This is a strawberry diesel x aloha white widow grown from seed... It's a month and 1/2 old, been in flowering for 2 weeks now. It sprouted white hairs (shown in top 2 pics) but not as many as the other females and now they are starting to flower before the others too and IM PANICKING!!!

Is this a male afterall? Are these flowers or pollen sacs? Help me my friends, thanks!

ALSO can someone explain the white hairs then? I thought those were supposed to be a clear sign of a female so now I'm confused!

if u have females i would be careful as fuck with that big boy. id put it in a trash bag before i murdered it. if it is a hermie plant it can pass on the hermie genes thru the pollin. ur seeds wont be awesome. but if it in fact a solid male why not pollinate a famale branch. it will give u some beans to replant later if ur only lookin for personal smoke

Ok so that one will die. Do you think it's already destroyed the females?

Only time will tell, Just like the male/female thing. I have been deceived by those white hairs before as well. This male looks particularly far along...Are any of the little sacs opened up? That could be a clear sign that they have been spreading pollen to the females. If you left it in there this long my guess ( humble as it may be ) is yeah there's a pretty good chance they got pollenated. Just IMHO.

Good call on this if your plants aren't already pollenated, pollenate a branch and collect seeds for next round.

I only know what I have read and haven't had time to read much about this stage of things.... what happens if the females get pollenated? Are they useless or can I get seeds off them?

now is the time to start pollinating. it takes about 5 weeks for te seeds to fully mature. on a second look that is a healthy ass looking male bro. if the females get pollinated the pistils or whit hairs will shink back into the calax. cant remembered how its spelled. lmao. u will still be able to get bud out of the females for some smoke too. but be carefull. or u will end up with thousands of seeds. lmao. search pollination and breeding. u should find a lot of reading and articles on this site.

its all good man. newbs happen. lol. just be sure to hit people up with rep if they help u in the future. its much appreciated if the person puts forth the effort of helping u and its actual helpful to the person needing it. remember everyone is entitled to their opinion u just gotta learn to accept that some people are complete idiots and u will learn to weed them out so to speak. oh and start a journal. it lets people fallow ur grow so they have an idea whats going on with ur plants. i coulda helped u determine that was a male a week ago. lol. but no biggie. its all learning.:)
