I can even show you "proof" that that amber trich is really CBD.. Which we all know it's THC-a, right?? oh fuck! you don't? *face palm*
I'd love to see this proof, lol. That's one of the most ignorant things I've read on RIU to date. If you let your plants flower too long all trichs will turn amber. It's actually degradation of trichomes your seeing.
Many people harvest after their special ratio of amber/clear/cloudy, that's because after some amber trichs pop up it's assumed that the plant is nearing its most resinous state and it's not likely any new trich development or plant maturity will take place. By your logic if every plant was chopped really late it defies it's own strain and starts pumping out CBD.
Could peak CBD and other compound development happen later than that of when THC potency is at its peak? It's possible, but if so, it's still got absolutely nothing to do with the color of trichomes.

Sorry for butting in but these two posts were just way off, I had to comment.

Ummm, or your other non showing plant(s) are females as well and just late to show. Its far more common for males to show first but like anything else, strain is a big factor. But if you read just a book or two you'd know this.

I just checked and the last 2 are starting to look male... They are all the same strain and all fed the same, planted in soil at the same time.. so, books don't tell you everything truthful then

I got 4 plants currently... 2 have shown signs of FEMALE while the other is showing NOTHING. yeah, real life experience here saying the claims that males show pre flowers first is hog wash and therefor debunked with my own 2 eyes. it's ok, a lot of things are wrong with the info that is put out there... Just a lot of people don't care to do the research themselves first hand
Sorry, I didn't realize that some self aggrandizing forum kid had one experience that seems to him to be slightly outside the norm, lets re-write the biology books!! Your sample size is totally large enough to "debunk" years and years of research and observation, and two plants "showing nothing" is TOTALLY the same thing as definitely being males and proving that males show later!! How has horticulture survived without you!?!?!?!?!

I could point you to multiple sources that say otherwise. MALE POLLEN SACKS POP OPEN FROM 12 HOURS to a WEEK AFTER THEY ARE FORMED!! jesus.. do you guys eve grow and look at this shit or just parrot off one another?
You say that you could.... and yet you don't. Because you can't. Because you're wrong, and the data will never support you.

Hi everyone. I just recently started my first grow after weeks and weeks of studying the great wisdom on these forums. The reason i started growing is because i was severely injured in combat back in 2007 and was tired of having to take all these pills the VA have been shoving down my neck when mj seems to help better with most of the residual effects i have stemming from my injuries.
Thank you for your service brother. I came home from Iraq in '07 as well. After starting to smoke again for the first time in over 10 years (which is when i enlisted), it took me off of 4 DAILY medications. I feel like myself again which is something I haven't felt since I came home.

Best of luck friend.

if you know my history you'd be surprised. who's to say I wasn't one of the pot pioneers that started a wonderful revolution? huh?

You said two were showing female and two were showing nothing (in all caps for emphasis), 15 mins later you posted and said they were males. I believe that is what thecannacove means.

I just checked and the last 2 are starting to look male... They are all the same strain and all fed the same, planted in soil at the same time.. so, books don't tell you everything truthful then
jesus fuck can anyone READ these days???!
 
But how did it go from NOTHING to starting to show male in 15 mins? But I suppose it is easier to ignore that bit since it doesn't really do much good for your argument. I really don't want to argue, I mean that sincerely. I just really get aggravated seeing people like you being mean and carrying on at a place I come to for advice, information and just support for growing man. I, and I assume many on this site, can't talk or share this information with any of the people I know. If you disagree with someone you can say so, but have the human decency to be polite about it. If they still disagree then drop it. Why do you need people to believe you're right? If you are right they should come to the same conclusion as you with time. I have only experienced one male, but haven't been growing long. He showed about a week before the girl that started growing the same day has him. Don't bring hate to this site. I like this community. People share ideas and experiences, draw your own opinions from your grow.

Yeah, I can read. I read this 15 minutes before your "starting to show male" post. From NOTHING to "starting" to show male in 15 mins.. impressive bro :what: smh

Oh and how the %*¿& does a plant "start" to look male? There's 3 possibilities, not showing, looks female, looks male... No starting to look like something. Go germinate more means on you graphics card. Lol.

Hey thanks for your service as well brother. Pretty awesome to have someone I can relate with on RIU. Hell we may have operated in some of the same AO'S. I will def be following you as I have read some of your past posts and you seem to have your stuff squared away. Hope its cool with you if I can pick your brain now and then if I run into any issues I cant solve on my own. Thanks
