5 Males Out Of 6 Total! Help Me Sex My Plants.

sqhschief · Oct 8, 2009

I think I only have one female out of 6 total. :cry:

NOTE: All captions are for above photo.

This one here on the right is one I believe to be male.

This one on the left is my only female thus far.

My other three.

Genitalia from plant in first pic, I think male.

Another shot of the first plant.

Only pistils on any of the plants.

Plant 2 in question.

Genitalia from plant 2.

Plant 3.

Plant 3's preflowers.

So what do you guys/girls think of plants one, two, and three?

If they are all male but the one, could I go back to 18/6 and get some clones off the single female? I have just started flowering six days ago, thanks!

How long can I give them before I'll know for sure? I don't want to kill them without knowing definitely.

I think you only have 1 female that I can see...... I would throw her back in veg and make clones from her

Hi miss Jats, you don't think it will matter that it has already been flowering for close to a week? Thanks!

No it will be fine.....change the light cycle now...back to 6/18 and she'll be reveging in a week or so :^)

your pictures confused me for a sec i jus blazed a bowl of sum fine permafrost but plants 1 threw 3 are all male..im guessing u just threw that random female pic in there to compare to the other three...srry for the confusion....

You are identifying sex properly. And yes, you can reveg the female and take clones. I believe those buds/pistils are preflowers, not actual bud sites, yet. So, if you plan to reveg, do so NOW.

Thanks guys. I really can't believe the luck, 1 of 6 female, insane.

You could just isolate the males and collect the pollen to make more seeds. You can always just leave them in there to do the job naturally. However, if you collect the pollen, you can just brush a few buds to get seeds while the other buds remain unseeded.

That's what I think folks should be doing when they pay for their seeds and only get like 5 or 10. Take the time out to make more seeds first so you have a collection of genetics.

Then, you deal with the mothers and clones and so on. It may take a while to get to your first completely smokeable crop but you won't need to buy those seeds again.

My friend did the same thing with some super silver haze gifted to him from a grower in NYC. He got about 8 "magic beans" and now he has well over 200. He's always doing it with a new strain while growing purely smokeable crop in another space.

edit: Just make sure you pick your best performing male and female as the parents as a way to encourage better genes within the particular strain

Well at least you will be cloning girls! Good luck doing that here is a great thread if you needed help----> https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/15030-batch-clones-rockwool.html
What nutes were you feeding them they look a nice lush green?

Happy Growings

sqhschief · Oct 9, 2009

Here we go, my first time killing a male, and my first time cloning.

I started 15 plants outside this past spring and only got 4 females...

I feel your pain

Stgeneziz · Oct 9, 2009

my entire first grow was males..... good learning experience.

NobodyNunya · Oct 9, 2009

I just posted almost the same thing as you did only I had 10 WW seeds....only 6 germed and 5 males so now I am left with one female after 7 weeks...I am not cloning I am just going to get feminized seeds this time. Completely frustrating and this is my first grow.
