Have you started flowering yet if so watch the pistils as these are bud sites

light cycles will induce budding. 12/12 for indoor, mother nature will take care of outdoor. after 7-14 days of 12/12 on/off you should see signs of sex.

i kno that shes female because she is covered in white hairs in all the spots where the stems meet the branches and the top, shes pretty much under mother natures care besides watering. so thats flowering, when the white hairs comes in? and where the white hairs are where she will be budding? shes also starting to get orange hairs in with the white 1's.

Sounds like she's budding if the white hairs are turning orange, pistils (the white hairs) are bud sites these will start to swell up in the last 2-3 weeks of flowering. The most apparent bud site are the tops.

have you any pics

yes, thats called flowering. the clusters of flowers and bud leaves make up the buds.

It depends on which strain is it (I can't tell from the pictures, sorry), anyway your plant has just started her flowering process, and has plenty of time ahead before she's ready.
I'd say anywhere between 6-18 weeks.

So u're using sunlight, no lamps, right? Are u under the equatorial line I guess?

My advice is to check out pictures at various stages of growing so you can have an idea of what to expect.
I have posted the full life cycle of my first plant with many many pictures, just check the link in my signature.

you might be right, its hard to tell for sure w/o clearer close up pics. the sacks dont make seeds they make pollen btw. does it kinda look like this up close?

ok well yea lol there aren't any of the pollen balls nd those are probly the only thing i knew 2 look 4 as a sign of sex when i started (if i wuda seen some pop up i probly wulda jus threw it away). nd thanks, your journal did help me sum. also made me realize that i have been miscountin nd shes only turnin 3munths (pulled out the calender lol) but she generally looks lik the pic on day 69 of yours but it looks lik she got more hairs (15 points where the bunches of hairs are) , cept she seems lik she gunna b more short and bushy (which is wat i was hopin 4).

nice plant, but the club soda thing is bs. sorry but it doesnt work. the leaves are where your plant sucks in the c02, you'd need to spray it on the plant but even that doesnt actually work. sorry. i'll see if i can find you a link to a diy throwaway c02 method.
