Sex Confirmation?

Hey everyone! First post, and first time grower.

I have two plants on an indoor system. I switched them over to flower about two weeks ago. Yesterday I saw what I thought might be a male pods. I pulled it out of the grow tent just in case. I took (what I assume to be) a nice clean photo and would love your thought to wether or not it appears to be a male. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Definately a male, sorry for the bad news.

looks like a good male, will you use it for breeding?

No worries. I've got another plant in the hood. It's looking like "she's" going to be just fine. It's just a shame, since it's a rare strain. Sour Tsunami. Plus, cuts my first yield in half. If the other one ends up being female, I'd be willing to make clones for anyone who wants.

I don't have any plants for it. AND it would be a shame to let it go to waste. The Girlfriend and I were going to use it to make bitters for cocktails, or a little bit on the top of a nice IPA, giving it even MORE dank flavor.

If there's anyone in the LA area that wants him, let me know. Like I said, it'd be a shame to let this rare strain hit the trash.

Thanks for the link! I had no problem determining a pollen sack from a pistil, but it was really the first signs and just wanted some confirmation. Plus, didn't want it to blow my other plant (no pun intended).

lol forgot to say welcome to rui

I would take it but I'm in the fresno/madera area, sorry should be taste though i love eating plants..... MUAHAHAAHAHAHA males must fear me.

You can collect and store that pollen, for quite some time...

Here's the ole' boy if anyone is interested. Plus.. anyone know why my images keep getting placed rotated?

Anyway to do that without keeping in the same tent as my girl?

I failed the last time i tried storing it.... i tried paper towel and a refrigerator....

Osoi should put it in a zip lock bag or jar to keep it from moister.

It would probably work just cutting the pods off and storing them in a small glass jar right?

Well, tragedy has struck. Both plants are male. I guess I'll try again with clones next time.
