too early, don't sweat it.

people get too hyped up about removing the males as soon as possible, when in actual fact, you can let them develop for a while until you clearly see the beginning of sacks, then you can pull when you are 100% sure.

thanks sublime should i continue it on 12/12 cycle until it shows more defined signs of maturity? and after i determine sex put it back on 24/0 and set it up for cloning if female ? I only have 1 plant from a unknown strain of headies i had 3 seeds 2 died this one survived. This is more or less a first time attempt at growing and i guess it is for educational purposes and future knowledge but it would be real nice to beable to taste the fruits of the labor ;]

Just continue it on 12/12 until you see either pistils or sacs. It will be very obvious when it shows signs of sex. There are a lot of pictures of the male and female flowers online... check those out.

seeing as you only have one plant on the go, the best option would have been cloning it while it was still vegging, (allowing it to continue growing) and then sexing the clone, but it's too late.

you might be able to get it to veg again if you switch it back after you've determined the sex, but it may be too late.

remember, force-flowering and/or a wack light schedule can induce instability in a plant causing it to hermi.

i'll post a picture of my temporary setup tommorow when i wake up and turn the lights on yet to really show any defining signs of sex yet... it's nearly 15 days into 12/12 light cycle. I'll post setup and more upclose pics of nodes and any new growths.
