Hello ,
Is it possible to tell sex of plants from seed during veg cycle? I have a couple feminized plants and a couple from reg seed.
From what I have read , it is good to sex even the feminized seed plants.
I took one clone from each and they are on the 7th day of 12/12. they have 2 nodes. when will I be able to tell sex ?
Also , is it really possible to tell sex while in veg? The plants are in 6th week and about 2.5ft tall or so.
Thanks

pre-flowers will appear at different times depending on the strain but at 6 weeks id expect them to already be there, take caution though as pre flowers are not a 100% gaurantee to determine sex, only inducing flowering will show sex 100%.

So I should just wait to see what the clones show?
On day 7 of 12/12 for clones , when should I be able to tell the sex ?
Thanks

You can tell sex but what I learned from Dirrtyd(RIU) is that on the 7th to 9th node up during veg use a microscope and you can see lil tiny balls or preflowers.
I've done this several times and worked but I still take clones just to be safe and sure.
