Hi Guys,

I've been growing an outdoor AK47 since april.
It's about 5-6' tall now.

Here is the pic, I see small round balls forming allover the place on the ends of the branches as shown in the picture attached.

What is it doing? Is this is starting of budding stage?

Thanks!

Yeah she is starts flowering! What latitude are you?

 

[Xhashish]

This is the start of MALE flowering stage, the small balls will soon open and spread pollen, which can pollinate your other plants if you have some I mean that plant wont be smokeable ...

 

[Phedrosbenny]

Sorry but yes this is a male.

 

[mehul534]

It can't be male, at the branches they have shoots...

im in midwest

 

[mehul534]

can it be a hermaphrodite ? ...

 

[Phedrosbenny]

Yeah it could be a hermy.I cant see the rest of the plant.

1 second let me take more pics! stay here lol.

 

[Phedrosbenny]

Lols

Sorry man, but those are definitely male flowers. Shoots at the branches do not mean it's a female. Sounds like you may have been misinformed. Bummer.

here u see the shoot ?

 

[mehul534]

damn.... this is a huge disappointment... so there really isn't any way of telling before hand... i had to wait 4 months until it started to bud?

 

[Phedrosbenny]

I cant see anything in your pics that would indicate that its anything other than a male.I hope you have better luck next time.If you have any other plants growing you will want to pull this and get it away from your other plants where it doesnt pollinate them.

Sorry mate thats a male no doubt..

 

[Phedrosbenny]

Your next run you could get fem seed.It just about guarrantees a female.

 

[mehul534]

so what can i do with a male... pretty much nothing? i wasted 1 whole summer ...

 

[mehul534]

yea i got fem -autoflower onyx and mi5 ... that finished up like 3 weeks ago.. i just didn't get a good yield from them... like 15gs if that

 

[Phedrosbenny]

I have heard of people smoking the leaves and even making hash out of the males.I dont think most people do anything with them unless they are into a breeding program.

Do a little research on pre-flowers and how to detect them..

You can usually tell sex from seed after about 3-4 weeks if you know how to spot it...

Not perfect on all strains though...some just don't preflower. But most do.

 

[mehul534]

hash.... i guess i can do that lol any guides out here for that
