Male Or Female?

[Gatorade]

My plant is in the first week of flowering and i think its a male but im not sure and need some help. It might be too early to tell still but im not sure. Here are some pics.

Anything i can do with it? besides brutally murder it..

[psychocat]

I would hold off killing it since it isn't clear at this moment.

the 3rd pic is of a male for sure... u can see the lil cluster of about 3 to 4 balls

[SantaClawz]

Its hard to tell if those are balls. I see female in 2nd pic, I think i see the hair, but cant really say for sure. But it does look like clusters on the 3rd pic. Could be new growth of leaves tho.

Thanks for the replies.

thanks opie, I've seen quite a few males in my time. Theres no mistaking that.

Pull back the outer layer of those little pods and you will see seed-like things in them instead of hairs. You need a magnifying glass for that.

I didn't want to start a new thread, the subject seemed to fit...

I am in my last few weeks of flowering, and everything is in the 'swell' stage, harvest is soon. my plants are all clones from a female. I might be jumping the gun on this, but it looks like at random spots (2 or 3), that I have seeds... Now I don't know if they are male or even a seed, or IF that is the way the calyx looks like when it starts to open (even in female). In the attached photo, the area I am talking about is in the middle. it has a 'SEED' exterior to it. This is my first grow.

Is this normal? Hopefully this is 'normal' :)

I don't see any evidence of seeding but only time will tell , was the plant exposed to a male or could you have accidentaly pollinated it by contact with a male outside of your grow?

jnewkid:
Too late to worry about, either way. Nothing left to do but ride it out.

male

Yup, male: 2nd and 3rd pictures.

[Opie Yutts]

jnewkid, that pod-like thing in the middle of the photo is a little worrisome, but don't worry, it may not be a seed pod. And like Rusty says, no sense worrying about it now.

[Gatorade]

Well im sure now that its a male but i said i was gonna post more pics of it so here they are.

Well should i kill it?

Or is there anything i can do with it?

:(

Is it possible to seperate it into it's own little grow area ?
If not then you have no choice than to destroy it unless you want your females pollinated.

If you can seperate it you will still need to be extremely careful not to accidentaly carry pollen on your clothes or body from the male into your female area.
