BK/SSH/JTR x Bagseed

So if sex is determined from environmental impact then it is likely that i have either all female or all male correct? Being all seeds were treated the same.

I think they are all males. Males kind of smell of a certain smell and if you look at the leaves from each node they always turn 90 degrees each node.
 
Well, sex is heavily determined by environmental factors during the first 2 weeks of growth, but not completely I guess. Also, I get what you're saying but I think little things like how they grew before you even put them into a substrate can affect the end result too. So basically I don't think anyone could grow every seedling out exactly the same (maybe one's closer to the light, maybe one gets more wind from the fan and dries out quicker, etc.). I'd keep em going and if you don't get at least 25% females from seed I'd start looking into ways to better your setup/their environment.

Last time I got 53.33% females from the 15 beans I popped.
 
do you have any pictures of seedlings that are male and female? can you tell a difference? these seem to look like males. post a picture showing the difference in seedlings stage if you will.

Can't say that I really have any accurately depicting male vs. female, I usually just take group shots until they sex and then I usually just chuck the males.

I find males usually have bigger and thicker stocks, are darker in color, have thicker more papery leaves, grow taller faster, have a kind of pungent smell to them when rubbing the stalk, and if you look closely the little 'spikes' or whatever they are at each node are different (2 on each side of the main stalk, they're there way before preflowers).

Yeah, they usually do look and smell different, and I guess if I had a lot of seeds and space and numbers I could just go off of instinct. But I've suspected a plant to be male and been proven wrong on several occasions in the past, so I wouldn't really recommend winging it.

Just let em keep going for another 2-3 weeks and you'll know for sure anyway.
