Baby Grow - Just for fun.

Sorry, those are balls... chop em!

Although... I had 1 plant that started out with balls, which I cut off with a blade, and then go full on female.

I'm currently finishing this plant and kept a CLOSE eye on her/him... (he-she?) and never saw random male flowers pop up.. but then slowly they started to diminish as more and more female flowers started to show. It may have entirely been that I stressed the plant too much (first grow) and it went hermie from the get-go but then laxed out.

So I'd keep an eye on that plant after ripping those balls off.

I'll grab the tweezers right now :thumbsup:

It would be nice to see this plant turn female like yours, especially since it's growing pretty damn fast, and looks really healthy. Did you change any environmental factors or give any special treatment to help this happen? I'd like to do everything possible to encourage a female.

Str8 has this thread dedicated to helping with growing females.

Looking good.

Thanks man. I feel like I saw that before but forgot it was there haha. Thanks for reminding me :thumbsup:.

I picked off those pesky balls. They're forming at every internode, so I'm not sure ill be able to save this one I'll give it some time before I chop it though.

I'm sorry man, tough break but it's a learning process regardless. Good luck on the other one!

Well the biggest problem I had from the get-go was I never pH adjusted my nute solution (growing in coco). So I had my pH all out of wack, once I fixed that and cut off all the male parts. The plant started to grow bracts everywhere and then I started to notice stigmas coming out. Maybe a week later I found a few more balls but that all stopped and my plant went full female.

So.. check your pH?

Haha, thanks redtails. It's not like this is my first ever male, but it pains me every time!

I'm fairly certain the other will be female. Its almost as if I can feel it... :thumbsup: Did I mention that I LOVE Sour Diesel? :stoned:

Gah, I really should do that. It's probably time I went and got a full blown ph checking/adjusting system. Like a Ph pen and some Ph up/down. I can probably do it on friday! Thanks again for the help. :jointsmile:

To save a little bit of money, I just bought a PH Pen and PH down, if I adjust the PH to low, I just add water to raise the PH.
