Can you guys tell the gender?

SecretStasher · Apr 29, 2018

Man. I'm in limbo whether or not I should just chop this plant or not. It's showing it's preflowers and I just noticed a couple of days ago but I can't for the life of me tell whether it's male or female. I noticed what looks to be 3 tightly formed "dots" forming a triangle above some stipules near the top nodes. Then I notice what looks to be very obvious feminine pistils but could just be odd looking new growth.

It's my first grow and this thing has been around since early march. I was hoping for a female especially since it's my only grow, but honestly I'm willing to take anything other than a male. If it's a male all I get is experience and some 2 galons of petered out soil that I could patch my lawn up with I guess.

To add icing on the cake my camera seems to not want to focus despite over 10k lumens lighting the plant.
So here's the "best" pictures. Maybe you guys could decipher it. Already in the process of feeding it another round of nutes + a good watering.

Not from those pics

Just from the pictures taken with a potato it looks to be male, it is possible that it’s a hermie. If I were you I’d hang on to it a little longer, until you get better pics, he’s a example of a male from one of my first grows

Here's an update 4 days later.

It looks great in all but man I'd kill if it was female

I think it'd be pretty dumb to chop. If I'm going to spend 2+ months to take care of something you're damn sure I'm waiting at least a week instead of speculating when I don't even have a magnifying glass Lol

Thanks for the relies

SecretStasher · May 3, 2018

Grapes = male = sad life
But at the very top is what looks to be hairs

I'm just going " congratulations, it's a boy!"
In my head

Over and over again

charface · May 3, 2018

Im 99 sure its male but do us blind people a favor.
Post a clear pic of those sex parts.
I mean close and in focus.

100% male just look at all the balls in the first pic.

That sure is a manly man you’ve got

SecretStasher · May 3, 2018

There's hair on the two very tops. My camera is suuuuper shit since I dropped it and it refuses to focus things in the middle.

I know preflowers look alike and it hasn't even been more than a week since I flipped. But it's my only plant and if it's a Hermie, which is what it's telling me at this very moment than I'll let it grow and pick off whatever else

But it is looking very manly. So fucking weird because it grew so short and bushy before

Definitely not growing out anymore of this bagseed. This was a great plant, smells nice and looks good but if the flowering genetics aren't stable it's just not for someone like me

I see nothing but nuts. IF it does have any hairs which I doubt it’s more man than lady and wouldn’t be worth it. But I see nuts for days.

That sucks man

Guess buying good seed is worth it

Even with good genetics there’s always a chance for males.

Not necessarily bad seed, just male

Thought my luck would be good. Ah well. In that case just rate my plant.

I plan on making the lights a bit more efficient. I'm growing using 6 bulbs, 5 LED with defusers and 1 big ass CFL ( the only 2.7k lumen CFL I've ever found). They're on two separate hangers of three. I was thinking to combine the hangers and form some sort of concave assortment so the plant can be surrounded by light. I didn't want to take the defusers off because it makes the light a bit too directional. I'm thinking of just starting the seed in my biggest pots because transplanting is such a pain

Look into qb lights or something. And get you a new phone or camera.

Do plants normally split in two main stems like that or does it "stem" from something else?

Keith Stoner · May 3, 2018

Well I just came back to see if you’d posted any updated potato pics and you did, of a 100% male plant. Better luck next grow man, and if you happen to get a fem seed raise it just as well as you did this one, just with better pics!

Can you guys tell the gender?
