Male or Female?

[KingJohnC]

I would not use the pollen from a hermaphrodite cannabis plant to breed with. Your plant appears to be a genetic hermaphrodite and not one produced by bolting or chemical means.

So this is a hermie? if so will it make smokable buds and or seeds?

 

[CronicHempHog]

i don't know how smokable no one usually grows out hermies its usually culled you don't want to infect other plants with the hermie genetics

 

[joedaddy805]

i can let it go full term it'll be no big deal to me.thats the only plant in flower. curious to see what it'll produce and the pics will be good for later use. ill start a new journal called my Hermie&Me!!!!!

 

[joedaddy805]

So is it a hermie or a full male. if its a male i can use it to pollinate my female if its a hermie i can either give up on it or maybe get some seeds out of it and maybe get lucky and get a female plant out of the seeds.....

I don't think smokeable buds will come from that accept for blunt filler. Also wouldn't use its genes. If you don't want to buy seeds you're better off buying another bag of weed with seeds in it. This is my current bag seed.

There is much better out there don't waste you're time and effort on the dreggs. But if you just throw them in the dirt and don't really care about it what's the harm . in the end their your plants but that bud will be trash.

The preschool teacher says, "We're going to do vocabulary today. Who can use the word 'definitely' in a sentence?"

Mary raises her hand and exclaims, "Me me me!"

The teacher says, "Go ahead, what's the sentence?

Mary replies, "The sky is definitely blue."

"That's good, Mary," says the teacher, "but the sky can also be gray or white."

Sam raises his hand and states, "Grass is definitely green."

The teacher says, "That's good, Sam, but grass can be brown, too."

Little Johnny raises his hand and asks, "Do farts have lumps in them?"

The teacher says, "No Johnny, why do you ask that?"

Little Johnny replies, "Well, I definitely shit my pants."

Lmao well played.

 

[joedaddy805]

So is anyone able to tell if this is a full male or a hermie?

 

[ShrubHub]

I dont see anything on that plant to define it 100% as a female. I see lots of things that define it as a male, my previous post was based on this info , if it is a genetic hermie it is a very strong male or its 100% male with a very strange growth pattern. In all honesty it looks like a re-vegged male to me as the nodes are more step ladder like as opposed to branches evenly on both sides. I could be wrong but I dont see a single pistil on that plant.

 

[joedaddy805]

i just want to make sure its ok to use its pollen. but i do know for sure its not female.

 

[ShrubHub]

what do you mean by ok? as in will it pollinate a flower? if thats the case , yes. It will pollinate a flower, that flower will produce seeds. You can plant those seeds and they will grow other plants. Will those plants be worth your time and effort to cultivate into buds? maybe. You have to realize that every pepper and tomato and eggplant out there has been refined. There are no natural plants on this planet really all have adapted to growing in the conditions we provide for them. MJ is one of the few that has not had millions of dollars of research and backing to produce ONLY top genetic strains. Lots of trash exists thats still just bare bones survival plant material. A plant that just wants to live will be extremely fertile and pollinate as fast as possible, these attributes are against what we look for as growers. You want a plant that can survive far into the flower period without resorting to hermie. A multi generational outdoor wild grown plant will simply not give you those genetics.

Bottom line all pollen can produce seeds (naturally)
All of those seeds can grow plants
All of those plants can produce little or no crappy bud.
For all you know that could be a borderline pure hemp variety with <1% the THC content of seeds you pay 4$ for.

I refer to my previous statement.

If its worth your time to grow random seeds from a plant you know nothing about then you dont need to ask us and nothing we can tell you will steer you in any direction you werent already going to go.

I wouldn't invest my time in that plant a minute longer unless I was getting into the hemp rope business.

 

[joedaddy805]

i think you might of miss understood my question i asked if its a male 100% or a hermie. i haven't got that answer yet. if its a pure 100% male i can use it to pollinate if its not then i won't thats all i pretty much want to know at this point.

 

[ShrubHub]

looks to be 100% male to me. If it is a hermie its pollen will still produce seeds.

 

[joedaddy805]

Well i just want to make sure its not a hermie cause then i won't use the pollen for my female plant. i do want more seeds but only from a male and female only no hermie dna wanted.

 

[KingJohnC]

I would need close ups of the nodes where the pollen sacks are sitting to make a judgment on your plant.

 

[joedaddy805]

ill go and try and take a pic right now even tho its dark out

 

[joedaddy805]

ok heres a few pics i trimmed off the fan leaves to get a better pic and show more detail.
found a branch that was broken so i decided to just break it off not like its gonna hurt this plant.

[joedaddy805]

Will these pics work or do you need a different angle
