hey everyone. i have a 5 inch and about a foot tall plant, both branches on both plants are growing quite faster (two) instead of the main stem in the middle which is much shorter, is this an early sign of male or something ? any idea's would be great.

no its not an early sign of a male, there no definite way to tell a male when there vegging, there are signs but there not definite and thats not one of em, any way i wouldnt stress to much over it let the plant run its course and everything should level out , so r the lower branches taller than the main stalk ? if so thats unusual but nothing to worry about

males tend to have more stretch than females, the leafs stay closer to the plant on a male too. I picked out the males in my first grow before they showed their sex

i agree to an extent on the stretching part, not always the case though, and i have yet to determine a male from a female due to how close a leaf is to the plant...i wouldnt throw anything away untill i see balls...some female pre flowers look like nuts at the start...too risky IMO

I don't mean I threw them out, I mean I told my room mate which ones were going to be male and I was 100% right

yea alot of the time this is true and the males tend to grow faster and taller but ive had times where all throughout the grow i said this plants gonna be male based on those characteristics and they turned female, was a shocker to me but i wasnt complainin
