It definitley has male characteristics..(the plant)... can you take a close up picture.. of the nodes/joints
If you want that clone to survive.. move it into
1. a container that light can not penetrate..
2. make sure it has drainage holes
3. use a 50% perlite 50% soil mix

Lemme ask :
1. Would a sheet of paper / newspaper do the trick of not letting light penetrate?
2. It has drainage holes
3. I'm using soil which I bought from a nursery. It's ready packed. I'm not too sure wut they put in there, but why do u suggest 50% perlite? I'm thinking there must be a specific reason.
Ok ... here comes the close-up pictures. I'd like to apologise for the quality of pics. I'm a shitty photographer.

This picture isn't centered properly.
This picture is centered properly. But not too sure about the clarity.
Tallest node.

Lemme know if I have to re-take em.

Look to the nodes if you see any round bulbous sacks, those are pollen sacks meaning it's a male.
If there are white hairs then those are the pistils meaning it's a female.
If you see both then it's a hermaphrodite and your bound to get bud full of seed.
I can't see any sacks or pistils from your pictures. I'm going to assume that your plant is still in the vegetative stage or that it has recently entered the flowering stage and you have a bit to wait till you can sex it.
To sex it expose it to 12/12 photoperiod (i.e. flowering stage) 12hrs on 12hrs off till the appearance of one of these to features appear.
Till then you can't tell if it's a male or female from a picture, unless, like I mentionned one of these features is present.
well you can say it's of a particular sex but you have a 50/50 chance of having it be right.

You won't be getting any seeds unless it's a hermaphrodite or unless you have both a female and male in the same room. What happens is, the male pollen sack releases pollen which the female pistils (white hairs) catch the pollen then goes down the pistil (white hair) into the ovule and the female produces seeds.
It's argued that equatorial and high altitude MJ plants have higher have a higher THC content than plants at a higher or lower lattidude or lower altitude.
This is because more UV-B rays are readily available at higher altitudes and at an equatorial lattiude.
This being said, I don't think that your plant would be getting enough UV-B light to produce the quality bud you're looking for nor the quality yield your looking for. So no it is not advisable. But if it is indeed all you can do then all the luck to ya friend.
If you're going to do the whole FL thing I would suggest this:
The following is a link to a diagram displaying the wavelengths emitted by a few fluorescent light species. Remember that UV-B light is from 320 - 290nm in length. Try to chose a species that will more closely replicate this.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Fluorescent_lighting_spectrum_peaks_labelled.gif
Another suggestion if using fluorescent lights, in order to use up as much of the light intensity as possible keep the light close to the canopy. Fluorescent bulbs aren't as intense as HIDs and therefore can be kept closer to the canopy.
When beginning a reply I usually make sure I know how many times I plan on quoting and open and close as many as I need before I start typing my replies. SO in this case I did it 3 times before even starting to type. It's about structure baby!
