I guess it could be kind of early for this considering its only been about 4 weeks but there is new growth comin out of the stem and i cant tell if this is the part telling me that it is a male or a female. I circled what i think is new growth, or the male reproductive parts in red....and what i think is the female reproductive part.

Any of you professionals have any ideas as if this is a male or female?

the only way you can determine sex for sure is by cloning for sex , its a complete pain in the ass but you really can't get away from it , pluz if theres any hermies, which is far more likely in fem seeds then u can identify it quickly b4 it ruins you sinsemilla crop.and remeber that the sex of the plant isnt determined from birth you can shape its surrounding to produce male or females
to increase likelyhood of females, you want higher humidity (50-60%) , lower temps (70-80f) and more nitrogen and less potassium in the soil, more stress will produce more males too
hope that helps and post me bak for anymore advice
cheers

Thanks to everyone who posted...i figured it was still a little young to tell the sex..how long does it usually take for those parts to be visible or will it not be determined til 12/12 flowering...but thanks everyone again for their input

you can wait till the plant is muture enough and showes preflowers...
or you can put it into 12/12 to speed up the process.....

i dunno, from what i heard people saying you can doo 12/12 from seed...

the plant itseld will not produce anything until its sexually muture..
i think, can put it in whenever you want.. the longer you wait the bigger it will get and most likly
a better tasting smoke too!
