Male of Female?

Alright, first off I had a terrible accident and a light fell on the small plant you see there. It was about four times as big but I had to clip it where the light broke the stem. Do you guys think it will still produce bud? It happened on the first day of 12/12. The other pictures are of a couple other ones. I am pretty sure I have at least one male, but doesn't one of the pictures look like a female? Day 5 of 12/12 at picture time. Screw this shit I am using all feminized seeds from now on!

Hey there axg8750. Sucks when ya break your plants man, never good times. As everyone's saying, 3 and 4 are males, 2 is hard to tell, maybe a shot of it like the others, not from the side of the shoot.

Also, if you can....
Why not just start with 10 seeds. Grow them all, and clone them all. Flower your plants while keeping the clones in veg. Once you've weeded out the males and their offspring, you're left with how ever many females. May not be much, but then you could make a mother out of one of your new clones, and then have a fresh supply of 100% females every 10-15 days.

Hope your busted plant makes a glorious comeback, and it and 2 are female and you have a nice little harvest. Good luck man, hope your next experience with the cultivation is better.

Yeah, thanks for the advice. I definitely am not giving up, but it sucks to put that much time and effort into these things to end up getting nothing in the end. Pool, I hear what you are saying about the clone idea, I have never tried it and am nervous I will mess something up. Anyway, I have 5 feminized PPP seeds on the way from Nirvana seeds. Are feminized seeds all they are cracked up to be? And has anyone ever experimented with this strain?

I have never bought them nor will I ever. From what I've read, yes they are feminized but you can end up with more hermies than males and they cost a helluva lot more than normal seeds. price does it for me on this issue.
I am however very interested in growin PPP, will you be doing a journal of these?

The only time you should buy feminised seeds, is when you plan on growing 1 or 2 plants. Alot of fem seeds turn out hermie, some more hardcore than others, and alot of runts. No good for making mums either, usually hermie. Some good can be found, but not nearly as easy with M/F seeds.

I never bought them, will never buy them. Regular Nirvana seeds for no more than $30 USD, with alot more variety.... How much were your fem seeds?
