So I've received my coveted strain of seeds and have them all sprouted and they are non feminized seeds. What is the best way to sex.

1. Sprout, veg, clone, label, flower.
2. Or veg cover branch with bag in a manual fashion.
3. Any ideas other than these I've come up with???

i think the best way is to grow them and weed out the males, but you could go 12/12 from seed and once you see a preflower on a plant either trash it or put it under 24/0 to reveg

Yeah you can 12/12 the beans right away, as soon as you see sex kill the males and go right back to 18/6...that seems like the best way. It wouldn't really be reverting because they wouldnt barely get into flowering, just enough that they show preflowers...

or what about taking a cutting off the plant letting that veg for alittle while then putting that in 12*12.. That might work then you know which are males or girlies..:!:

Get the plants up to around a ft tall then take a clone of each plant i take two just ncase any don't make it.But if there are any males in there then you are gonna need the extra females anyhow.Take the clones the normal way 45 degree cut just under a node then into the rooting gel then into rockwool cubes.I always make the hole's in the cubes because i don't want no gel to be wasted by pushint the clone in and the gel slideing to the top.Then push in the sides gentley around where you made the hole.Give it two week then put them on 12/12 off.If you go onto the greenhouse web site www.greenhouse seeds.com there is loads of info on there on telling males from females without flowering and it does work tried it.

starting at 12/12 then switching to 24/0 works.. but stresses the fuck out of your plants... especially that young.. and can easily lead to hermies... yes, you know the sex early.. but it isnt worth the stress done to the plants...

the easiest way to sex a plant, besides just waiting to see preflowers, is to veg them and put them in 12/12.. within a week or so you should be able to tell the sex of all the plants.. you can easily take clones of the females and cull out the males doing this... and you will be able to tell which is which WAY before the males have a chance to pop their sacs open and pollinate the females...

plus if you do it this way, you can lollipop your females and just use those branches you cut during the lollipopping as your clones... its a win win... you get clones and dont stress your plant out so much..
