Default I got it wrong
Well i checked the plant i took outside and repotted into garden plant pot and it turns out to be female today shit. So can i use this as a mother in a couple of months if i just leave it out there?

here are some pics of the 6 i have left which all look female

let me know what u think as this is my first time at anything gardening wise.

As you can see on one of the photos it has been moved outside now and has been theer for a few hours and got bugs all over it

It is not going back in the grow room now anyway. All other pics to follow hope you can advise me from there.

Many thanks
A mother plant must stay in constant vegetative growth a light cycle of 18hr on and 6 off so dont leave it outside when it gets close to winter it will bud

I currently have the same problem. What it is, is that not all feminized strains are stable. I purchased The Church from Greenhouse Seeds and that is one of them... it cost me $5 a seed, no wonder. To make a feminized seed you do all of these things that essentially stress a female plant hermie. So unless the seedbank/breeders have stabilized the strain to no longer be hermie (there are good feminized strains out there), the plant is highly likely to be hermie just as its genetics are. What I do is use my thumb to rub off all of the seed balls. Of course you'll have plenty of obvious bud sites, so you need to look for the seed spots... they're very small. Check out my Church plant that went hermie recently, also under a 600watt HPS:

I just looked at your pics again, and I think you might be right in having a pure female plant. I'd still be skeptical for seed balls because you never know.

No, my plant "The Church" is definitely a hermie because it is an unstable feminized strain. The person who posted this thread said they had feminized seeds that they thought were male, and I was inferring that a lot feminized strains are hermie by nature because the genetics haven't been fine-tuned yet.

I think the person who posted this thread has feminized plants that are perhaps purely female, with no hermie traits, implying that they have a stable feminized strain growing, whereas I do not. I am growing other feminized strains that aren't showing hermie traits yet, so for now I'm assuming "The Church" from GreenHouse Seeds is an unstable strain when feminized.

Hi all,
what i was saying is that i thought female preflowers didn't look anything like balls on sticks but the balls on the cheese sprouted hairs out of them with no other ball traits, although i did go on one romoving some of the balls then got paranoind that i was killing preflowers which i was. i have another cheese plant which looks abit doubious will post new pics soon. The one that is outside is staying out there as i dont want to intoduce dieses or bugs to grow room. pics will be done in a few hours. need my meds then ill get on it

That last pic looks like opening seed pods. All of the other pics looks like female pre-flowers. You'll get the hang of it soon. Seed pods are distinctly like balls, where as female pre-flowers and resin glands are more like sideways tear drops that should have white pistils starting to come out of them. You can even feel the different if you rub your thumb gently on them.

can a male seed pod open after only 2 weeks of 12/12? i would of thought the plant would need to be much more mature. I hope so otherwise im gonna have alot of seeds . here are close ups on a couple of same on 2 plants
