I think your Top44 might be a boy.
See the balls...give it a few day`s to be sure though.

[tahoe58]

hey thanks for taking a look...and making your comments. I sure hope not...but I would certainly not be the one to make that call....here I have taken the original phot and cropped super close....I have two others, one is just slightly out of focus but I also included the other... do you still think so?

 

[canadiancowboy]

Still kinda hard to tell...so I circled the spots.
Keep an eye on those , thats where she`ll show if it`s male or female.
It should show it`s sex sometime this week I`d say.
If you get 2 little balls it`s a boy...if you see 2 little white hairs growing there you have a girl.
I`ll keep watching too.
Did you try and clone the top ya cut off?

[tahoe58]

thanks Man....I rrealy appreciate your expertise. in my eyes (as inexperienced as they are....) and looking close ...they pears to be leaf bracts? But I will certainly keep an eye open...and I'm not setup at the moment for cloning....will be next week...

Oh no, it looks as if there is a male pranching around your grow room waiting to pollenate all your ladies, lol. Give it a couple days to make sure then kill that bastard, lol.

 

[canadiancowboy]

I really hope you are right.
Whenever I top a plant I always stick the part cut off in soil...you`d be amazed at how easy some strains will take root.
Just a thought for future reference, if she took and it was a girl ...you`d have 2 Top44.

I am very intrerested in the comments re: male....that would be disappointing considering that is the only Top44 sprout I had...but I have more seeds and will try again....try and try again...there is no failure, except in no longer trying...hehehehehe thanks a bunch everyone!!

 

[jomal206]

Man yours look nice and big compared to mine!!

Keep up the good work, your plants look nice and healthy

 

[tahoe58]

thaks man...I've have been very fortunate....i am walking blind but so far haven't bumped into anything too significant! hahahahaha

 

[GrowItGreen]

I'm no pro or even close, I'm 60 Days into my first but what ever one is saying looks like male preflowing just looks like the stipule to me....I don't see any preflowers at all.

 

[tahoe58]

yea...I agree...I don't think so either but then whaddaI know.....dick all...this is all totally new to me....thanks for piping in though!

 

[Rocky Mountain High]

I have a quick question. I thought that the plants have to into the flowering, 12/12, to start showing sex? I have way too many plants and I have been holding and rotating them into the flower room as I kill off males. I'd love to be able to sex 'em earlier to clear ups space and pots for the next crop.

Great grow tho and I'm enjoying the journal.

 

[tahoe58]

well...I am certainly not he most experienced to pose that question to .... and there is a lot of debate about the.....but it would seem to me that the plant has to mature...and will show preflower...and then you can put into 12/12....others have strongly argued that the changing of the photoperiod can "induce" the plant to flower...I do not know the real answer...to me, logically, the plant prolly has to mature and show preflower before it goes to 12/12....but l;ike I say...you will prolly see lots of folks say I'm wrong.....cheers and good luck!!

 

[Rocky Mountain High]

Thanx man, I appreciate it!

 

[tahoe58]

no worries....grow on....good luck!

Top of the Morning Mate,
I final got some sleep around 5 in the MFM.
I hope all of them are all bit*hes so you can get the triafecta.
Anyways whats new?

I just found out that I might have to wait another 10-15 days to chop and crop. I took another look at my girls and they have no red/brown hairs yet. 60 days into flower. Shi*

What do you think T.
