I've not cut clones yet but will soon. To sex em I just looked real closely with a macro lens into their 5th-ish node crotches and find either staminate or pistilate primordia, aka early sex organs aka preflowers. Here's what I saw on 4 of my Space Monkeys, I reckon these show gender pretty clearly:

Gotcha. What are you using to take those photos?! Super good. Thanks. About when do you look to see? I'm trying to sex them as early as I can.

I use a canon digital SLR with macro tubes for pix but any magnifier works to determine sex. I don’t know when they show sex honestly, prolly when they’re showing their 7th or so set of true leaves although I’m sure it’s strain-dependent too. I hadn’t looked til yesterday and was surprised to see all of them were sporting gender specific bits on first look, although just barely...:joint:

Thanks! I will try crayolla washable markers since they are cheaper. If those don't work its to the Posca next. Theres so much data I can now write on each 3G pot, I have no problems taking a wet soapy cloth to the container for a few minutes at harvest ;)
I usually add info like date it was potted up maybe, expected harvest date (gives me a roigh idea of expected dates for different stronss) if it's been pollinated etc.
And no more sticky pots! Haaha.

You can you those silver or gold sharpies. The ink stays put until you remove it. A quick wipe with some alcohol wipes sharpie ink off clean. I've been meaning to pick up a couple because I'm tired to using tape too.

OHkay cool thank you. My first grow was two Bay 11 seeds, both fems, and one hermed real quick after, started showing both parts. I guess after that I got scared to sex that way and started going by clone and vegging for a while. i think I'm going to reinvest in a new magnifier, maybe a digi one that can take photos.

I"m about to be doing this for the first time with my 3 strains, looking to keep one male total. So you just cut your clones, root them real quick, and then flip them to flower? And while those are showing sex, you just keep vegging everything else, and then when you find out whats what, go back and cull?
That’s how I do it. I’ve got it down that when I flip I drop the next run of seeds.

cool cool. Do you mean when you flip the clones, or the plants themselves? Or do you flip them both at the same time?
I flip the clones in order to sex the vegging ( to be determined moms and dads). A lot of people say that they show after a certain number of days but from my experience or bad luck it doesn’t happen. At least not fast enough. If they’re female then I reveg the clone and flower out the mother.

Yeah I couldn't find any info on it but pretty glad I grew a few. Here's some of that plant dried and curing. Good heady/body high,dense and frosty. View attachment 4120974
Here you go...
Straight from the man himself

Sounds exactly like I thought it would per his description of the mother.

jamaican bush hashplant (heirloom) collected early 2000’s…

perfect example of a modern hybrid caribean heirloom. looks like an old dutch hashplant and an island sativa shacked up together. I’ve found more indica expressions in the line, but the sativa ancestry pops out sometimes too. beautiful, large, hearty, majestic plant with tropical fruit and spiced rum aromas, nice potent hybrid effect, 9-10 week…

Never posted pics of the purple wookie I chopped around day 58ish View attachment 4120976 View attachment 4120984
Got a pretty small yield off of her but the smell and potency is good. Never lost it during drying, smells like skunky funky floral blackberry jam. Good narcotic indica stone, I sit around a lot when I smoke it lolView attachment 4120989
I had flowers w that same trait in another Wookie cross, the Sakura (katsu bubba x Wookie15) may be a trait in the male.

Thanks homie. Thats what my process is going to be then. I tried going by sex organs once, and I ended up having a plant herm on me and it kind of fucked up my trust in my judgement on sexing them. In the middle of building my aero cloner thingy right now.
