Maybe a male?

Good Morning Folks!

Got a question about a 10" plant. When it was just 3" tall I pinched it and got the split I wanted. The split was low to the soil and I was happy with the results. The plant is growing well. Last night I took a look at it, I noticed on both stalks, there were small balls at the top of both stems. (The balls are the size of Seeds). This morning, some of the "balls" had flowered. I have never had a Male plant before.

Many of ya'll are pros at this, I am an amateur, and have been messing around with it for 20 years. This is a new scenerio for me, so I do appreciate any thoughts on this subject.

Maybe a picture?
Commonly mistaken for Male Pre-Flowers, New inter node growth could be the culprit.
Starts off small and ball like much like a pollen sack, main difference is there will be 1 and 1 only at each node.
Any more... And, well, sorry to say but that would be a male, mate.

UH. Males happen. Try another seed, or get feminized seeds. If you use random bag seeds or buy un-feminized seeds you need to increase your odds by germinating several.

Thanks for the replies. Sorry, but I'm fuzzy on the plant's status, do you think it's a male? I've heard that it's ok to keep male plants growing, as long as I keep it away from any females. Thanks

Male. Get that stud out of the flower room or you'll have seed up in them buds. Pollen sac is open too so don't wait too long.

Thanks Csufan. I'm amused that this is the first one I can remember in about 20 years. Just a small question, do male plants produce bud comparable to the females? Just a curiosity question, the Male in question has been eradicated.

Males produce nothing but trouble (pollen). Unless you are a breeder, you do not want them. 1st one on 20 years, that's pretty fucking good man!

Some people have all the luck, and some people have all the bad luck. It's called the law of averages, when understood, It can be used to advantage. 20 years of good luck.
