Absolute Newbie here. Trying to figure out the sex of plants. I've studied posts and images to figure this out but want to be sure before I take action.

Can anyone help me identify for sure or tell me what I should focus on? Also, notice the yellow spots on the leaves in Adam3. Any ideas on what this could be?

Thanks so much for the help and here are some pics..

I changed the uploaded pics for better viewing. There are 2 plants with 5 pics each labeled by name.

Adam was started in Flower 2 days ago but I'm keeping them separate until I know for sure if they are both girls.

Thanks Again for the help!

appears to be female, take pictures just like your last one but from several angles for each plant and we can tell you or just put them bitches into flower and wait

Try adding a cal/mag nute suplement and make sure ph stays between 5.8 to 6.3 if youre doing hydro.

As for identifying sex, males usually show sex pistils first and they look ike balls growing, usually on the fourth node down, females will have single white hairs in the same area, it is pretty easy to determine which is which once you know what to look for. Good luck and happy growing, theyre looking good for youre first grow..

Adam 3 looks a little like cal/mag deficiencies. Are you using RO water?

Thank you for your input. I took new pics for the sexing and was limited to 10 so I removed the pic you referred to.

Adam and Eve had a rough start -- I was trying to use Organic Nutes for health reasons but realize that there is NO WAY I can stick with that in DWC. The leaves yellowed when I moved them to plain water for a few days while awaiting the new nutes. I believe the Cal/Mag may be the issue but was hoping it would resolve with the new nutes. I am using Lucas formula with Jungle Juice nutes since Friday.

I am in DWC with filtered water, PH at 5.8, Water temp 70-75, humidity < 45. Started with Organics and switched to Jungle Juice with Lucas Formula on Friday. Plants were in plain water for 2 days while awaiting new nutes which is when the yellow dots came on one set of leaves. Eve does not have this problem.

Is there any additional information I should provide?

Thanks for the help!

Adam and eve, the spots you were seeing could have been from the nute switch, cal mag deficeint usually looks just like that so hopefully itll start doing better with the new nutes, if worried about the taste of nutes is why youre going organic, its not really an easy way to go unless you really understand how different organics work, iwas looking into it and just seemed way too much more work and worry for same or less results, just make sure to flush real good in the last week with clean water, they also have excellent flushing products like cha-ching i think its called, some will flush out for the last two weeks to make sure nute tatse is gone, i do one week and never have taste issues.

Appreciate the help... I flushed in water for two days when I switched from the Organics to the Jungle Juice -- The Organics was just too much work (PH battles) and the smell was horrific. The new leaves are just fine now and everything seems to be fine PH wise too. The older roots are still brownish I think from the molasses in the organic mix but new roots are a beautiful white. I'll keep the Cha-Ching in mind when the time comes.
