Sneaky male

It's been a while since I popped regular seeds ... I caught a couple males in veg, but this one appears to be a male. Do you agree?

It's been in flower for almost a week. Dammit.

It has a 10 to 11-week flowering time, as do the other 5 plants in its flood tray, so I'll replace this one with the next best 8-week flowering strain in about a week. Sucks because I cloned it like 10 times and 5 already progressed to 5-gallon grow bags....

I'm only working with fem seeds going forward, but I noticed it tends to be easier to detect males if you don't top plants early. What a waste of time and resources. Dammit.

Ehh, I'll just wait until ~week 5 to fill my 4 open seats with a 12-weeker (Cherry Poundcake), so they finish with 8 to 9-week strains next round. I can fit 24, but started this first round in my new setup with 21 (now 20). It'll be ok.

The Undercaker isn't a big loss. I need to exclude 2 or 3 strains anyway to make room for my newer stuff. Oh well....

Male.

If you decide to run M/F seeds again in the future with the intent to clone and transplant into final containers before the plant shows sex, it's probably worth it for you to sex test the plant at a week or two old. Cost is like $15 per sample + shipping costs.

Currently working with very limited space. I sex test regs every time. Saves a lot of time and energy.
