Is this a female preflower?

gdogfunkstarted grow question 6y ago

I just uploaded 4 pics of the only preflower I can find amongst 4 plants. Everything I’ve read about male preflowers says they are spade shaped. This preflower doesn’t look spade shaped to me, but I thought I’d ask the community. Please tell me if this is a female preflower.

Looks female to me buddy. If it was male it would look more like banana and balls. 🌱👍

12-12 vs, Autos So, I am currently and always been growing autos, but I was wondering if I can get basically the same results with photoperiods under 12-12 from seed. If that´s possible, that would be wonderful since it would change the electricity cost to 2/3 and more strains available. Thanks!

Doing something wrong?As this is my first grow, I’m just curious if I’m doing something wrong. These are both the same strain but aren’t growing the same. Why do they look so different? The plant in the second pic didn’t have any LST, the other did. Am I screwing something up?
