For sexing any size will work. Once you have roots just put them into 12/12.

Since you are looking for signs of sex and not get produce just get some roots and trhow it in there. The stress of flowering may kill the little guy, but you will see it sex before it dies.

I've flowered fully a papaya plant by Nirvana in a 1oz glass, not using quarter of it for roots.
you could flower in anything, surely just pre-flower.
actually root binding increase the rate of pre-flowering.
plants stresses and want to reproduce ASAP and thus create flowers faster.
they give crappy yields and all that, but they show sex pretty fast compared to bigger pots.

good luck.

so any size should do it as long as i dont take the piss then ? ie a shot glass lol
im thinking 3/4 litre or a ltr pot n ill be sound ? like i said its a case of saving space which is valuable as hell at mo ! just want to show sex as soon as poss so i can rid my grow area of the dreaded males n get to lookin after my girls, bigger pots bigger lights etc etc:weed:

Use the beer cups (not clear) Put in some cuttings making sure to label everything so you know what came from what. A simple a,b,c will work fine.
No need to root them or anything. Just put them into 12/12 and watch for the signs. Pull all males plus the males they came from and your set. It will take about 2 wks to show. You can flower out the cuttings if you want to.
