Male or Female?

They've been growing for 2 and a half months. We've topped them a few times.

Having a hard time telling if they are male or female.. I've taken several pictures from several angles. It's odd because some leaves have 7, some have 3.. the waterleaf does have THC in it because I dried some out when topping it and I got a nice buzz.


Anyway, here are the pictures. Any help would be appreciated.

Where are the nodes? I am a beginner in growing.

A node is the place where branches grow off of the main stem. This is where you look to determine gender. You need a NON BLURRY close up of the nodes before anyone here can help you determine sex. It may be too early still.... sometimes you get lucky and see pre-flowers before inducing flowering... however there is no guarantee... sometimes gender does not show at all until a couple weeks into flowering.

Here's a picture from the Growfaqs page that may help.

Where the branch stems connect to the main stem. Find some of those intersections that have growth out of them- pistals, "hair like" extensions, even little "balls" if any. Or, any newer flowers growing out of the branch stems from the middle up. You're going to have to post quite a few pics, preferably one plant at a time for people to be able to look. Or, if you can take some pics of spots you think they might be showing sex, post those.

From the look of them at that distance they aren't showing sex yet, they still look kind of young.

What's a waterleaf? Nice plant btw.

I did the best I could with my digital camera. I found what appeared to be those strings coming from intersections of the stem and leaves..

Here they are:

try using the macro setting on your camera if it has one. it's still a little blurry. Looks like it might still be too early. You want the pistils with more than one strand.
