Most of the plant looks like a male, but the main cola has the tell-tale white pistils shooting off of it. My instinct says this is a male, but I'd like a second, third, or fourth opinion! To be honest I'd almost rather just start over, but if theres any way to get some yield I'll keep this plant going...

are all those 3 pics the same plant? if so its hermie. if you dont want it to pollenate your other females then sure i would kill it, but if its your only plant i would just run with it :D

It's the only one. Isn't that going to cut my yield to a point where it's not really worth it though? I'd say only about 10% of the plant is showing signs of female development...

I want to let you know, as you can see my posts, i dont have much growing experience. Only 1 full grow under my belt. But if it was my plant i would scrap it. If you live in a city make sure to chop it up real nice and toss it.

Keep growing the hermie you will still get bud off of it, just not the best. But you can always make some hash or some brownies and make it worth it.

i agree with cain. already came this far. might as well have somethin' to show for it. can definitely make hash with the hermie or at least smoke regular bud with seeds.

G'day,do you know what strain the hermie (me thinks)is?could be worth collecting pollen if it's good weed.

the pollen will only produce hermi. traits . dont throw it away though. cut off all the male branches . keep a eye on it , and it will be worth smoking if there enough flower branches.bongsmilie

^not enough to get you high. You could try and get bud off of it but its not worth it if it pollinates your crop. i'd chop it down

i think he said 90% of the plant is showing signs of male traits, it sucks yeah but imo waste of time to keep growing it. just start new. You did learn a lot right? :D

Haha, very true! Thanks for the help guys, I think I'll just start fresh, I only have one nug growing and it seems almost pointless...
