my lowryder is at day 12 has a very small set of 3 leaves and is starting to grow a second set of leaves but she showed sex at her cotyledons today....this being my first grow i have no clue if this is normal or not? has this happened with anyone else?
 
There should be absolutely no growth points below the cotyledons. Technically this should be impossible.
 
I wasn't saying they can't show sex by day 12... I was saying that they don't show sex at the cotyledons.

Cotyledons are the two first tiny lobed projections that emerge from the soil. There are no growth points below these, only one above them. After the cotyledons the primary growth point (shoot apical meristem) creates the primary leaves and then the first true set of leaves follow. At the first true set of leaves two additional growth points are created at the sides of this node. This is generally where the first calyxes develop and there the first pistils can be observed.

If there are pistils below the cotyledons I would be very astonished - not saying that its impossible but it's highly highly unlikely.

Congrats on the females! :)
 
lol i know what ya saying brother! but these new kids dont have a clue when it comes to sexing etc.. other day some kid asked if it was female and took pictures of the leaves!
 
no no no i know how to sex i just didnt think the first calyxes would appear from the top side of the cotyledons (not below them)...i figured it would be at the nodes of my first true set of leaves but nope i got an early surprise

Click to expand...

i have kinda always known how to grow... not weed but flowers and veggies and now weed.... i was taught from the age of 5 by my family members and at school, i still need help and advise and i don't regard myself as being very experienced at any of it yet........ but i'm learning more and more and feel confident in what i'm doing..... ask me for any advise and if i know i'll help, if i dont i'll say i don't know for sure....

I WON'T call you a kid! ... or rip on you if you don't understand something,...... we all start somewhere and its only by trying and learning and asking questions that any of us will learn....

my thought for the day ... if your just here to show off, and not going to help people..... your not needed
