I can't see the preflower area...could you get a clearer picture of that area? Do not want to say untill I can see better.

I think the one on the left is male...the one on the right...still can't see. Iam80 percent certain that it's male but better pictures will make this alot easier.

One on left is definitely a male sorry. Unless you want pollinated plants (which isn't a bad thing, just think about how many seeds you'll get and be able to grow) you'll just have to cut it down. But just because your plant becomes pollinated does not mean it will not be potent. Honestly I'd keep it and just grow the seeds if you get any females.

edit: Now that I look close the one on the right looks like a female if I'm correct. I think I see a pistil pointing up on the internode near the top.

The first plant is definitly a male.

The second is, well, debatable. Mainly because of the fact that it's an unclear image.

Personally I think it looks like a male.

same as everyone else said male on the left at least

Take it and plant it out doors and start breeding! You could pollinate just a single area.

yea i figured the one on the left was def a male the one on the right not sure. i really dont want to pollinate any of my plants should i let my males grow longer, or just pull them up and use there lights on my females. also can the males be smoked?? i mean they can but they have just barely started to flower so thc levels cant be very high, and well thats basically my main objective. first time so still unsure of what to do

go ahead and pull the males before they drop pollen. I waited too long my first grow and got some seeds in my bud oh well it was only bagseed :rastasmoke:

If males could be smoked or it if were worth it I don't think you'd hear about a lot of male marijuana deaths. You'd be hearing more about them having separate rooms for growth for more THC. It's not worth it. The minute you identify a plant as a male if you are dead sure you don't want it you have to kill it.

I'd yank the males yesterday. Before I worried about getting seeds I'd pick the best pheno and grow a mom to take clones from. Growing from seed blows in my opinion unless you want to start a new strain. I much prefer knowing I am growing all females and have a nice even canopy. Much much much more efficent. But, I guess we all grow differently.

Not to mention that by the time you germ, veg for 8 or so weeks, sex, etc etc........I got another crop in jars

By the way, the one on the left is male, I am 99% sure of that.

Keep em green,
