Hey guys Im on day 50 of my first attempt at 12/12 from seed grow. Im under 600 watt light and doing a DWC. The plant is 28 inches tall and has not shown sex yet. I am growing two plants. The other is only 18 inches but showed sex at around 21 days. The plant loogs good and healthy but is this normal to take so long to show sex? What is going on?

Could you have a light leak? Too much nitrogen for one of the plants? There has to be a reason.

Those are just horns (what I call them) and they can still go either way from here. I have a couple of (what I know to be) Koloko Mist they took 56 days to sex (got one of each) this 56 is after 20 days veg in a 2 liter bottle. My concern in the size after 50 days, at just 28". What strain you got going?? Mine are 7' long, I say long because I tied them down at 3' and made it go horz. Strain has everything to do with length of grow.

the less veg. time you give a plant the more it will stretch in flowering and take longer to show sex good luck be patient

I didnt think of a light leak because they are in my garage......but then I remebered I had to store them at a freinds house for a week and the room they were in had a window....It is possible that they were getting more then 12hrs of light....Hmmm how would that affect sexing though if it were only an hour or two of extra light....

never done 12/12 from seed, but in my experience stretch is strain dependent

Those are called stipules, I've heard they are different shape a bit based on sex but I don't think its so obvious you can tell just by stipules.
