Hi Guys

Here from the Southern part of the UK growing "Tomato Plants"
I have 4 in total. These were given to me because they outgrew the window sill that they were going on.
Never grown "Tomatoes" before and am very very confused by it all. Have read many things on this website and from what i have seen there are several ways of growing.
As we are having excellent weather i have been putting them in the garden and bringing them in at night
2 of them are over 20 inches tall
About 3 weeks ago i put one in the 12/12 cycle. But i have no idea even with looking that the pictures and the helpful pics peeps have sent if this first plant is male or female. Several people on here think its female. A friend that came round to visit said it was male. But he has only ever gronw one plant and wasnt 100 per cent sure.
I'm now going to post every picture that i have taken of it one this page and hopefully you guys can tell me what sex it is.
Really need the help.
Dont want to send it to plant heaven yet till i'm a hundred per cent sure its a male.
These are the first pictures that i have taken. More to follow shortly

Thanks for looking and your future advice. I'm going to need it

I looked at all your pics and unlike T9X, couldn't see any definitive proof of it's sex. If it's been in 12/12 for 3 weeks, the males should be really obvious. I'd wait a little longer before I whacked it. I've had plants I suspected were male pop huge pistils out of those unidentifiable as-of-yet parts.

Hi
Here are the rest of the pictures i have. These were taken after three weeks of the 12/12 cycle. Still unsure what sex it is. So what do you think guys?

Well I'm just gutted :cry::cry::cry: My baby is the wrong sex. Got the other half to bury it in the rubbish bin. Said a little prayer for it.
Shall cry myself to sleep tonight
I think more than anything i wanted it to be female.
Hopefully that hasnt pollenated the other 3 I have.
Will post pics of the other plant i have in the 12/12 cycle (only been in for one week)
Or should i be able to tell before that?

Made an appointment at the opticians

Strain?

Havent a clue. These were given to me by my nephew when these plants outgrew his kitchen window.
Think he just used seeds that he got attached to some smoke he bought.

Out of the 4 he gave me (now down to three.........sob :cry:) 3 of which look like the one in the pictures above and the other has stripey leaves. Can post pictures of this tomorrow if you want to take a look. Havent a clue really what I'm doing with these "tomato" plants.
Crikey its just gone 9pm here got to go bring them in
Thanks for the help everyone will keep you informed

Have you never smoked a tomato plant? Man you dont know what you are missing.................lol
We have young ones around so its easier to call them that.
They even have names
The one that has just passed away was called Happy. Then we have dopey and the other two are called doc and bashful. Aptly named methinks
Lets hope dopey is a girl

Great names rw.

Not been on here for a couple of days cos i been mourning the death of Happy or should i say Mr Happy. Sent him off to see Saint Peter as advised.

On a happier note (pardon the pun) I have some pictures of Dopey. After only 7 days on the 12/12 cycle i think its starting to bud. I've got some pictures. I'm really hoping that you guys are going to tell me is Miss Dopey. Don't think i can cope with the trauma off having to send another plant off to heaven.

So here is where i need some advice. I keep it in the 12/12 cycle for how long?
And do i have to feed it anything different apart the tomato food that i have been feeding them all on? Need especially peeps from the UK to help me here as i have never heard of the stuff you guys in the US are using.
Finally, Can i take a couple of cuttings off it now? Or should i wait a bit longer?

Well here are the pics..................waiting here holding my breath hoping you docs say those magic words............... It;s a girl

Speak to you all soon

Are these all the same plant?

If not, the 3rd picture, and the 6th picture look female to me, but if they're all the same plant.. they're male, toss em.

Those comments are in regards to the first pictures you posted. I'm just now looking at these new pics.

So far, all the most recent pics look female.
