Male and Female

[statikco]

I had 2 outdoor plants, one i found out it was a male few weeks ago and cut that down. couple weeks after cutting down the male plant, i found out the second one was a female, but now I've noticed that it has balls on the bottom of couple branches. Did the male plant pollinate the female?

Its a hermie.

Carefully cut off the balls with a blade. Make sure not to pop any.

If all three photos are different parts of the same plant, it is a hermie. Destroy it.

If it's his only outdoor plant, he shouldn't destroy it. Better hermie than nothing.

There are informed people here who would disagree with you. Please explain why keeping a genetic cripple is a good idea?

He can cut off the pollen sacs and the bud will still be smokable. Please explain why no cannabis is better than lightly seeded cannabis.

I concur...

In a way you may be correct, but it seems like more trouble than it would be worth. I would suggest getting some more seeds going, right away.

the female looks fine and healthy,no balls on it whatsoever,if it was a herm then yes it should be killed,seedy pot sucks all together no matter what prospective you look at

I have no weed. I haven't had any weed for the last few weeks. There has been no weed around here all summer. I'm growing outdoors, but I don't have anything until october-ish. I would much rather have free weed with a few seeds with it than not have anything at all.

See? From that perspective, no, it should not be killed.

i beg to differ some seeds aint bad it depends how it all goes down .

when i cut the "sacs" off, more pistils grew out of it, so is it a full female, and not a hermie? I only see those "sacs" only couple places on the plant, rest of them don't have "sacs"

For sure a hermie.....you will be battling the little nuts the whole grow if you plan on continually removing them. Do as the others suggest....kill he/she or just let the shemale do it's thing and have some bud....with seeds but still bud.

i also have a male plant that i removed from the rest of the grow and is growing in my greenhouse it is a good distance away and inside so it wont polnate the others unless a bee comes in the green house and takes some polin and then polnates my females but i dout that. any ways i want to make hash with the male or something what would you suggest i dont have any money to buy bubble bags so what could i do to make hash with this male plant? should i just let it grow untill it's big as it gets heres a picture of it.

That is a really nice looking male. Put some of the pollen in a ziplock bag and stick it in the fridge for future breeding. People used to use a small silk screen to sift the plant choppings from the trichomes. I guess you can still buy a cheap silk screen for under $20 at an art supply store.
