I have one plant about 5 feet tall. It hasn't started flowering yet. i have a couple questions, if its a female doesn't a male plant have to fertilize it for it to bud. so is having one plant pointless. and about what height will it start budding. thanks
damn 5 feet? it should start flowering by now, how farinto is it? I would look for sacks of seeds at the nodes, thats a male. If not its a female...
ok, females create bud males create pollen sacks, when fertilization occurs the female gets seeds, unless you are creating strains, or boning up on your seed stock you don't want males. a plant will not bud until the light cycle is right, hight is not an issue. budding is triggered when day light and dark is equal. here is a quick sketch of male and female preflowers so you can tell the difference
