(are you refering to the 4 little green spikes? 2 on each side the stem, 4 at every node?)

I'm pretty sure he's right...It's pre-sexing. It can happen during vegging and it's pretty normal. I'd say its most likely female too.

my badd i always get them up and down and nothing ever came of them
i thought the pre-sexing was just the normal white hairs

OP check it out on google look up maryJ plant stipules
i dont know if everyone talking about the same thing
but the little green hairs/spikes go on both male and female like i said mean jack
but im unsure what everyones looking at so check it out for yaself

Those are normal, and they aren't for sexing, they are part of the plants normal day to day functions, I'm not exactly sure what they do. Sometimes in the right light people will confuse them with pre flowers, until they realize they are green. Maybe stomata are on those, and they help with respiratory functions, or they help keep the plant clean by catching things.

those are called stipules. Both male and female plants have them. I think they are like food storage sacks for that node they are near.

That rings a bell actually, as far as what they called.

Those little pointy spikey things are totally normal. That plant isn't showing sex yet. Give it at least 5-12 more days to fully show sex. =)

Those have been on your plants for as long as they have had leaves...that is just what they look like.
