Where To Look For Sex ?

My first grow is around five weeks old now and don't you know, I am eyeballing them daily for some sign of sex. What I am wondering is, is there a specific place on the plant (top, middle etc.) where they tend to show first? Also - is it off of the main branches or the secondary branches that I should be looking?

Most of mine showed about 3/4 of the way up the plant. Near the main stem right at a node.

Try truckstops ...;)
But seriously - you'll want to look where the branches join the main stem.
But double seriously - truckstops. :peace:

Patience bud. They will show and it will be clear. If males you will have plenty of time to know and remove before the pollen pops.

If you really want to be sure you can put the plants in to there 12 hour photo period sex will show in three to four days. soon as you know chuck the males. as for the females if you feel the need to veg longer you can revert to the veg light cycle you have them on. Only con is you for sure push your harvest date back by at least a week

should look like this if its a little girl -

also remember that their is vegetative growth during flowering -I made the mistake of waiting too long before flower - not that it will effect the outcome, but it will take longer to flower the larger the plant... at least thats what I have come to believe
