this is as good as my cam gets

I'm not seeing any hairs,... ( at least nothing I can be certain are hairs) but LOTS of sacks,... it's male. Healthy too,... you done good but I'm afraid you struck out on this one.


If you are getting hairs as well as the sacks the plant isn't herm, it's Asexual.

Difference being a herm will grow one hair and one nanner out of the same flower, an asexual plant will make full complete flowers of both gender each being all male or female. It's a genetic trait that will cause Asexuality, whereas Herming can be caused by environmental stresses.

its definatly got pistols. and it also looks like developing pollen sacks. lots of small growths on the innards of the plant was makin me think female, i thought males were skinnier without so much veg growth goin on. meh ill give "it" another thurough lookin at in the morning. im definatly in denial.

Here's a pic of a true HERM flower that I found tonight,.... probably gonna cull the plant


Pic: Obviously caught this one early!

well if its a male.....ill boil it down and see if it does anything. i read everywhere that males have no THC but then i read they do but way less....at least i kno MJ can and will survive here in this particular soil without any help really....

id like to thank everybody that helped me learn more :jointsmile:

its not over yet....

If it is a male try and be considerate of any other outdoor growers within a few miles of you and cull it!!!!!!



I'm a newb to growing myself and am still working on perfecting my grow but I know that I (personally) don't have any males in my back yard, so if my outdoor plant has seeds I'm gonna be pissed!!!!


Just a matter of respecting the growers that "might" be around you.

yea i hear ya on that. very unlikely anyone near me is growing. BUT if they were and mine was a male, i suppose it would be best to chop it up for mulch or it could pollinate and alert others of nearby operations......man im paranoid now.

i know im breaking one of the MJ growers golden rule by letting it live, but i gotta see how it goes. maybe its herm. ive only invested $20 and stoned time, plus the knowledge seems priceless.
