• my plant is about 2 months old its bigger and healthier than plants its age. but unlike the rest it hasnt shown any signs of sex yet. It was a seed and i started using egg shells mixed in with ocean forest fox farm soil after it was about 2-3 inches tall and its been an outdoor plant since day 1. in Northern California..
  
  I was wondering if theres any for sure way to make it pop into a female? I recently started cutting it back to 8 hrs of daylight rather than having it outside all day and night hoping that works.
  
  any and all suggestions wanted.
  
  Its a mystery plant and it has nine leaves on each branch. so probably gunna kill me if have to chop it down View attachment 2722294​

This image might help.....although it may be male since it's bigger than the rest....is it also the same strain as the others?View attachment 2722302

Looks male to me but that's just a guess. You did the right thing....take a cutting and give it a week or so and it should show sex by then since the plant is already older.

A lot of plants will not show their sex until they begin to go into flower. That is a nice size plant right now, it could be another month or more before the plant begins to go into flower, I never kill a plant until I am 100 percent sure its male

After the pic, I'd say it's 90+% chance of being a male. Over time you gain experience and after viewing a few 1000 plants over the years, one get goods at previewing the growth patterns and are better able to pre-judge the sex. I'm rarely wrong (with my own strains I grow)- but plants do fool all of us sometimes.

I completely agree with you. Dealing with my own strain, I have learned that males have certain characteristics, even smell is different
