About how old should the plants be before i can determine the sex, and What should i look for in a male and female? Any help is aprreciated!!!
males dont bush out as much as females and they get a little taller too because when they drop the pollen they want to drop it on the fameles.
A bit more to it than that, Killer. You need to positively identify the two types of pre-flower. There must be some pics of what to look for somwhere in this forum. Once you have done it you don´t forget it.
Thanks alot fly and with ur help im glad to say that both of my larger flowers are females the other 6 are to young to tell still but ill keep posted.
you can kinda guess if its male or female before it gets its preflowers and maybe you'll get a lucky guess or something. I have always noticed that the males are a little taller than the females, as far as node spacing.
No you cannot ´kinda guess´ . Not if you are a serious grower, you will buy a lens and look at the preflowers. I keep all my seedlings in 5 litre pots until I have definitely determined their sex. Only then do I invest in lots of compost when I repot my known females into much larger pots. I see no advantage whatever in attempting to ´kinda guess´ their sex.
Hello my spanish friend. Yes, you must be able to identify pre-flowers! You must also be aware of hermorphodytes!
could we get a pic of where exactly you could find this? Would the bottom node (i guess that's what it's called) be the first place you can see the sex.. parts coming in?
I wished I could of gotten an answer like this when I asked almost the same questions. I feel very discriminated against by this forum. I don't know why my questions couldn't of been answered like this.
