Is this Male or female?

Hey everyone. I’m growing some bag seeds of Pink Runtz outdoors and they are starting to pre-flower. Two plants are showing the pistils. However, I have two more that I’m not sure of. If they are male I want to make sure I get rid of them asap.
Plant 1

Doesn’t look like plant 1 is showing enough to determine. Plant 2 is looking male, but I’d wait a few more days to make sure.

Looks like it too. My neighbor said to use his switch spray, but I have no clue what that is

It's Ethephon and if your plants a male it's a male. You can get it to suppress male inflorescences using ethephon but it's not going to make a male into a plant worth growing if you're looking for harvestable bud.

Just wait until you're sure what sex it is. You have plenty of time. If they're male then either turn them into compost or collect pollen for making seeds and then turn into compost.

The reversal spray most people use is Florel because it's easy to get. It's been sold for a long time for other uses. There are some that spray it on female plants that hermie. While it may stop any further formation some would not smoke a plant sprayed with it.

Bottom line is that if you're growing regular seeds and not feminized no spray is going to be of any use if you have a true male plant.

Thanks for the input. I’ll just wait it out and dispose of it, if it’s a male. Thanks again!
 
Switch is a product from optic foliar that reduces the chance of developing male flowers or nanners when sprayed at certain times before and after flowering is initiated. I have it, but never used it. It won't turn a male into a female. It's is a pgr.
