I don't think they would show that early. Typically it takes 7-9wks of vegging to show sex. Have u swithched to 12/12 yet? Mine'll usually show after a week of 12/12. Keep lookin fo white hairs to show. Keep waitin if ur not sure. U'll know if its a girl cuz it'll look like don king ha ha! And the males, well they're obvious as well, looks just like seeds not buds

No the lights are still on 18/6. I figure it will be another couple of weeks before they show. I must have gotten a little excited :mrgreen:

I cant see any sign of sex. I've had a strain show as early as 4 weeks into veg but mostly about two weeks into 12/12.

You can't tell the sex yet, all that growth is just new leaf matter.

When it shows you will know, you won't even have to ask us. its very obvious when you have a female.

You need more light, and a transplant to a bigger pot. at 4 weeks your plant should be 2-3 times that size. that small cup is limiting it.

lol. You can't tell sex at all. Not even the slightest educated guess. You ahve no preflowers. Preflower can form before you go 12/12, don't let anyone fool you.

Look at that image and compare to yours. See how in your picture you have a branch coming out of the corner wher the leaf meets the stem. And in front of that you ahve whats a stipule. Niether are preflowers. In that pic i linked you can see the stipule and the branch and notice the extra flower thing inbetween the branch and the stipule. Thats the preflower, thats where it will form, and thats what a fully developed female one looks like.

There's no way to tell if it's fem. Those aren't pre-flowers, they're developing shoots. And the little finger type "hairs" on the main stalk aren't pre-flowers either.

The sex is still undeterminable. MARAVALU must have been looking at the growth on the internode that all males and females have regardless of sex. The growth that develops ther kinda looks like a female pistle but will never sprout hairs

NoDrama is EXACTLY right!! There is nothing in those pics that is showing sex, and you definately need to transplant into at least a one gallon pot, at least.
