This plant has been under 24 hours of light for the last 2 weeks. I'm using a MH light.

Is it just me, or does it appear that it's already getting ready to flower?
Yup, looks like a damn male to me.
I have another one as well, and I really think it's a female :stoned:


Here's a few pics of the male in question...

Yep, they are male preflowers. Keeping the plant in 24/0 wont stop a few flowers from developing at each node but it should prevent full blown flowering.

Some strains show sex under constant light at a very young age. Get rid of that male (unless you are making seeds) It's not uncommon to have a male in flower under constant lighting. It's nothing compared to what they do under 12/12. They can cover a whole room in yellow pollen and have thousands of male flowers everywhere!

Some plants will also flower or semi-flower under stressful environmental conditions, under drought, severe nutrient imbalances, or when they are rootbound.

It's a simple survival mechanism. What are your conditions like btw?

Good luck man! :thumbsup: :rasta:

Well, the plant is about a month old. The first 2 weeks it was under a flourescent light. So, it's actually about 4 weeks old.
I'm gonna chop it up today. Glad i still hae another plant!

Thanks for the help guys.

Never seen a male flower under 24 hours of light. I've done this a few times, but I'm no way near a pro either.
