Toronto area here as well. Had the same thing happen to me, dozens of em popped up over the last couple weeks, but won’t be keeping any.
Gonna have to talk to the neighbours and make sure they’re removing any on their side, lol.
Too many novice gardeners around not knowing how to identify and remove males causing problems.
I agree. Imo, anyone that can't identity a male should not grow in any way. It's bizarre. I knew what a male was 20 years before I considered growing a plant.
The second I though about smoking weed I did an elementary google search of the word "marijuana". Within a few seconds of reading the first article (literally) it explained and showed a picture of a male and female plant. Yet we still have people here multiple times a day that just can't seem to figure it out for some bizarre reason.
It blows my mind that there are people here that have smoked weed for years, and have gone through multiple grows, and they STILL need help sexing a plant.....it's like, what is wrong with your eyes? Did you forget what the last male six months ago looked like? And the one before that?
Am I the only one that did five minutes of research when I was 15? I find it strange, as if I have an interest I will always want to learn about it, even more so if it's a psychoactive drug I'm looking to consume and grow.
