Looks like a dude to me, but I’m not positive. I’m sure more experienced growmies will come along.

Just means you got a male seed. All seeds come from female plants, it just depends on what kind of plant pollinated the female. If a female is induced to form male flowers, by additives or other means, the pollin will be "feminized ". When that pollen is used on a female plant it creates feminized seeds, which are 99% of the time female.

Usually, when a male plant develops tho, the seed is male and most likely from a regular plant. Regluar seeds come from female plants pollinated by full male plants. The seeds produced become a guessing game as to sex until time to flower.

If it’s a male clone, it came from a male plant.

@Staccsit22

You are going above and beyond creating multiple threads for the same thing. I have a great suggestion for you to get help you need. Use one of the many threads you have created and rename it to whatever you want as in a grow journal. Put all of your questions regarding your grows, issues, concerns in that thread which will make it easier on the forum to assist.

Having 6 threads about male vs female is hard for us to know which one you are using most often.
