Optimum temps 16 to 23 deg c for white flowering plants .
 
LOL, thanks for the help bro. Sorry if my backwards approach bothers you, or that I'm not the encyclopedia of cannabis cultivation that you are. I'm trying to learn, dispel any misperceptions I have about things, learn from others and share some information where I can. Engage peers on an informed intellectual level.

Transpiration and Photosynthesis. ... A leaf needs carbon dioxide and water for photosynthesis. For carbon dioxide to enter, the stomata on the surface of the leaf must be open. As you have seen, transpiration draws water from the roots into the leaf mesophyll. and anything done to optimize thats' going to help, and TEMPS, HUMIDITY, GAS PRESSURES, GRADIENTS AND SUNLIGHT on both ends of the plant all have a major impact.

I thought the idea was to remove all possible pipelines, so that growth can be maximized.
I'm simply trying to simplify some of the basics of plant metabolism, and you believe it's bullshit, but it's not.
If someone like you started a chilled DWC outside, I bet you'd have crazy results out there where your at, or especially anywhere in the high Deserts. Or simply blowing cooled air into your root beds.

LEAVES can take heat, ROOTS CANNOT...
I'm referencing the plant's "actual" temps, not the air temps around it...

I was there when i saw the amount of balls in this thread :P
What's wrong with helping me identify a male? I wanted to make sure it's not herm, and I want to compare the two of them and find the better male, I need this pollen, and it's not a bad thing having validation. Especially if I'm not 100% sure of myself in this respect.

I'm just seeking your guy's advice, that this is POSITIVELY a male, nothing else. Now your getting me paranoid that it could be a hermie or something, and you guys are full of shit. The arrogance in this place is funny. Everyone's an "expert", lol

It will eventually get hairs if it's a herm, (I think it would have already happend) so I moved it just in case. Otherwise, if it stay's firmly in the male category, I might give it a try.

One looks a little thicker in the branching, don't you think? LEFT or RIGHT

Believe me it male so stop worrying and do some cross pollination and seed up a storm . Od .

Tore up.... There is no hairs coming in on those plants they are straight male. Hermie and male look like two different plants. I’m gone as well. 10 year “breeder” and you don’t know the difference?

I know the difference, but I simply wanted some confirmation, as these males were made from 2 female plants, (afghan autoflower female and photosensitive Bubba Kush "turned" male pollen) and I've never seen that happen before. So I'm pretty surprised actually. I sure as f#*** don't want to make an error like that, and have a bunch of herm seeds.

Usually, I get completely feminized pollen only.

I've only seen a few actual herms over the years too, maybe a half dozen or less. I did see a ATF that was deformed earlier this year, but I don't know if it was herm or not, because I killed it, when I seen the leafs doing weird things.

Also, I was unsure if the hairs might show up a couple days behind the balls, I'm still not entirely convinced, but I do trust that many here know what there talking about, so if it does turn eventually, you guys are going to look foolish. (I'm hoping it stays male, and pretty sure you guys are right by the level of confidence everyone here is demonstrating)

I interested in how many more males are there also, the ratio from male to female... like say, maybe 2 sets of female on the "female" side, and 1 female/1 male on "male" side, should create a 3:1 ratio females:males or 25% propability.

Actually, I think there's not really a chart around for this particular situation (that I can find) because it's a "double" Gametes senario on that male side, that's expressing "more" female genes. (If I am correct) We will see what happend by the count of males, as the numbers will be telling here, and there were 21 plants, more than enough for a general statistical analysis

Not a huge amount, but should get a general idea. If males happen 50% or only 25%.d
From what I understand, sometimes you can get "female" traits (ie. bushier, closer internodals) from a "male" specimen, that's a genuine male, (with some female traits) so I might have hit the jackpot here.

But I do see some difference still in morphology from other than the pollen sacs, it does appear a little bigger, and the branching is somewhat different than the girls look so far, they are far more flatter, and closer internodes. Taking pictures here, and documenting it, should really help put it in perspective, It's got me wondering.

ANYONE, PLEASE explain HOW I GOT 2 MALES FROM 2 FEMALE PLANTS.... (ie. this was feminized pollen).
MALE WAS CREATED WITH PHOTOPERIOD KUSH WITH FRESHLY MIXED
Silver Thiosulfate Solution(STS) USING Silver Nitrate AND Sodium Thiosulfate Pentahydrate
