I hope you have some male, well more like a HERMIE A HE SHE IF YOU WILL
If you let them go much longer it will pollenate all your plants that maybe girls. and they’ll become HERMIES AS WELL
Sorry @ elheffe702

I’m not seeing anything indicating a hermaphrodite. Could you point it out for me?

If that truly is perlite … then why did you do that ? and if so shake them off

Oh wait … the question was …are these Male or Female preflowers totally missed that, got caught up in that stuff you put in there.

You can call her Perliteta

that’s my fear …a hermi…I’ve never grown before so Im not sure what to look for.
Here’s some better pics if anyone can confirm 100% please
Thanks

These are the banana looking things they’re talking about. This is a hermied plant

one more question…how big should I let these get before switching 12/12…growing 24/0 now 3x3x6 feet tent. can I go a while longer because I just topped one (back left in 2 liter) and manifolding the middle one just topped both sides so I need another week or 2 I think before they are ready. front right one just topped too… lst one on front left is good I think…and back right one in dwc is an auto. So I think I need another 2 weeks for topped plant to be ready…does this make sense and sound right? If I could redo Id do it different but this is what I have to make work now. any thoughts on course of action?
Should be a new thread I think now that its a new topic

You should put them under 18-6 they will grow a lot better 4 weeks is what I normally tell people who don’t want huge plants but want a few ounces for sure

ok cool, I bought a timer so I’ll get to programming that for 18/6 …so if I veg another week or 2 for the topped plants to recover and be ready then switch to 12/12. I’m thinking on what I’ve read and I feel Im going to run out of space…mabye I hack the dwc auto out of the tent for room but Id have to throw it away

You and me, both! I had to do a double take, and I’m still second guessing myself lol
