Hi all! Im new to growing and have a few newb questions. My plants are about 12-14 weeks old and just starting to flower. I think two of them are males. I have read the 101 questions thread and used the search feature but Im a little slow and descriptions just dont help me much and I havent been able to find any detailed pictures. Below are some pictures of some of the ones Im not sure about.

Heres one I think is male but not sure

Another of a different plant that I believe is male?

These are about 4 weeks behind the others (8-10 weeks) Not sure about them yet.

All my plants are growing outdoors in pretty humid, sunny weather. The way I have them positioned, they get sun in the early morning 6am-11am, then slight shade till about 5 then afternoon sunlight untill the sun goes down around 8ish. Any tips, advice or comments (both positive and negative) would greatly be appreciated as this is my first grow and I would like a successful harvest. Thanks a bunch.

The first two are definitely male. Not sure about the middle one, but the last one looks female to me, but I can't really tell.
 
Yeah the top looks like a HERMI ,the second definitely a gent and the last a maybe a fem.Well it's not all a waste because that last one if it's a male too you can still grow them out and smoke them. KEEP SMOKE ALIVE!!
 
you should name them testiculies and chop chop chop the first 2 and the last could be fem i have found throught the years that males show first at least in my expiriance
 
Thanks for the help! Now that I know what to look for Ill keep my eyes on the others. Is there any way to identify sex before they start to flower? Ive been growing these since April and it just seems a waste to have to kill them after growing for so long but I dont want my possible females to be pollinated.

Also, this being my first real crop, I went as cheap as possible. I am growing outdoors in pots with soil and I made some makeshift tomato cages out of fence wire for protection against heavy rain and such. They seem to be thrivng well and I havent had any troubles with over/under fertilization/ watering. They seem to be a fairly easy plant to grow and care for so I am really considering growing hydroponically. I have an empty metal building that measures 15 feet by 15 feet with one window. I would like to set up to grow 6-8 plants. I have been studying and shopping for months now and have yet been able to make up my mind where to start. Any suggestions for setting up a beginners grow room for the amount of plants I would like to grow? How about favorite nutrients, Ph kits, grow setups, etc..
 
Well, I chopped the two males down. I hated to waste em so I brought them inside and hung them over a light bulb to stink the house up a bit. Lol! Its smelling good in here now! Lol!

im still waiting for my first grow to show....got 3 diff plants but 1 is about 3-4 weeks old and other 2 are about 2 weeks
 
Can you get some better pics of that bottom one? It's likely female, and we could confirm it for ya, with some better pics of those upper nodes. If not, it'll show in a few days, so no worries. :)
