So how early could you see the sex of your plant? I have heard that there are plants out there that show their sex after 16 day is that true?

theres an autoflower which automatically flowers. you have to wait till the plant shows maturity which will show sex or you can force flower it. most people growing indoors force flower when they get to the desired height and after changing the light cycle sex shows a week or two later

a plant started from seed that is NOT an autoflowring plant will show "pre-flowers" at maturity. As a plant grows, it has or makes nodes, where you see one leaf exactly and precisely across from an other opposing leaf.
BUT when a pot plant becomes a mature plant , an adult, it will make leaves that are staggered, one on one side and one up higher on the other side. In a rapid hydro grow, it will be between 4 and half weeks and 6 weeks.
THEN a "pre=flower" can be seen.
A female preflower will loook like a minature pear, upside down, and two itty bitty little hairs called pistals sticking up from the top.
A male preflower will look like a crab claw, some say like two eagle talons, some say like a double-pear, but the main thing is there are no two pistals sticking up.

AFTER 12/12 is started, in Hydro, (soil is slower) ten to 14 days later, you will see the start of a flower.
