How early can I tell the sex of my plants?
Before you can sex your plant you will need to place it in a 12/12 dark/light schedule. This makes the plant think that your plants are now in the fall(shortened life cycle). Sex of the plants is determinable between 1 days and 2 weeks and the time is usually due to the strain.
this is a good link I use it all the time https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/1326-101-already-asked-questions.html

you're in the outdoor growing section - you can't tell sex naturally outdoors until autumn. you can cover part of the plant for 12 hours each evening until that branch shows sex.
indoors you typically cannot tell sex until you've been on a 12/12 lighting cycle for a couple of weeks.

grow it to about 6 inches then throw it in 12/12 lighting to sex it. shouldn't take more than 14 days of 12/12
Outdoors, you can sex them at 4-8 weeks, when the nodes begin alternating. Lots of images on the web for that. Use a magnifying glass. Females will normally have two pistils at the node with males showing pistils and a small ball sac. We usually hit a minimum 90% success rate and if we miss one they come out at flowering time when you can't mistake them.
Unless you're going to use one to pollinate a female for seed purposes (not a bad idea, you could end up with a nice strain) toss them.
If you do decide to produce seed, keep the male and female well-removed from your primary female grow.
