Hi this is my first time growing and I am having a little problem. I have 3 plants and they all seem to be females? But I don't know I have been growing them outside for 2 months they are doing really well starting to get little hairs all over them but I don't know how to find out if they have the little balls or not! One I thought was a male but I don't know if the males have little hairs that come out of the flower buds or not? Some one please let me know I will post some pics to help.:rasta:

photos too blurry... why not do a google image search on male and female cannabis plants? then you'll know what to keep and what to reap.

do a quick search on this site .... Rusty and DP put up some photos of this within the last few days, I just cant remember what section they were in but photos are A+

Thanks for your help I am just a amature grower don't know to much if you got some tips I am growing outside right now in my back yard. Any tips would be appericated..



But thanks for the link I will keep posting pics as all my females grow... Got 3 plants and started out with more but they died now I am left with 3 females.....


I think are females cause they have all hairs I don't see little bananas or balls...

I can tell you that since you put them outside 2 months ago they would probably start to flower since the light schedule is still over 12 hours of darkness. They should be reverting back to veg right now since the days are getting longer. Should be some monsters by September or October, which should be about harvest time.

Unless they are outflower, but I don't think they are.

Just read up, knowledge is power, I've been studying/reading for over 5 years and growing for over 3 and I still have stuff to learn.

I don't want them to be huge I am trying to keep them on the DL. They are right outside my house and I would like to keep them small, Will they still bud if I keep them trimmed down? They are already starting to flower,Guess I am lucky I got 3 females out of the bunch I heard it only takes 4 months to produce? I will keep reading up on them would just like some Good input from some people that have been growing for a while. How bad does the smell get? lol. Thanks to all who have gave some good advice. What is outflower mean? :jointsmile:

If you trim them back it could be stressful to them and cause herm, but if you are living in the US the days are getting longer and there is no way they can be flowering without getting at least 12 hours of darkness which doesnt happen until around september october. A few small plants wont stink all that bad until they are midway through the flowering cycle and you have to be up close to them. outflower means nothing unless he means autoflower in which the plant will flower without needing the 12 hours of darkness.

well I don't know what you are meaning that If I live in the U.S. that my plant can't be flowering cause it isn't getting enough darkness, I live in south west florida, It gets dark around 8 and doesn't get light until 7 so they are getting almost 12 hours of darkness. My plant is flowering right now all 3 of them. There is white hairs coming out all over the plants, the buds are about the size of a nickel, and the plant stinks and is all sticky. I wish I could get some pics up here but I have a piece of junk camera.... :stoned: But thats all for right now. I will keep all posted on the progress of my babies!

on the 2nd picture I could tell they were flowering.. not on the first though.. that's cool.. to be flowering in April makes you somewhat lucky. If you would've trained them before they started flowering you could have kept them short and bushy.. now trimming them would stunt growth and cause unneccessary stress.

thank you all for the help... what i ment by keeping them small was i am just cutting the leafs that make it look bushy... I have not took anything off the top just the sides... Hopefully this will not stress the plant... She seems to be flowering nicely. I posted a vid of the smallest flower cause i had to remove the little flower in order to get the vid of it.. Take a look and let me no what you think... Thank you all for your help..:thumbsup:
