R My seedlings showing sex signs under 24 hr light?

[ronart]

hey, my first indoor grow,, I have some females from clones and also I successfully started 30 seeds of what I was told was "bc hydro".

My question is about my the plants started from seed which seem to be displaying early signs of their sex. If this is the case it will save me time, space and energy if I could eliminate them now. however Im uncertain if these signs are necessarily sex indicators because the seedlings are under 24 hour light. some (male appearing ones) almost appear to be in flowering stage. can anybody give adivce on these indicators?
The following pics show what I mean.

I need to transplant these seedlings now as they have far out grown their pot size and determining sex could save me valuable space resources.

any help would be much appreciated

pics 1 and 3 look like males. if you want to know the sex soon just switch to 12/12 til they show then switch them to 18/6 back into veg i have never done it yet but am in the process ive been told that you can send a plant into flowering and then pull them back out for veg anyway check around riu there is alot of helpful info. thanks riu guys

Pics #1 and 3 are definitely male. Any with those football-shaped pods are males. Hard to tell from the rest of the pics though.

While in some cases you did not choose the very best locations on your plants to photograph to be able to be told what you want to know in at least some pictures it is more than just obvious that some of your plants are definitely playing I’ll show you mine if you show me yours with you.

thanks for the quick response guys, great reassurance.. yeah im definetly clearing out the males.
Its just wierd that they are showing sex signs under 24 hr light..? is this common place with some strains.. I dont think its a lowrider strain but they were from a friends' friend so not sure..

they gotta be autos,, indicas can start flowering with 14/16 hrs light

If they are showing sex under 24 hour of light chances are good that those seeds may be from an auto flowering strain. The guy who sold the seeds to ya probably did not give you any details about the plants they came from. If my asumption is correct about an auto flowering strain then switch your lighting schedule to 18/6. Another thing is males show sex before females.

just my 2 cents....good luck

There pre flowers m8 most grows from seed show the sex when they get a foot or so high

hey there, well thats funny cause i have the same thing my plants are like a month old and on 18/6 lighting. They all (4) have started to show signs of sex (female) the thing is i was given the beans from a mate ,who had saved them from like 5 years ago, from some really nice smoke he liked. I dont think Auto strains were avaliable 5 years ago (i might be wrong) but i cant undrstand how or why the have started to flower under 18 hrs of light. check out my thread hav pics - autoflowering strain. Anyone got any ideas why they do this ?
