Okay, so I had a plant growing for a while...Posted some pics yesterday and fdd tells me it's a male :cry: I only had one plant going just for fun, so it's not so bad. Though I'd prefer a female, this plant is too pretty to kill! I don't want to hurt it... What should I do? Is there anything amazing you can do with male plants? Does anyone know how to make some hemp? :hump: Hahaha....

I have this thing growing under 4x 23w 5500k CFLs on 18/6 if anyone cares. It's been like 2 months, it was root bound twice haha...it being my first plant ever I'm amazed it survived. Do you guys think that would have been the reason it turned out male? I can't remember if I read that the plants sex was based on genetics or environment.

Oh, and the sexing pics can be seen here:

How can anyone fucking tell in pics like that its a male...fucking rubbish, and idiots. Im about sick of it.
By the way nice plant, and the only way to tell if its male or female is to flower it in 12/12 and if i read correctly you are not in flowering stage. Sometimes you might get preflowers if its a mature plant.
Where are these other pics....????
Nothing you can really do with a male but you can collect the pollen from it and use it to pollinate parts of females to get seeds....other than that you can keep it or kill it...I know how you feel i did 3 of mine in like that...;(

The attatched pics are some pics of the plant. The link is some macro photos I took of the upper nodes. All of the pics that are linked in my first post are of the same single plant I have.

Hey this is CaliGrowin my friend is logged in, but yeah...I don't know if you can make hash or not with a male plant. Would it be worth it? I just put the thing into flowering today to see what it becomes.
