Hello I am growing marijuana for the first time, i'm growing outdoors on my balcony and letting the plant sit outside during the day getting as much natural sunlight as possible then when the sun goes down I move the plant inside sometimes or leave it outside. I have been growing this plant for exactly 1 month and 3 days and its coming along but it seems like it's growing too slowly I looked at pics of other ppls 1 month old plants and they are much bigger then mine, I measured my plant and its only 5 1/2 inches tall, I've included pictures give me an assessment and let me know if it looks healthy or if it looks like theres any problem with it and what I can do to make it grow faster? I water it throughly every other day. Also tell me if it is a male or female if possible and im not sure what strain it is I used a random seed idk if its possible to tell yet but if someone can that would be great, thanks, happy smoking!!

Can't tell the sex, but it sounds like you are overwatering. You should only water when the soil is COMPLETELY dry and then water thoroughly. That might be why the plant is growing so slow

I agree with tom... you gotta let it dry out a bit so that the roots can develop properly.

I think it will be ok though. Don't give it nutes though until it's big enough to take it. It's nowhere near that now.
