If you have a pre flower...say it's a male....will it continue to develop in the next set of leaves? IOW....will there be another preflower?
My chit has preflowers....I cant tell yet if they are male/fem, but I've read that only a male will show a preflower once.....then the next nodes will continue as usual..mine is showing 3 node sets...but I see no "hair" yet the preflower is just a little nub....is it male? ?You can barely see in the pic....just behind the spur....in the crotch??? The next set of leaves has one too but just smaller...

If all you see is a little ball, and no hairs, then 95% chance it's a male. Give it a few days just to be certain. But if you don't see any hairs then kill it.

yea, Sublime....but Do male preflowers continue to the next nodes??? I cant remember...I havent grown serious in 15 years....and as soon as I saw one it was history....
But ditto...I'll give it a few days...
With it's massive growth though...I think it's a boy....I'll update that in a few!! Thanks
Tahoe...yea the pic dosent do justice..and I'm new with the camera! What fun!

Ok..I still cant tell...will a preflower continue DOWN the stalk?? Once you see your "preflower" will others continue to develop all over the plant/stalk/nodes???

hey can someone tell me if this is a hermie, or just a male with hairy flowers. the only males I can identify have pistil filled buds forming with one or a few nut like forms, so Im pretty sure they are hermies
