As much as I like 'em, think this is the first time I've used 'em as the subject of a post.
So we got these things starting to flower, and we want to find the male(s) and yank 'em. One of the things I've been told is that those white, feathery things are the female parts, out trying to catch pollen in the breeze. Yet I got stung, when a plant with these white fuzzies turned out to be male and that promising crop turned out to be a rich harvest of fertile seeds. So was I wrong, or was it just a hermy trying to confuse me?
I got a couple plants with these fuzzies and a couple that don't seem to have 'em. Been on 12/12 for about five days. Here's a couple pictures; my question is, when I see these, does that always mean they're female, or am I totally looking at the wrong thing?
Thanks for your help.
