RE: Attention Growers: Week 4 And I'm Getting Ready To Cull

in #cannabis7 years ago (edited)

Hi rebeccaryan, from what I can tell you have topped the plant and those look like they can be new shoots for leaf growth. I would hang in there for a few days before making a decision. Typically male auto flower plants show there sex at around 4-5 weeks and in my experience females around 6-7 weeks. This varies according to your growing technique and experience. Hydro will mature faster than a organic soil grow for example. I hope this helps :-)

Sort:  

Yes, I have topped these plants. Thanks for taking a look and sharing what you think @bitminter. I inadvertently let my first garden become pollinated as I was learning what a male looks like. I an trying like not repeat that mistake with this garden (if I can help it). I produced what felt like a thousand seeds and I'm tired of sorting them. LOL!

Make sure you spray everything down with water, if you haven't already. Pollen hangs around for forever, unless it gets wet and germinates. ;)

That pictures looks female, so far. :D

Great information! Thank you for adding it. I was very careful @thecleangame, I used 10% acetic acid (cleaning vinegar) at full strength to clean EVERYTHING.
Walls, ceiling, floors, light, fans, vents and trays, before I started this garden.

Thumbs-Up! :D

hahaha yes sorting can be a pain in the butt and accidentally smoking a seed can be nasty and make you cough your lungs out! :-) I just did a quick post on the topic of feminization and shared your post.

Hope it helps keep us posted I am almost positive you have a female there but I could be wrong. Cheerz

Personally, I'm Still Waiting on Proof

ethlyene is a good way to produce feminized seeds (peel gives off ethylene). The last thing you want is your prized females to rip off their skirts, at the first sign of a hot day at the beach, and let their balls hang out.

The Proven Way

to get feminized seeds, is to create feminized pollen with ST or Colloidal Silver Solutions. I'll be posting a HOWTO in the next couple weeks. I have a reversed Early Dane which is about to start dropping feminized pollen in a few days. ;)

Go Be Awesome!

I have read about colloidal silver for doing just what you are talking about. Please send me a comment when you post your article. I don't want to miss it with everything that I have got going on at the moment. ;)

I will do my best. :) I'm high functioning autistic, so even notes don't help at times. lol :D

Thank you so much! I have upvoted and resteemed it. It's fantastic information. Thanks for sharing this. ;)
Here's a photo of another Apollo 13 (out of the same group of seeds):

I thought it was a pollen sac, too. What do you think?
