i started the flowering and it seems to be geting bigger...i havent seen any flowers yet and its going on the 6th day..how can you visually tell between the male and female????
You'll eventually be able to tell, trust me. Don't rush it, and don't come to conclusions.
Basically, at the nodes (where the branches come off the main stem), if it's a male, you'll see stamens. On cannabis, they look like little football shaped pollen sacks. Inexperienced growers can sometimes mistake an unopened growth sprout for pollen sacks, though. Let these "footballs" grow large enough until you're sure. As long as they're still green, you're generally safe.
Females have white hairs coming out the nodes. The pistils are strands that look like hairs, rather. You'll be able to tell the females pretty quickly as they mature.
