Is my plant showing signs of being a male or female.

[mustaineaddict]

It is still early but i can see things growing at the inner nodes. it is kind of scarring my because it looks like a little ball is growing at the node. i dont see any pistols yet. but i think thye could pop up by tonight or tomorrow.
I know it might be too early to tell but im freaking out.

Any thoughts?

Looks like balls to me. Give it a couple more weeks so you can see better

 

[gopherbuddah]

It's almost inpossible to tell sex until the third week or so before you can tell. Those things you think are balls are gonna most probablt gonna turn in to leaves. Don't start freaking out yet friend. Are you growing a bag seed or did you order seeds?

 

[mustaineaddict]

it is a bagseed

 

[joweed]

I cant see any "cojones" yet...
But, Im wondering, which strain is it?

 

[mishin31]

looks like a male, but hard to tell. Wait a while

 

[mustaineaddict]

no idea which strain but it has only been flowering for 5 nights and 4 days so yeah it might be to early to tell.

That's a male man. I've never seen those little balls turn into leaves. I saw a thread similar to this a bit ago.

I'd keep letting it grow though! Doesn't look like you're in any danger of cross pollination. I always have trouble giving away even my clones.

That's how they start out. I don't do feminized seeds so every time I start from seed I have to sex my plants. The preflowers typically are really small, but once you get the hang of sexing plants it's almost second nature.

had a male looked identical to that whilst sexing u shud only have 1 ball with pistils cuming out if its a female . bin it if u have females around or it wil get pollenated

 

[mustaineaddict]

is sexing a plant something u do to make it female or is that a way of saying ur looking to see what sex it is?


UPDATE: my plant now has 3 tiny balls at every nodes. so im guessing its a male for sure

lol! Sexing just means identifying which sex your plant is. Feminizing would be something you do to make a plant a female.

how would i go about feminizing my next plant? and could my plant still be a hermanphrodite

Typically a breeder will stress the shit out of known females, usually by bouncing the light cycle around. The ones that resist becoming hermies get treated with a chemical like colloidal silver or giberellic acid. This causes female plants to sprout some male flowers. Since the pollen is coming from a female plant the pollen will produce only females.

ok here are updated pictures.

Bummer Does it smell like anything when you touch the stem?

 

[mustaineaddict]
