well after looking at all the pic's on line i thought it would be easy to differentiate between males and females. I was wrong. Here are two pics of the same plant, there seems to be a kola on top and little balls clustered around the stems were branches break off, but there are also to large balls? I'm guessing its a hermie. I have other plants that just have the clusters around the stem were major stems break off, but they dont have the balls hanging . take a look at the pics and tell me what you think.
male, female or hermie? Please help the new guy

k its a male. I'm glad to know. If you look in the second pic, you can see little clusters next to the two large balls. I have others plants with those same clusters next to the stems but without the two large balls and without the male flower on the top. Do you think those are male or female?

It's a male kill it, as far as a female it would have little tiny white hairs coming out of it, the males dont grow the hairs.. The hairs are what help catch the pollen when the males release it into the air..

He was just trying to help you out, don't bite the hand that feeds. The balls are what tell it as a male, the female will have little oval-like pods with two hairs coming out of it.

All you have to do is look for the balls they look like a little cluster of grapes
i didnt mean to bite,its just a lot different seeing a zoomed in pic on the comp and looking at a plant in real life. its weird because I have several plants that have these balls on the stems several nodes up but I have not been able to identify any females, and I thought that males and females showed their sex at the same time.

They don't always show at the same time usually with a week or so of each other but your plants won't always show at the same time.. It's like puberty for people not all people start puberty at the same time..
