haha, are you serious? That's rotten advice dude. It's a male, you can't nueter it into being a female. That stuff at the top is not bud growth.
haha u are funnier tho talking ignorant ....
the true answer is like this : if this is ur only way to get weed in the next few months , get a x40 mag lens and watch if there are true thc trichs forming around the female parts , if they do forming some , ITS BETTER THAN NOTHING ! , once again , if u can get new beans or weed at will just throw em away ...
there are varius types of hermis ( just as humans do
) somes herm from day 1 to the end , somes herm on the middle to the end , some others herm only on the start and as they go on the lower the amount of male hormones
if all the plants comes from a single mother then u got low chances , if the plants come from seperate beans then most likely theres something in ur grow area stressing them , if u know u got a stress factor u can try lower it as possible and try to revert the plants , it has hapened not only to me but in many ppl in the past , u want end up with sinsemila A+ class of weed , but again , its better than smoking pine needles ...
to the ones that still cant understand what im saying , i dont advise anyone to loose time over herms , if he has something else to do ...
