I am putting pics of one of my plants. It has been flowering for a week. It has what looks like little balls. I thought it was too soon to tell sex. I have read threads where it looks like balls and then hairs grow out. Does at happen? Are those the buds forming and then it gets hair or do I have a boy? These pictures are not good but it is the best I can do . MY camera sucks. Thanks in advance for all the help. This is my first grow so I have never had to tell the sex before. :peace:

You are a huge help. that was all I needed to know if it was male. I have 3 others that are starting to do the same thing. I can get rid of them and hope they have knocked up the girls. I will take the rest of the pics on a incline. The problem with the pics is ..... I am taking them with my phone. We have a good camera but we lost the cable to upload the pics so it does me no good. Thanks for letting me know. :peace:

those balls open up to polinate the females, If your females arent hevily showing hairs (like a bunch of em) then they wont be seeded even if those open up now.
but when they open up they will look like the insides of one of em(squeeze one open and look @ the insides of it to see)
They dont all open @ once, they gradually just start doing it....
I fyou wanna make seeds with whatever strain it is that your growing then put one of the males outside (assuming that your sunlight is about 14hrs a day right now like mine)

Well after looking at all of them really close, I had 5 boys. 3 are girls and then I have the one that is retarded. It is not showing balls yet. I am glad I kept it. I am also glad I did 9. It was a little depressing to have to up root 5 plants I have taken care of. Oh well, I am drying them in the oven now. I am going to make butter. I know that it will not be that great but I am dry and so a little buzz in better than none. Thanks for the help:peace:
