height or node spacing is no sure fire way to tell sex.the first pic has preflowers, in a few days it will either shoot out 2 white pistils or a cluster of male flowers that look like bananas

No way you can tell thats a male from those pics bro. NO way. Bud give it a few more days, or how ever long it takes. Talk to, and treat them as a lady until they prove you otherwise. Youll have plenty of time to react, if it is, in fact, a male


Smoke one with em. And talk it out.

You need to wait more time my friend..cannot tell from these pics. Sometimes they don't tell sex until you've flipped them to 12/12..it has happened to me a few times. Just keep being patient.

Male preflowers don't look like bananas, you're thinking of hermie pollen sacks.

From my experience I would say Female. It is a bit early. If the two whit hairs that pop out are spread well you guess it. FEMALE. If they look like one hair or two hairs crossed MALE. My bet at this stage is female. Let us know.

As in, "were ya born with pubes?" Didn't think so. Plants don't show signs of sex til it's time (6-8 nodes is usually about right). And as mentioned, you probably won't have to ask once they do. :weed:

Good Luck :peace:

First part is true, but "hermie pollen sacks" are just male flowers (or a single flower) that had a chance to open up. They both look like bananas when opened up.

OP Make sure you wait to know for sure. I don't toss out a male until im sure the preflowers are growing out on mini branches. Especially looking so close like you are. Its easy to mistake a female that hasn't put out pisitils for a male if your waiting for the first sign. They don't drop pollen for a while, be patient.

What?! Hairs crossed??? I don't think that's very good advice. Ive never seen male preflowers that looked like hairs. They look almost like a female preflower with no Pistils. When they get a little more developed they dangle from tiny branches. And the lack of pistils you will know for sure. That's the big 2, no hairs and dangling.. You will be able to tell long before they want to drop the pollen. I had a male this year that I liked and let it develop, it was short and smelled awesome wich is not common in males. will be breeding with that. But it was out there for weeks and had clusters all over before I even saw one starting to open.
