In my latest grow, I planted 5 non-feminized seeds of one strain & 3 feminized seeds of another. All the feminized are now confirmed females with pistils, but I’m fairly certain all 5 non-feminized seeds turned out to be males! WTF?

Am I crazy or are these all males??? (Except the 1st pic)

Please confirm from pics because I’m about to cut down these F’ers down!

Here’s 1 of the females with obvious pistils

Males with multiple pollen sacs forming

Another male I believe

More nuts forming

Thanks Boatguy!

The 1st is a confirmed female. I included it for comparison and listed as female.

The male flowers dont open immediately or anything. Just wait till you are certain.
Males usually hang from a stem, female flowers are pretty well stuck to the stem. Easy to identify even without the hairs
Totally different shape, and look

Thanks!
I’ve always used feminized seeds until now, but this one strain I really wanted was not available in feminized so I took a shot & pretty sure they’re all males. Harsh

Those look like males. It happens. Sounds like bad luck unless you want a male for the pollen. Recently I popped some seeds of a cross I made specifically hoping for males. I got all females. They ended up in the compost. I'm probably one of a very few people on this site looking for males and culling female plants.

Well I wouldn't kill the girls, but I do single out males for the pollen.

The only females came from feminized seeds of another strain (Aloha Limone). The males were all a non-feminized seeds from a powerhouse strain called Guptilla ( Gupta Kush x Gorilla Glue).

The owner of Colorado Seed, Inc. felt bad and offered to replace them with clones of his best phenos from that same strain. Great customer service & pretty freakin cool. I’ll have those clones ready for flower by the time the Aloha Limone is ready for harvest, so it works out pretty damn good in the long run!

Thanks everyone for your input!

It really should be like winning a prize, getting a sweep of males with a five pack is quite difficult!!

It was actually a 6 pack, but I run hydroponics & only had room for 8 plants total, so I planted 3 feminized & 5 non-fem, hoping to end up with 5 or 6 females total.

I was actually planning on taking 2 females of the Guptilla & making feminized seeds with them, but that shits’s not happening now until I get those new clones going..

Had any good ones?

I have.....pollen chucked 20 years back with some hash plant, was awesome and still have a bunch of seeds that weren't stored properly so they've been hard to germ. But I also have pollen from the last couple years, raspberry cough (2 different ones) and some garlic breath.....I have a few other regs that I want to grow out. Some blue mystic and mango skunk from nirvana. And some of my own crosses and a friend's crosses....
