Hey guys. I have a plant that has entered the preflower stage and I noticed some growth where the preflowers emerge. I have Jorge Cervantes book indoor outdoor bible, on page 75 there is a picture of a male plant. It is the middle picture. there are those two little flowers growing in the internodes. Anyway, this is what my plant has. What I wanted to know is, do the females look like this too and then develop pistils out of those flowers or is this a male for sure. He states that you should wait to see if the preflowers develop pistils before trying to distinguish sex. I cant be sure if i waited long enough because these preflowers just grew within the last few days or so. I know the obvious solution is to just wait it out to see if pistils form but i wanted to know now if its a male because the suspense is killing me. By the way this is my first grow if you didnt know that already. I have some pics but no scanner until later tonight my computer is down. Oh one more thing about site security. Does everyone here use a proxy to connect or am I being paranoid.
