Thanks for posting the thread OJD, hope everyone will read it!

this sounds similar to happened to a member here, Phillthy.

He was flowering out some plants from seed, Reservoir gear, I forget what strain it was... something with SSSDH tho I think

When flowered it showed an insane amount of pistils and produced a very nice amount of thrichomes for it's age... it stretched way too much and he either revegged and cloned or just cloned it... I forget but when he want to flower out for the second time, it was a FULL BLOWN MALE.

mind fuckery... if you ask me. haha check it out it's in Dank.Frank's sub-forum. I'll see if I can find a link for you... do you care?

Weird. I have noticed the same thing on some standard auto flowers also. I usually give all my plants some xtra time after sexing before ill toss them anyway.

I learned this with my first batch of SSSDH's from CSG.
My 4 feminized SSSDH's all showed PRE-flower ballsacks.
I threw away 2 of them and regreted it. My 2 nicest ones, and I thought they were hermis. They were not.
After picking off the few pre-flower single ballsacks on the remaining two, the plants were perfect.
I threw away 2 perfectly good SSSDH for nothing. Now Ive learned an invaluable lesson.

Even though I made the huge mistake of culling 2 beautiful SSSDH's, it worked out better than I could ever have imagined when OJD gifted me the genetics I have now.
This garden is truly the dankest, healthiest garden Ive ever run, and Im expecting a bumper harvest of the dankest flowers Ive ever had.
TYSVM OJD!

^^I know, how it is, I 'only' chopped one plant, but it felt so bad, when I heared what was going on.
Looking at her with male flowers at every tip off the plant was so impressive, I never thought, it were
male pre flowers. I use females a longer time, but not in big amounts and from such a case I haven't
heared before. On the other side it was the best situation to learn it, I will never forget that, he,he...

Great information and a good heads up to those who panic at the site of male pre flowers... Are you talking about CGS FEMS or FEMS in general?

I recently had a fem do this myself. Thru 2 crab claws when they were a size you needed magnification to see. Thou I wish they had been CG gear I'm not too hopeful about the outcome these beans were from a less than reputable breeder. Live and learn.
