What are signs of a female?

is it a good sign if you touch the main steam and your fingers smell like bud? this plant is growing taller than my other plant, the smaller one looks like a bush. the taller one is the younger and they both around a month and half old. do they have a good chance of being female?

The short stocky plant has a better chance of being a female. Males tend ti have half as much foliage and taller. It's true; I recently picked 4 females from 20 bag-seed, just by going by choosing the stockiest most lush plants.

Males tend to be stretchy with less foliage.

Females tend to be stocky with lush growth

What the people in the above posts said is generally true regarding female and male growth. However I have had plants that are the exact opposites of what they described - I have been fooled many times. I would never cut a plant down based on its growth rate and size - thinking it was a male until I see balls. Most plants will show pre-flowers at about 6 weeks of veg.
