is this male or female?

I just started flowering due to the size of the plants. They did not start growing pistils or pollen sacs. (Or at least I don't think they did)

This is my first grow and if someone could tell me the sex by the pictures, that would be great.

No way to tell. Seems too early...
Be patient. Flip the lights, then wait a week or two.
They will show. Just ripp the males before they bust, you've got plenty of time bro.

agree...I can't say for sure...give it a week

Welcome umhi, I say female. If you do an internet search, male/female cannabis pics. it will help, a great site here, but I did a lot of reading/ research before joining here it never hurts. GD LUCK ON GROW

soon she'll show.
IMO- it looks female. short internodal length like a female.
The males usually grow spindly with a long internodal length.
as mentioned, you'll know soon for sure in a week or two.

Awesome, I do appreciate it. for some reason I thought you could tell sex before flowering. But just like all things plants, I will just wait and see.

You can tell sex before flowering. Cut a clone, and place it under 12/12 lighting for a week or two. Presto, you now know male or female

I learn something new everyday. Thanks
