So disappointing


Been babying these two for about 3 months and today i find out they are both males. I thought i had a handle on sexing em but i guess not. I had high hopes for these. Unknown seeds.
Got some ww autos started from ilgm i believe they are also femenized. Is there a best way to sex them?

That’s why I always just buy feminized seeds that way you don’t waste your time and energy for a big letdown. I can not tell from the picture. But I would like to see a closer look. Good luck on your next grow.

Welcome to the forum @Phoneman

From what I can tell from the pics they don’t look like males. If you could post close ups of the plants that would help. Also pics of area where you think they are showing male parts…pollen sacks

As far as the feminized Autos you will pretty much get females.

Was doin a little prunin got a small bud and cracked some seeds inside.

Hermie maybe but not a male. A male would have pollen sacs that look like bananas

Or your female was pollinated somehow

Agree with @Poseidon one of those 2 possibilities and not a full on male from the start.
Here is what a male looks like had to chop this one after it expressed in the flower tent about 6 weeks ago…

There are options you can consider to salvage things.

Great example. Nice fat pollen sacs (if you are into breeding) :+1:t2:

@agree with @Skydiver - it won’t be “sense” but if it is just a seedy bud, it would bring back memories of High School weed…

Still has THC and CBD, just not like pure sensamila

I would finish them and just de-seed after dry and cured… Maybe grow the seeds and weed out males… You have options

You would need to remove all pollen sacks. And then inspect for them cause if one gets by and drops pollen you could …could…pollinate another plant that’s in flower…if in veg not much worry…
So if you have both flowering (they can get pollinated) and vegetative stage they won’t be pollinated…you could continue and just inspect daily and remove them without popping them open.
Or kill it…lol
Or collect some pollen for later controlled use
Or put it in a small closet with a light
Or…what you think is best
Dry it smoke it hash it cut off the branch that has them if only one and continue and inspect daily…

Okay…thanks bro. You talked me off the ledge. I think im gonna let em get old. The autos are still just seedlings and should turn to flower about the time the two wierdos are gonna get hacked.

Coming in late here, I see flowers on those 2. You shouldn’t have a problem identifying a male. But girls will go herme from time to time. But that can be not such a bad thing, I got a few seeds that way. They are a domestic that do well growing in the environment it came from.

Good way to sex…IS growing FEM’D seeds.

Plant a few more than you plan to harvest. Cull the weak and slow growing.
