Way to young to tell. The plant has to mature before it will show sex, unless you force flower with 12/12

the lil nubs at the base of the leaves are branching nodes bro, given time they will make branches. that tiny lil plant is too young to show preflowers, and you wont even see flowers at all until several weeks into flowering. next time let it grow some branches before you flower it.

Even force flowering it takes roughly a month of growing (from seed) for a plant to reach sexual maturity. The "seed group" comment is hogwash, as males don't make seeds, they make pollen sacks. Running at 14/10 it can show preflowering at anytime after a month, although 14 hrs light is borderline veg/ flower stage, depending on sativa indica. On a side note about the pictures. It would make it much easier for people to help with a photo diagnosis if the pictures are clear. Remember, you physically see the plant in question so you can see things in your blurry photo that we can't. Gotta try to get clear shots for a better answer. ( not picking, just trying to help you, help others help you).

Excellent advice

What you see in the nodes, are your secondary branches, next you will get terciary out of those. Put these back in veg they are a month away from bloom you can force them but, you will take no clones, and the gram of dry weed you get from them won't be worth the effort. Let them grow out untill you see pre-flowers and flower arrangements forming at the top and at the end, of all your branches. Then perform a simple cloneing, bloom. Everything that is male, discard the seed plant and corrisponding clone. When you return to veg if you have pre-flowers carefully remove these you should get vegitive growth where the pre flowers where. This is just gen info, your plants are a long way away from that point.

Also for a faster veg if that is what you where trying to acomplish a 24 hr squedual has always been a favorite of mine. I have tried every combination of photoperiod imaginable. I guess what seems to work for myself as well as a great # of other growers is the old tried and true 24veg followed by a 12/12 bloom. Everybody has a theory of why there light squedual is better yada yada , I find with growing MJ If you keep it simple, and remember less is more you should be fine. Great literiture, is also a plus for new growers as well as experienced . Try Greg Greens "The Cannabis Grow Bible". This is a growing TOOL not just a book!

its in a small closet about 3 ft wide 3 ft deep 6ft 10in height
I would let her go to bout18 in and top it. Give a cpl wks then flower. Just remember the more branches you have during veg. the more flower sites you will have.
