Male or Female?

[Ford Prefect 2]

Hi. A quite noobish first post, I am aware of that :D

Nevertheless I need to find an answer to this... What sex is this plant?

I think it looks male. But I'm also new to this. So I need some of your help!

[BobBong]

Hold off the chipmunks.. cause you're growing nut city.

Sorry .. DUDE...lol...

[Ford Prefect 2]

Lol, that was what I was afraid of :(
But I had my hopes that some guy would say "noo, that's a rare phenomenon but it's sure a female" or something...

Thanks anyway.

Gonna grow this one until it's ready anyway. I'm mostly growing small scale for fun, not for a big harvest. :thumbsup:

do male plants have any thc at all?

[orangeman]

OniEhtRedrum781 yes they have THC but obviouslly not enough to be sold and smoked :p. Anyways that doesnt even look like a canabis plant :confused: is that like a Lowryder or somethin?

That's not a bad idea at all. a healthy males plant is just as good as a health female plant (from a specificly horticultural view point).

See how it develops and prepare for lots of weirdness that you probably haven't seen, it grows a lot of nuts by the time it's mature.
:p

what's HIS name ?

Yeah, it's a Low Ryder ;)

You CAN smoke males. Some are surprisingly potent.
Of course nowhere near The Best... But still, properly cured it can be quite good. Don't know about Low Ryder though.

It's worth a try :rasta:

HIS name was Speedy. And it's works for a male. ;)

I named him/her (...) Speedy because he came out of the seed in like 3-4 hours after putting it in wet paper :dance:

ive never seen a weed plant like this prob a low ryder

[Ford Prefect 2]

I give you another photo, this time from the top... Because you say you never seen a plant like this :cool:

This is the second time I even grow cannabis. Like I said, I don't do it for the harvest, but for the fun. I don't have the space or money for a big setup. So I just have one little plant inside the drawer of my desktop.:)

[muffinman]

how low can you go....
that is pretty low, seems like you did some early flowering, a little bit too early...

LowRyder is auto-flowering. Just keep them under 24 hours light (or 18) a day, and their flowering will begin in the 8th week. I've kept this one under light 24 hours a day for about 5 weeks.

Can someone take a look at this picture and tell me what these "hairs" are doing on a male plant :confused:

I read somewhere that LowRyder's couldn't be hermaprodhites. But maybe it's better to make oil of that than a male...

[BobBong]

well, if they're the same plant..then it looks like it'll be a hermie. I haven't heard that about lowryder as i believe any strain can be a hermie. It's just a matter of seed viability.

Hairs on the top and nuts on the bottom, It's a hermie if i've ever seen one.

[Ford Prefect 2]

Thanks!

It's something about me and hermies. I heard it was "very unusual", but... I have growed cannabis two times. Last time I had three plants, all was hermaprodhites... And now this again :o :confused:

And yes, it's the same plant. Now I'm even more decided to let it grow... It will be intresting to try to smoke it... Last time I throwed them away, but will there be real buds on a hermie? But less potent?

[psychocat]

It looks like it could be female but I've never in all my 15 years of growing seen such a small specimen. :D

Have you tried starting from 18/6 instead of 24/0 ? It should be known that 24 hour lighting shouldn't be done any longer than 2 weeks. Especially with something like lowryder because of the automatic flowering. 24/0 beyond the initial seedling stage runs the risk of going hermie.

as you can see.

Try a more common light cycle

I know, it's really really small... But that's just what I wanted from LowRyder. :)

I will try that next time.
Last time I mentioned, I had the cycles that way... This time I did it 24/0 because almost every page with information about LowRyder said that it doesn't really matter, and that you can put it under 18/6 if you wanna cool your room down - and that it wasn't necessary at all.

But I think it's intresting to grow this, even if it does not produce anything I can smoke. I mean, even with better conditions - the ammount of buds on a LowRyder isn't much...

I'm looking forward to see how this one will look in two weeks :)

By the way, I hope you guys understand my English... Sometimes I want to say things, but I don't find the right words. ;)

[Ford Prefect 2]

I must ask one question, I have looked all over the plant and the balls on the earlier picture are completely gone. They can't be found anywhere, I don't know where they went... Is it still a hermie, if it lost it's balls? :confused:

This gets more and more strange...

[Ford Prefect 2]

One more photo on the hairs.

Haha, your plant had a sex change.
