hi, im new to this forum. im growing indoor plants. they seem really tall and not that leafy, is that normal? also, 5 of my plants are female but one of them is male. i seperated them for about a week and now the male one is showing signs that its a female, what sex is it? i dnt have any pics but all i can say is it looked like a male, its got little buds on it, quite a few but now its getting those little white hairs. whereas the others have more of those white hairs and very few buds. what is the sex of this male/female plant? please help as i dnt know weather to get rid of it or not. thanks:joint:

if it's showing both male and female signs, then it's a hermie. Meaning it'll still seed and pollinate any other females you get it anywhere near. hermie's make bud but they almost always have seed unless you are just super diligent about removing the male sacs before they can develop. I've heard of people on here doing it successfully but if you have other plants you are sure are female I would just dump the hermie. As for height that can be a result of your lights being too far away, or if the plants are from a sativa dominate strain, sativas tend to grow lankier and taller than the indica which you'll see in use more on these forums. Sativa's generally have skinnier leaves and a sparser taller growth about them, while indica strains tend to be more bushy and shorter in nature.
Without pictures it's difficult to say what you have going there...
