Late start in the diary. Only soil so far, custom blend of outside dirt, miracle grow potting soil, fox farms Ocean forest, sand, and a bunch of perlite about 25% of the total mix. No additional nutrients have been added yet. Planning to start first feed in about 10 days with Fox farms Grow big at 25% of suggested use.
Topped the plant and let heal for 3 days then up potted to 1 gallon. Showing signs of the claw but have not added any additional liquid nutrients to the soil.
at that size you'd have to take one of the preflowers off and slice it open and use 'enough' magnification to look inside.. either a bunch of nanners inside or 2 white, hairy pistils coiled up inside.
you can also wait a bit longer for it to be more ovvious with the naked eye. There is plenty of time before the sac opens up and disperses pollen
it's male if....
if it projects out on a twig vs nestled into nook of branch.
if it forms a cluster of sacs vs just 1 calyx.
----
it's female if pops out 2 white "hairs."
Noticing some very light green in new growth, still soil only till this point. Tested PH of water for the first time and found I was watering with 7.8ph and getting about 7.2ph runoff, as of the last watering I’m giving her 6.8 water when is bringing runoff to about 6.2-6.3. Will Feed .5tsb/gal mixture of Fox farms Grow Big on next watering.
Hi, yes, that's a pollen sac. You have two options. Either carefully remove all the pollen you find. I would only do that when the plant is close to harvest. Because if you miss one, as soon as it opens, you'll have pollen everywhere, and it lasts forever and can also pollinate future grows.
The second option is to remove them. That's what I would do, so you're sure nothing happens. It's a shame, but it happens sometimes.
