Can't tell if female or male

We're in the same boat kid. I started this season with this Strawberry Sour Diesel you see in the first 3 pics and a NYC Diesel femmed auto....(last 2 pics). I'd also had an LSD & LA Woman who didn't make it as a result of newbie mistakes & clumsiness.
Both are right at 65 days old from seed. Today I went to feed & noticed little sacs on my SSD . Up to this point I'd been so proud & filled with excitement & anticipation. I'd even employed a vigorous regimen of lst & supercropping to which she responded beautifully....... Only to learn that she..... was a HE! Yeah folks, I'm coming to grips with the reality of it. The denial stage is wearing off & I'm mustering up the courage to chop his ole dusty ass down as we speak.
As consolation to myself, I've already begun to germ an Afghani, a White Walker Kush, & a Lemon Kush (all feminized). The SSD came from a pack of regular seeds & I just rolled the dice & kept my fingers crossed hoping for a girl, but oh well, dems the breaks kids. Don't feel too bad Leothin, it happens to the best of us. Get rid of it & keep on truckin'.
You've got a bright future of successes ahead of you.

I do not want to off like an asshole.jpg So, I will be cordial....1st Welcome to RIU!! We are glad you're here. 2nd it is considered rude to begin a new topic about your grow in someone else's thread. If you start your own threads, you will get 2 things and you will avoid a 3rd. You will get more responses...you will get better responses...and you will avoid feeding trollz.(which unfortunately we do have here)...:bigjoint::peace::bigjoint::peace:
 
Thank you for your cordial approach, but I don't think I began a new topic about my own grow.
I think i succeeded in what i intended which was to answer his question by offering both verbal and visual aid. And while I did go into to some detail about my similar experience.....isn't that what topic related threads are for? He's got a male plant, and so do I. Is it notacctable to trade stories, questions, and experiences as long as all of the above mentioned are topic related? Or am I missing something here entirely? I didnt see the need to start a new thread as I don't need feedback about my grow...this was strictly intended to offer any help that I could in relation to this particular thread.
It's never my intention to introduce myself to a community & introduce rude or offensive behavior in the same breath & being that the op isn't the one complaining , I think that he too realizes that I was simply trying to be helpful & offer support & encouragement to a fellow newbie.

Well, apparently I tweaked some nerve there. My apologies dude. I meant no offense...just giving a friendly 'heads up' prior to someone else maybe not being so nice to say the same thing but, in a rude and demeaning manner. :peace:

Well i would not go and cull this thing just yet curious how old is it ???
I does look like balls forming but i always wondered how many cull to quick give it another week or 2 seriously be 100 percent positive ,, Can't imagine how many culled a female plant thinking it was a male
for instance my plant last week was showing me signs of being a male plant and was both unhappy and also happy as its one nice naturally growing plant with perfect structure if its being either male or female ..
If it was to be a male it might be a good stud, nice tight internodes , nice bush lateral branching etc growth rates fast but not overly 5th - 6th week veg and today the plant decided to spread its legs only to show me its a women :)

Hey, it happens man..... no ill feelings here whatsoever.
I'm just here to learn as much as I can & also give back by helping in any way that I can.
I could tell that by the content of your reply...even though I still think it was a diverted thread jacking...LOL!!! Just Kiddin'

You are most welcome to the forum...stick around a while..it gets very interesting. You'll see things you would not believe. Some things that work miracles and others that will make you want to cry and call the cannabis plant abuse hot-line!
 
Ok, well (it) sprouted March 24th. Since then I've had it under 200 watts of cfl lights along with one other plant, a NYC Diesel auto who's about done now. (Maybe another week or so til harvest.)
I've got a 600w HPS & MH system, but no tent, only a small closet with no way of venting & that 600 watter, even with the dimmable ballast at half power with my closet door cracked (& leaking valuable light) puts off SERIOUS heat! Geez,....I had no idea what I was getting into with that thing! So I kept em under cfls for say....the first 7 weeks, then put em outdoors about 3 weeks ago so this plant is right at 10 weeks old. Man you don't know how hard it is for me to cull this thing. How I wish it'd turn out to be female, but I seriously doubt it.....this things got balls bigger than me! But then again.... I guess since I don't have any other sexually mature females to put in jeopardy at the moment..... it really couldn't hurt to wait & see huh?

Hey man, nothing wrong with agreeing to disagree! Individuality makes the world go round. And after its all said & done, just as long as no one feels disrespected, or that their toes have been trampled on in the end....it's all good imo.
And I believe wholeheartedly in what you said. After all...it's why I joined!
Thanks for the warm welcome, and I look forward to learning a ton from you guys!

Not a problem. Ive developed an affinifty for & an attachment to my plants, so it kills me to hafta "put em down", so to speak, but other than that factor....I don't feel bad at all. I've messed up several plants thus far & am not ashamed to admit it for every trial has been an enormous educational tool for me. I'm not proud to be a plant killer, but with every f@#k up.....the more I learn, & thus the better cultivator & caretaker I become.

Thanks for all the input guys , I ended up transplanting it into a forest hella far away from my house, I got 1feminized early miss auto flower at around 4 weeks old and multiple other strains in my backyard, I was sad to get rid of my biggest one but at least I have some plants that are doing good. Happy harvests :)
