Think I got a male one. At least 4 others are female. Pcs (anyone confirm is a male?)

[bengt]

Please, just confirm that this is a male. It´s a shame really, it´s the taller and stronger plant I have

[motorheed]

yes its a male, sorry mate.

& usually males will grow taller & stronger than females.

but 1 out of 5 is a good result mate

all the best with your ladies

[bengt]

well, thanks!

Here are my ladies.
Do you think the pot size of #2, #4 and #5 is OK?
I think the are smaller and less developed than #1, that is at least 1 week ahead of the others (pre flower, size, number of branches).
The smaller pots are 5.5 inches of diameter and 4.5 inches high. The #1 plant pot is 6.5inches of diameter and 6 inches high.

I think it may be related to pot size. I will transplant #2 (the weaker one) to a bigger pot (maybe a 8 inches diameter one) to see what happens.

Plus, I will use this male to experiment on cloning
How much time I have before this male becomes a potential problem to my females?

Move the male away from the females immediately, like really far away if outside, Im talking miles. I dont really understand why you would experiment cloning with a male but good luck.

Your females look plenty healthy enough to experiment with

I´m not experienced, it´s my first grow. So I wanna get some experience with cloning with the male: if it turns up all right, I can do the same thing to the females; it it turns out a failure, I can experiment something else with the females.

I wanna clone #1 plant. Do you think she´s ready? They´re 1 month and 3 weeks old.

Yes if they have shown sex, they are generally ready to be cloned, I think you could take one cutting off of each female if you want to experiment without hurting them. You really should just destroy the male in my opinion, its not worth the risk of having it near the ladies and ruining your smoke. Those pollen sacs grow fast and if they open in the middle of the night or something you could get screwed on your harvest.

If you insist on experimenting with the male, take it far away, the cuttings too, and change clothes and shower before visiting the females.

You are growing these outside right?

[bengt]

nope, I´m growing inside. I just get then for a sun bath every now and then. They seem to like it very much, they look healthier and happy after a couple of hours under sun light.

Oh well you definitely dont want that male or its little clones in your grow room with the females imo. Set up an isolated growroom away from the females if you insist on keeping it for experimentation. Or take it outside.

Unless you got a huge grow space those females are ready to be flowered, they will stretch a good bit when you induce flowering to double and sometimes triple the size they are now by the time you harvest.

Oh and your plants look very healthy man. Well done.

[bengt]

thanks! Since I don´t have a big grow room, I´ll donate two of my plants to a friend. This way I do a good think to me (having two well treated plants) and give a friend an opportunity to have his own buds.



Thanks for the help guys!
