Looks like a male to me. Should be fairly obvious when you compare it to the others.

I got some stuff by Humboldt County called Snow Storm Ultra. It says in the brochure that if used as a foliar spray it may sterilize male pollen, preventing seed formation. It also increases the crystals on the plants when added to the resivoir. Might want to look into it so you dont have to destroy a portion of your crop. Or chop it and train the others to occupy that space so you dont loose out too much on your yield.

I use a 400 w HPS (red), 400 w MH (blue), two 18 w 2700k tubes and 7 x 26 w 2700k spirals for flowering. I think blue light is still important for growth and THC production while red is more for bud formation and tightness. Either way, you can't have too much light.

I've heard of people removing the male flowers as they develop but it sounds like too much work for me. I would personally yank it so the rest of my crop wasn't at risk.
