Plants showing sex very early

  1. So im doing a second grow with some more bag seed from a friend, and I havent done this stuff for a while but if I remember correctly arent plants suppose to show their sex a couple weeks into flowering? These babys are just 5 weeks old and I already noticed one was just sprouting pistils everywhere, is this auto flowering or something?
     
  2. Probably just pre flowers.
     
  3. pretty much. and usually 3 weeks-ish into veg.
     
  4. never seen em show sex in veg
     
  5. Yeah same here, last grow I didnt know sex of my plants until about 2-3 weeks into 12/12. So this was surprising to me, forgot about pre-flowers though.
     
  6. Mine showed sex at about 2.5-3 months while in veg and I vegged them for about another month or so before switching to 12/12 for flowering. A plant should show sex when mature enough.
     
  7. You should just take a clone off of the plant as soon as it is strong enough, grow that a bit and then put it under 12/12 lights so you can determine weather it is male or female a lot quicker without wasting your time going through the whole veg state and 1-2 weeks into flowering.
