When can one start to tell the sex of a plant? I've got one goin been a bit more than a month i believe. Planning on starting flowering soemtime next week if it keeps growing like it has been. Is it still too early to tell?
To early but they will show sex when sexually mature (6-8 weeks).
You will know soon enough.

The most common method is to force flower a labeled clone to determine the sex, rather than the incorrect method of forcing the seedling and then reverting it to vegetative growth again.
If you are a seedling grower who does not clone, or a grower who has no seperate vegetative and flowering grow spaces, the easiest method is simply to wait for the preflowers (primordia), and sexual maturity to appear while the seedling is still in vegetative growth. In other words, if you wait until they are 6 to 8 weeks old, most plants will show you their gender without any forcing.
Seedling growers who don't clone are really missing out on the full potency potential of their finished crop whenever they force their seedlings before they've become sexually mature.
