With a triffid-like Afghan, planted from regular seed, I was concerned that this fine specimen was a male and that I'd tempted fate by naming 'her' after the current Afghan Princess; Noal, Princess of Sa'id.
Separating 'her' from the 20/4 lighting used for the autos, I made a wee cupboard and set up the lighting to 12/12 and put a scrog net over the top to limit the upward growth. Looking through this and other forums, sexing was straight forward, they have balls or wisps. Easy. With anticipation, I waited and checked every day for a sign.
This morning, I was disappointed to see balls. With my mobile phone, I took a few photos and it confirmed that it looked like Noal, was in-fact a Prince, not a Princess. In the photo below, to me, they look like balls. Comparing the image to all those of males I could find, confirmed these were balls.
Reluctant to dramatically reduce 'his' size, with a sharp knife, I was ready to wait another week or so before condemning 'him' to cannabutter or some similar fate.
BUT......
This evening using a macro lens on an elderly Nikon, these are some of the close-up photos of the 'balls' with whisps of feminine mystique.
I'm delighted to say, that Noal, looks like she's a real Princess. (Please tell me I'm right....)
