My Bubble Gum Breath has started flowering, literally. The seeds were bought, started of looking like hairs then a week or so later I noticed flowers! ![20190808_154825](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/3X/2/1/219663155709fe3c01040627c6a4e2d00dc94161.jpeg) This my second grow first was indoors this one outdoors.

This plant was my prize too. Now I gotta dump it before pollen starts dropping and gets my other baby. I wanted to confirm before shit canning it. 😡 this will piss me off for a while. But, grow and learn 🧐 ---

My first grow (bag seed) with six plants: four were males. Usually the most gorgeous possible marijuana plant will inevitably be male. If seed came from a reputable seed bank, it’s possible something in the grow may have caused a hermaphrodite. Excess stray light, odd schedules, excess heat, nutes can all cause a problem. ---

This was outdoors. Hot summer in New England this year. But other than that nothing unusual and seeds were bought. ---

For sure a male. You’ll be able to see the start of the seeds sacs early on. Either those you’ll see or what we all want to see are 2 little white hairs indicating sweet mary ---

Do males typically flower faster than females? My other \* new \* prize isnt showing the goods yet however, it’s a different strain. ---

Yes the males will grow taller and get pollen ready for the female is what I have read ---

Put that baby in a bag shake out that pollen through some flour and freeze it … now you got bubble gum breath pollen on one of your others take a paint brush dip in made flower paint a lower bud with it care fully wrap it in a bag and mist the rest of the plant to kill other pollen… now next day take bag off mist that bud and it will kill excess pollen and you should get a few seeds on that bottom bud to keep the magic rolling… just turn the fans off when doing this or bring the plant u wanna pollinate out away from other plants … it’ll give you 1 bud full of seeds 🙂 ---

Interesting idea. I used to that with my hot peppers. Wasn’t thinking of that.
