When I was first learning to sex plants my policy was not to trash anything until I was sure. Often times that jus meant waiting a few days for the suspicious areas to develop a little further. Once you see a male flower it is pretty distinctive and pretty easy to recognize from that point on.

Yea i gotta agree i dont trash anything unless absolutly sure and i know this may sound crazy but in reality there isnt as big of a rush to get a male plant out of the grow as we all have always known main thing is not to let it polinate and yea i probably spelled that wrong haha anyhow plenty of room to always be sure im just sayin and color on those plants are nice looks good

In pic #4, those sure look like some little balls sticking out. It's tough to say with 100% certainty, so I'll say it with 95% certainty.....I'm 95% sure it's a male.LOL

thats what i was thinkin jaw...kinda wanted a 2nd opinion since this is my first grow, ill check em tommorrow, will be 2 days since first signs so i should be able to tell a little bit better cause im pretty sure its not new growth..and is there any use for the leafs and stems off a male plant at all?

ok, well down to two...hoping the other 2 are females since they havent shown any sex now that i can tell *and they say females take longer to show* *fingers crossed* all part of the growing experience huh?

yep, all part of the experience, unless you buy fem seeds or do clones. if you get a good gal you should take some clones from her, people will try to tell you not to clone in flowering but thats bs imo. i prefer taking my clones from flowering plants, if you want ive got a pretty good guide to it ive found that really helped me realize that you should only clone during veg is a myth. a popular myth...but still a myth. lol

well there is still one im unsure of....and one i think is female *just from it not showing sex yet, hoping its cause being female* and god damn the smell that covered my whole house cutting them up *the males* is rediculous
