Make or female?

Hi guys can anybody tell me if this auto white widow is a male or female or both and what should I do with it

Sure we can, as soon as you post a picture and the plant is old enough we should be able to tell. The sex should be near the canopy. Or close to the top. @Pati

So far it looks like a female. Post another pic in a few days, but I don’t see any seed pods for now.

Hi Pati,
I don’t believe we have spoken before. Welcome.

It’s a female and since it’s an auto it will always b a female unless u do something serious to hermie it. Autos don’t hermie that easily. Good luck

The bottom ones are just swollen calyxes. They will turn into pistils soon. She’s getting ready to flower. Congrats!

hi there I’m still little worried about my little plant I’ve sent more clear pictures of the top that looks like a female and half way on the plant just looks weird.bit worried cause i have 5 other plants in there so i worry that i will turn them all to male’s.so any advice will be much help.cheers pati

@Pati it’s possible that it’s a hermaphrodite displaying some parts of both sex. If, this is the same plant as the top, it’s both male and female. If pistils don’t come out of those like the top ones, you’ll either have to pluck them off, or kill the whole thing. It’s up to you. Maybe one plant missing isn’t a problem. Hope this helps.

Pati. Your plant is female. Those calyxes will swell like that before producing female pistils. Unless u see what looks like a bunch of bananas it’s just premature female parts. Maybe this will help image

Also look here this is what u r seeing image

Yeah I would agree with @anon95385719 and @Covertgrower they look swollen just make sure they don’t group up into sacks of nuts so far so good I have had them the size of peas
