Notice how the female produces little white
hairs and the male produces little ball like
shapes. This is the definitive male/female
telltale factor. Do not kill away any plants
before you see these flowers. It is the only
time that you can really say for sure if the
plant is male or female.
FLOWERING
If all things have gone well and you have
taken good care of your plants, you will now
enter the flowering stage of the plant's life
cycle. You have removed and maybe killed off
the males. You now have a number of females to
work with. This is going to be the most
important time you will spend taking care of
your plant.
The male plant produces pollen sacks which,
when ripe, burst and scatter pollen to the
female plants. The female plant produces white
hairs at the internodes and top cola (head) of
the plant during flowering. These hairs
(pistils) begin to curl slightly and grow
longer and thicker. The top cola should carry
the most pistils. These pistils are sticky too
