Your pics are kinda blurry but I say they're both females. Just from my experience(I am growing white widow rite now to, just harvested 2 plants and put 5 clones in to flower mode). Good luck and kjeep growing.

lol, there's no way to know if they're female or male without actually seeing the pre flowers. Sorry bro. I know that most people at this stage are anxious and would like to know, but reality is, a female can be stretchy, and a male can be stretchy. Doesn't matter which sex. On average, males show preflower SLIGHTLY earlier than females, but besides that it's mostly the same. If you'd like to see which one is female and male, get a little piece of black plastic bag, and cover a node to induce 12/12 cycle. After a week or so, you will start to see preflowers. Either little balls/bananas, or little tiny pistils. YOu're going to want a microscope to see it.

You have a chance to have 2 females, 1 female, 0 female. Looking at percentages, then i'd assume 1 female. There is a experimental technique that many people use that they claim helps increase percentages of female. They'll put an apple, or a banana into the same room that the plant is in, the ripening fruit will release hormones into the air that "pushes" the plant into female mode. Obviously this isn't tested by any means, but i know of many people who claim that this works.

And, i'd like a rep, but i just don't understand what reps are for? I just wanna feel special :)

and to those that will refute the banana technique by saying, sex is determined by the time it's a seed, that cannot be true, as then what the hell are hermaphrodites?

[Hey guess what, i have your answer. You have 2 different "phenotypes" This is very common (unfortunitly) What happens is most strains are crosses of many breeds. So what can happen is the genetics of one of the many strains used to breed white widow has come through stonger. After all i think WW is 80% indica 20% sativa? idk the point is the sativa genetics have come through in the stretchy plant so its more sativa. This plant will be slower flowering and have long colas, instead of the indica which has small compact flowers.
This is a sign of poor genetics when you have many different phenotypes growing of the same strain, it sucks especially for hid growers who need a uniform canopy.
