Oh boy, let's get started with my first ever grow. Germination is what I am most afraid of atm🙏 (Maybe I'm even more afraid of mold or vermin but let's try not to worry too much about that) PS: 5th seed isn't a Durban, got it gifted so idk what it is.

It's going well🌳 I don't think that the 5th seed is going to germinate. Not sad about it tho as the last one was a gift anyway. Edit: 5th seed also turned out to germinate :D

Transferred them to bigger pots. Took more soil than I expected so I could not fill them to the top. Kind of unfortunate but I'm still learning so I guess it should work for the first grow.

I am starting to regret not to just buy more soil and waiting a few more days with transferring them...

By now I topped every plant except for the smaller one. I did not want to stress it even more as it is already struggling. Also did some defoliation.

I'm afraid that one of them is a hermaphrodite... Edit: Thanks to you, I am now relieved that it is probably not a hermaphrodite after all.

The pointy things are stipules. Those are not sex organs nor related to sex (you can find some bro-science nonsense out there about where they point relates to male/female, but that is nonsense of retards) The nubs are too young to see a pistils, but probably fine. No worries. You will have a ton of time to react long before any pollen is released. If you see a white hair, all is good. If it starts to project out on a twig and replicate, that's bad. You can always pull off a small preflower, carefuly slice it openn with a razor blade, then use your 30x trichome-scope to look inside. You'll see 2 neatly packed pistils (white hairs) or some nanners clear as day. Smaller but look just like they will when they pop out, either of them.
