Hey guys, I was wondering if having a plant that grows very short and bushy during vegetative phase is indicative of a female. I have a plant at 2 weeks now that is growing really short and fat and I'm praying that it ends up being female.
alright thanks guys. Sorry if its a stupid question but I've been using the book Grow Buds For Less by SEEMOREBUDS and he states that short stout growth is a good sign that a plant will be female but obviously not a definite because males tend to grow taller and skinnier. Just wanted to see what you guys thought.
indica if you want to sex them put them in 12 hours dark for a bit, switch them back to finish veg
Couldn't this screw up your plant and stress it out?

Basic botany: MJ will not show sex until mature. The happens ~5-8 weeks from seed regardless of the light cycle and evidenced by alternating nodes and pre flowers.
You just need patience, not changing light cycles.

Suggest you read MARIJUANA BOTANY by Rob C. Clarke, or, any botany book for that matter.
I'm not going to argue or get in a pissing match over known facts. But, if you were correct, a seed grown under 12/12 would flower the first week rather than 5 or 6 weeks later, when it reaches maturity.
