according to an article by Mel Frank in HT, "its practically impossible to identify a canabis plants gender during its first 7 weeks of growth. Male plants may appear to be a little taller or more vigorous, since they require less light and nutrients than females"
The first half is absolutely false. My Kiki showed her stuff at 3 weeks from sprout. Surprised the shyt out of me one day, don't worry about "trying" to sex your plants- one day you'll be in your grow room inspecting your plants growth and you'll see pistils and freak! LOL...how it seems to happen usually for new growers.

The second part however is absolutely true- don't get too excited about "best" plants- they're usually male...:blsmoke:

I also want to point out, that the "claw" pix of the plants look like over watering- I agree, but we don't even have the water's ph here- it could be a variety of other things as well. I agree with FDD, when I forget the last time I watered I wait until she starts to wilt. THOSE BABIES ARE WILTING, QUICKLY- WATER THEM ASAP PLEASE.

I'm a noob for sure, but I honestly have had some plants in veggy for 5-6 weeks and they haven't shown. Mine haven't shown until about a week or so into flowering. Now, I do the see the 'pre flowers' but I'm kinda shitty at identifying them positively so I wait.

Thanks for the advice.

Oh I believe it, I've seen plants here not show till half way through flowering- just saying I've seen plenty of plants show their sex before a month old.:blsmoke:

Well I let them go without water for so long, the soild has gapped between the pot. So I guess I will water, Im just sooooo nervous the other plants will share the fate of my largest and soon to be second largest. :-(

I know this is a n00b questions this late in the game, but how much should I be giving each plant, I have always given them .25L of water that has been filtered and left standing for 24 hours every other day before. Is this good? Too much? Too less?

Water enough that there is 10% run off... or in other words, water until 10% of what you put in the pot comes out the bottom...

when i water it never comes out the bottom. check it out
I'm glad that you are experienced enough to do that.. LOL.. for the rest of us tho- I'd suggest the 10% runoff rule- the roots deepest in the soil need to stay moist or they will die- without seeing water run off, it's hard to gauge how much of the soil is moist or if there are dry spots.. but it is true, if you work with the same strain for a while you will learn exactly when and how much to feed them, possibly to the point of not needing to see run off water. :blsmoke:
