Posted this in general growing, but need as much help as i can get.
got these clones from my buddy, doesn't mean i trust him 100%. kinda getting impatient with sexing them. I know they should be all females, but it's my first time, and i gotta fear the worst. what do you guys think, or is it too early?Week four since I got em.

damn! quick question, light leak is only a prob in flowering right. meaning my mother plants are showing female right now, but can they be hiding hermie sex. can you hermie a plant in veg? if it's just a problem of light leak in the bloom room, i'll deal with it, but if the whole crop is bust then i just wasted a month and a half!:wall::wall::wall:

Hermies show Female Preflowers and sprout male pollen sacks later on the buds.

Whats shown here is a male preflower, meaning is just a regular male.

Yea, Just snatched your pic and looked at it a little more closely, and I'd have to say that I was wrong. Sometimes it's hard to tell from pics. Why did dude start cloning before he knew the sex?

They're males for sure.

A light leak messes with the plants in the veg as well as the flower. If you veg your plant with 18/6, and then you have darkness for two hours, and then a little light leaks in, it will make your plant hermie....

Like 18/6 then 12/12 the next day 14/8 then 18/6 and the last day 1/ 23 would make it hermie.

Makes sense to me, but they didn't have any white hairs! I call em hermie because they should be female clones! maybe i'm wrong, I was under the impression that in veg, light leak wasn't a problem. Makes sense about what you say with invariations of like, my veg will only be 24/0 from now on. With that being said, this sucks!

You really know how to make a guy feel better. funny how i trust RIU friends more than some of my closest! Moving on though, got two new clones from a so cal dispensiary, afgan, (or so they say). Starting fresh, kinda. And I'm getting 12 rommulet seeds tomorrow, hoping for one female. The seeds are from a very trusted source, for once! funny how you can have the shittiest day, feel like you wasted everything, and the next day by the time you turn your comp on to check your RIU, things are looking up!

ha! that's funny mang! it's just, weird to clne males, they never showed any white hairs, just what looks like pollen sacs. Chopped em all! hope it was the right thing. The two mother plants i the veg closet, (i call them mothers but they are clones that are from the same family, that i was planning on keeping for mothers) aren't showing those sacs, threw em in the bloom room today, i'll post the results in a couple of days! thanks for all of the support!
