i have a FEMALE people!!!

the little ball, that i had seen, happened to crack, within the 2 day period
i got a magnifying glass & spotted 2 TINY HAIRS emerging from the ball :D
i will post up some close up pictures of it, once i get a camera, that can capture it

it's actually amazing, really
my plant is only 4 1/2 inches tall, it went from slow growth to fast growth
the sense of smell, right now, is SUPER strong, i need to control that ASAP!
i did what 'rolla' said, rub the leaves & smell my finger & WOW!
i'm sorry, i'm over reacting, but, it's my first grow & i'm just so happy
mainly because, i went from thinking it was a male, because of the nut
& from 2 days passing, to using a magnifying glass, i find it's a female

& to think, i was going to trash it...

pictures will be up, in about a week or even less
i'm going to let the hairs, come out a little more, so, you all can see them

thanks for listening/reading
i'm just TOO HAPPY :)
 
Good stuff man..thats why I always tell people to wait...what looks like balls can be just new growth... rub the stem... it smells great..I wouldn't worry too much about the smell..get a plug in air freshener, but DON'T put it near the plant..I almost killed a plant till my dad said to move it away... Happy growing and luck..

*+rep for a good start.
 
^ yeah, you're right! the stem smells great!
yeah, i was thinking about getting the plug in freshener
i don't feel like buying that filter s**, it's not suitable for my growbox

i have outlets next to my growbox, so it wont be anywhere, inside the box
i'll just have to grab a lot of those fresheners & fill my room with it
not to the point, where i end up, getting sick from the fumes
but, you get the idea, of what i'm trying to do & say, lol

 
One of the things that I have noticed is that the plants stink a lot right before you flower them, and it doesn't matter if they're male or female. Then once it starts flowering, the plant kind of loses some of that strong skunkiness for a little while. It usually lasts for like the first month of flowering, or maybe a little more. But then once the buds start growing and maturing, WATCH OUT, they reek so much worse than ever before. A plug-in won't help by itself either at that point. Happy growing!
 
Congratulations Rasta! I'm very happy to hear that you've got a female on your hands! Keep up the good work :-D
 
congrats bro! hey for smell instead of those plug ins, get yourself a air wick fresh matic ultra. the lavender works wonderfully. you can find them at wal-mart and probably many different stores. i have had 6 ICE plants flowering full force and with two of these air wicks running you couldnt smell anything but freshness. i was gonna use the carbon scrubber and didnt even have to. soon im gonna get that cindy99 from joey weed seeds and simply run only the air wicks. the nice thing about them is that if the power goes out it doesnt matter cuz the air wick is still working and that old carbon scrubber is just sitting there worthless while the power is out. they have saved my ass a couple times already. peace.
 
thanks everyone, for the grats! i really appreciate it

i'll be sure to check those out, icemassa
thanks for the odor control suggestion
thanks to all, for giving me info on the odors

hopefully, 1 should work well
but, i'm definitely going to try that air wick one, lol

I agree with the "balls" being new growth.. I have seen many that were thought to be males and days later had hairs sticking out..
