For even money, I'd bet "female". If you're still vegging, it's definately new growth.thank you Hugo, but you meen better to wait a bit more?
Hi Hugo, I was wondering , is it possible that topping a plant can cause hormonal interruption to it and make it shoot out some male flowers(in genral , not this case , because you were totaly right about new growth, looks like male flower)??No.
Looks like new growth to me. Nanners come in clusters, and are on little teeny-tiny stems.
Sorry about that , i was confused that day when i saw those BALLS on the plant.You fucking crushed my dreams...I thought there was going to be a painting of an ifffy male plant in here with the title..since you posted it in the inspired art section.........Dream Crusher
Stress can cause male flowers, yes, but only during floweriing.Hi Hugo, I was wondering , is it possible that topping a plant can cause hormonal interruption to it and make it shoot out some male flowers(in genral , not this case , because you were totaly right about new growth, looks like male flower)??
Thanks alot, cuz i shifted them too late on 12/12 and one of them turned to a monster (the one i didnt Top)and now has flowers on it , i was thinking to cut the top of it , but now i know its stupid to do it this much late, so i tie him down as possible.Stress can cause male flowers, yes, but only during floweriing.
New growth & pre-flowers can look alike, so I wait until the real flowers show up during 12/12 to sex the plants. Males generally show first, and at a longer light interval something around 14/10.
Generally you need to veg it for a week and then flip to 12/12, then it will show sex in a week or two. But some males will show male parts even in veg stage.How old does a seedling need to be before one can sex it?
Hi, somebody told me 5 weeks Vegging and 8 weeks for flowering , so i did that procedure but this cauzed them to grow extremly big and exceed my space limits. so if i want to keep them in the desired size and height , when i have to shift them on 12/12? somebody said when they reach 60% of desired size you have to switch em on 12/12... or Top them and things like that...but i dont know yet what to do , atleast for my next grow.Generally you need to veg it for a week and then flip to 12/12, then it will show sex in a week or two. But some males will show male parts even in veg stage.
So after flipping to 12/12 to find sex, can you place it back if veg, so your girls don't have tits at 5 years old? Or must you continue 12/12 from that point on all little and immature? Just to sex it would be a waste, but to have it develop that long naturally could be catastrophic to a crop.Generally you need to veg it for a week and then flip to 12/12, then it will show sex in a week or two.

Yeah I was just talking very basic facts, not best practice. Like you said... A faster/better way to do it is to grow the seedling (we will nickname this plant P1) in veg stage, and when it grows about a foot high, and has a side branch- you clone/cut that side branch and this clone will develop roots. Once the roots are showing, your clone was successful. So next put that clone into 12/12 and wait for it to show sex. If the clone shows female pistils great, you can keep P1 as your mother plant and make more cuts and share them with your friends. If the clone turns out to be a male, you can destroy P1. Or you can keep P1 for future breeding project. Most people destroy the males to keep their plant count down.So after flipping to 12/12 to find sex, can you place it back if veg, so your girls don't have tits at 5 years old?
