You want a way to tell sex? A simple google search will tell you that you can see little preflowers with a microscope at about 4 weeks veg growth or above the 4th node or something I don't remember look it up.

If the plant is outside I would have to ask for a Latitude and the strain of cannabis. After that a couple of macro pics of the upper nodes & I'm your man.

nice

guy asks a legit q. in as many words as you typed preaching to him to google it you could have just told him, hell he could google the whole grow and then he wouldn't have to listen to pompous replies like that.

Here are some pics of the plant in question, Their not the best pics I can't seem to find a micro or macro setting on the camera. This strain is unknown it was just out of some good bag weed, someone asked the longitude or latitude I live in west penna, if that helps. I took pics where I thought an experienced grower would be able to let me know if I should continue growing or just scrap it. Hope its a girl thanks for any input always appreciated

So far I see no evidence of sex, however it is sexually mature as shown by the alternating nodes.
Give it a bit more time & love bro. :cool:

Edit - what you are looking for are two tiny white hairs protruding from the nodes. I'm betting it won't be much longer.

i saw that also in pic 2. Looks like a very small male flower beginning to form. I could be wrong. It's still early. And I feel awful that you have a four ft tall plant that may very well be male. You'll know for sure in a day or two.

The little ball is that a terrible sign correct? thanks for the info I also just put up another post about trying to do LST, since height is somewhat of an issue for me. I actually split the part of the plant where 1 main stock splits into 2 main stocks. It wasn't bad I just wrapped fishing line around it a bunch of times, I think it should be fine. Question is there a tape type product that is sold to help fix plants when things snap?

possibly your camera is taking images in a different format than jpg.....or if you use photoshop they have thier own file extension you can change that by right clicking and save as and you can change it.

After looking at the pictures I'd say it's too early to tell, at least without a microscope.
