With more and more states legalizing cannabis, you may wonder if there is a way to tell the difference between a weed plant and other plants. You may wonder what you can do with this. Male plants are definitely something you want to keep out, since they can ruin your yield, and it can impact the general state of the cannabis. Once you’ve cultivated it, you can use it as an edible, a flower, or other products. Ideally, you want to make sure that you only have females in your growing medium, since that of course, will prevent problems.

How to identify male weed plants

Most male weed plants have stalks that are thicker and studier, and they have less leaves. They also do develop much faster, and they tend to get taller too. It’s important that if you do compare these plants, the stalks and leaf counts do vary from other cannabis breeds.

You also will see the pre-flowers as well. The male plants have little bulbs or balls on this, and this is the sacs that cause pollen to be released. You’ll want to make sur that they’re removed the moment you find them, since the do grow faster than female plants. Speaking of, they may be up to 10 days earlier, or sometimes three weeks indoors, before the female plant shows what they have.

You want to identify it in two ways.

The joints near the stem. The pre-flowers will be there, and if you use white hairs or bulbs, that’s male
Taller and thicker stalked plants with less leaves and stems which are taller man that the plant is indeed male.

What about the females

Right now, female cannabis plants oftentimes have stalks that are thinner, and they usually have a lot more leaves in the top area. They also create pre-flowers that are white, and they’ve got little hairs on that which are translucent. That is what creates the pistils we see in regular plants.

To identify, look for three things:

At the stems and joints, you’ll see the pre-flowers, which contain the white hairs, and they do grow with time.
Look for seed pods, since that may be an indication that you’ve got a hermaphroditic plant
Bushier leaves and stems. They tend to have more than a male plant does.

Hermaphrodite plants?

This is something where you get both, and it happens due to stress from the growing stage. That means, the usually will self-pollenate. You don’t want this ether. Typically, it’s caused by the following:

Plant damage
Not enough water
Weather being bad
Not enough nutrients
Light issues when flowering
Diseases

If you notice this, it usually is best if you get it away from female plants. You also will see both pistils and pollen sacs. They should be treated in the same way a male plant is.

Why separation

You may wonder why you have to separate this. The simple answer is that it causes pollination. While you may think you want to have more plants, the problem is that you won’t’ be able to make buds, and instead will spend al the time making seeds. You want seedless cannabis as the ultimate goal, since they have the best cannabinoids, and they definitely are better.

Plus, if you’re going to consume this, definitely make sure that you’ve only got females, since the males don’t have enough buds. While they do contain THC, it’s far less. Be mindful of this, and make sure to avoid the pollination of these plants.
