first of all most plants don't show preflowers in vegg unless you keep them in vegg for 5+ weeks, this is in most cases and i know that some show sooner, but Flowering (12/12) is when your going to start to notice, a female flower is going to give you 2 fine white hairs, eventuall more and more of these white hairs will show up but the preflowers are going to be 2 of them, about the width of a human hair.Look for them at the top khola part or where fan leaves intersect with the main stem. If its a male you will have a ball sac appear instead of the female hairs, These ball sacs can sometimes looks like a new branch but if u notice something ball shaped coming out from one of the bud site keep an eye on it. if its not a ball the next day then dont worry about it
 
Dude....... take a look around this sight, or do a search - there are hundreds of posts on this subject.
i did a search, but nothing showed right away, figured it'd be faster just to post one so i can track it or w/e.. thanks tho...

hit me with a link, or some pics, i'd like to try to hone my skills before the time comes :)
 
thanks for the pics guys, helping already. i'm gonna keep looking so my eye will get better, testing myself

gonna go look at mine now to see if they are showing yet

I would advice watching i grow cronic has it takes some explaining.You can do one of two things the first would be get the plant up till it is at the right age to clone on 18/6.Once the plants got a few root showing through a cube put it on 12/12 off but make sure that you remember whitch clone belongs to whitch plant.The other one is to make sure that the temps are constant has if any drop or increase can cause the plant to go hermi.But has long has maintain the heat the plant should be fine.Just put it on 12/12 off but still use the veg feed once it shows white hairs at the top of the cola then you know that you have a genuine female.Regular seeds are the way to go if you are wanting a 100% female has femanised seeds have the tendecy to have a few male traits.But either way will work all though i would go for the cloneing.
