Plant showing sex @ day 32

This is my first grow.

My plant from seed has just showed itself to be male at day 32 in the soil. I planted 6 seeds and this is the only one to show. Has anyone heard of this happening?

They did have troubles at the beginning due to being under-watered. They started in 16oz cups and i was watering every 3-4 days. I transplanted them into 2gal pots and watered every 3 days and they all stood back up and grew great.

I used pro blend veg 1/2 strength 2 times on all six so far.

They have been under 2 40w flouro's from the time they germinated. They have been in the new 2gal pots for about 16 days, I also just killed 2 of the plants that had their growth stunted from the under-watering. Please help.

How long can I keep him around until he causes problems?

This is my first time so I wanted to try LST just for experience.

3-4 days max when you first see the male parts. I am going through this situation right now. Those sack will start opening like I said in 3-4 days. I tried keeping the males I had stressed, low light, unwatered, but none of them hermied, so it's best to decide what you are going to do, make seeds or sensamilia, and then go for it.

If you've just discovered male preflowers on a 32 day vegging plant,you have a tad longer than 3-4 days before pollenation lol.Unless I'm misunderstanding you.You have to go 12/12 for a couple weeks normally before they start to open.Now if you're talking 32 days into 12/12 then I'm really cornfused

I am saying that 32 days after the seed germinated it showed many male pre-flowers. There was a big (looked like a small bud) at the top of the plant, and at 4 places were the stem of the leaf meets the plant, there were 4-8 small balls. It looked really male so I did pull it already.

2 of my other plants have shown white pistils at the first set of leaves at the top. Why are my plants showing sex so early?? They are from the same bagseed and the bud from the bag was not good (100$ for an ounce).
 
Holy smokes! Yer gettin plants showing sex THAT SOON???!! Wow...did you throw them into flower already? I mean, can they even show sex before doing that?

I read somewhere that even mediocre weed can be made better the next grow, with better care, conditions, light, etc. I don't know if this is true, but at least you're getting good experience puttin them in soil and getting them up out of it.
