Consolidated Sexing Thread - You Show Yours / I'll Show Mine

[Ravenplume]

Alright. Making a brand spanking new discussion that is open to everyone to show and tell their plants and get help and opinions on whether male or female. Perhaps, if this thread really takes off, the PTB can make it a sticky thread.

That said, here is my first entry. Posted this in my Feyleaf journal, but my journals tend to be very lightly trafficked.

This is a Feyleaf Lite that went through my 14/10 Dark/Light cycle and is now revegging. Am I correct in guessing that this one is indeed a girl?

If so, she will go in a 5 gallon bucket as my main for FL Lite and get to grow out normally over the season.

 

[Sueet]

Yes, female. The leaves look irregular but I cannot see them clearly, have you had a bug issue perhaps? I see what could be some webbing maybe?

 

[Ravenplume]

Fabulous! Now I can finally officially open the main grow journal for the season (which is primarily for the primaries for each strain and pseudo-strain I'm doing.)

 

[Ravenplume]

Yes, female. The leaves look irregular but I cannot see them clearly, have you had a bug issue perhaps? I see what could be some webbing maybe?

Haven't had any pest issues with my plants so far, other than one habanero that had something on it a while back. However, I think a little spider had also set up shoppe on that one and did its job as expected.

I am also going to take a wild ass guess and figure the irregularities in the leaves are likely a sign that she is revegging.

And now, here is Bitter Sweet Pie-S:00, which looks like it will be redesignated to S:01 as the first boy of the project.

He is certainly a healthy looking boy, and will hopefully get to be one of 2 in an operation I call the Double Cross. Instead of breeding BSP Lite siblings and Bubblegum Lite siblings back together, I am instead going to have a BG Lite boy pollinate a BSP Lite girl and a BSP Lite boy pollinate a BG Lite girl, which by the specifications I am developing, should give a pair of new Wildlings to work with and then breed into pures end of this season.

Still will likely eventually breed the lites back into pures, once I come up with suitable names for the results.

I think what @Sueet saw, as I did, was the leaf in your photo with what is very similar to spider mite damage (the little white areas all over the leaf from the tiny critters sucking the juice from them)
I blew up the pic in that area, there are 3 dark areas that look like bugs....spider mites maybe? I would check your plant carefully with a magnifier. If it's just specs of dirt, that's cool....but I've had those buggers in grows before.

 

[Sueet]

The webbing I was referring to is circled in the pic, and it is definitely not a normal spider web. Between the speckles on the leaves and the webbing it is definite, you have spider mites. (you can see the mites hanging in the web)

 

[Absorber]

Yes a female but you definitely have mites as mentioned even the male has mite damage

Got another nice day coming up. Hopefully a few hours of sun might help?

 

[Ravenplume]

This one was easy to tell. In fact, sexing them is getting easier now as I am getting more experienced to know what to look for.

I only had this one on 14/10 for a day. I'm guessing something triggered flowering in him a couple weeks back for his crown to be that heavy with pollen sacs already. If he survives and thrives after I give him a planter, he will be the primary breeding boy for the Pair:0 Birthday Spankings. And of course, there will be several other things companioning with him. Just haven't decided what he rooms with yet.

 

[Ravenplume]

Alright. Time to present my first round, one of each subject that I am growing. They have been off of flowering lighting for a while now. At this point, I can't really tell for certain, but I would have thought I would see flowers of some sort by now.

So going to keep this at 2 plants per post. And going alphabetically, we begin with both Birthday Spankings...from breeding Pairs 0 and 1.

Pair:0's baby..

Not the best shot, but the full shot ain't what matters. Here's the important bits.

And then likewise, Pair:1's baby...

I'll show the next pair: Bittersweet Pie Lite and Bubblegum Lite in a little while. 4:20 now...

 

[013]

old eyes however to me pics #3 & #6 look female

 

[Ravenplume]

So both babies then. Will keep a closer eye on them for certain. It is looking promising, on all of them actually, considering how quickly the Wildling:01, Bitter Sweet Pie Lite, and Feyleaf G:00 boys manifested.

The baby from Pair:1 will get to go in the cage this year (The gal that made the Pair:0 seeds had the Birthday spot last year.) Pair:0 will just be getting a 5 gallon bucket.

Plan for the cage this year, south to north and west to east are: Purple Ghost Candy, Feyleaf Generation:00/2022, Bubblegum Lite:2023, and Birthday Spanking-Pair:1/Generation:00/2023

All other project mains get either one of the 2 bigass planters my neighbor abandoned or a 5 gallon bucket.

Got some eBay and Etsy work to do now, then will show the next pair: Bitter Sweet Pie Lite and Bubblegum Lite.

The webbing I was referring to is circled in the pic, and it is definitely not a normal spider web. Between the speckles on the leaves and the webbing it is definite, you have spider mites. (you can see the mites hanging in the web)

Good catch. After looking at the stigma/pistils I noticed the small dots all over just about every leaf and said "Mites" to myself. Completely missed the little bit of webbing with the Mites on it until you pointed it out.

By the time the insects are building webs their population is getting large enough to be concerning.

 

[Ravenplume]

Next pair up for perusal are Bitter Sweet Pie Lite and Bubblegum Lite.

First, Bitter Sweet Pie Lite...

These have all been off of flowering lighting for quite some time now, and this is all that shows as preflowers. Very likely that if pollen sacs haven't manifested by now, it is a girl.

Bubblegum Lite appears to be in the same boat.

And as you will see with the next entries, so is everything else.

Next group soon.

 

[Ravenplume]

Feyleaf. Don't have a Feyleaf Lite ready to show for this at the moment.

 

[Ravenplume]

And finally, the oldest of what I call my two Wildlings...

Wildling-00:2019

And Wildling-01:2023
