hey everyone out there... just wondering some simple questions.. first let me explain my situation.. i purchased 6 plants when they were just beginning to grow.. like 5 to 9 inches out of the soil.. and they were in pop and beer cans that had been cut in half.. kinda rough but over all not too bad.. then i started growing them in my room on my window sill.. but they dont recieve much light(direct sunlight) but i do water them properly.. becuase of this lack of sunlight.. id guess they get about 2-3 hours of direct sunlight a day... but they're on my window all day so they might still get light reflected off the ground or off of other stuff... anyways.. i think this lack of light has caused them to start flowering early.. well.. i dont think it has... it def has... its been about 4 or 5 weeks since i bough them and will transplant them outside soon.. anyways.. basic question.. would that lack of sunlight have caused them to become male or female... becuase as it stands now.. i have 2 males... 1 herm and 2 females.. and i sold one male.. anyways question is.. would the stress placed on them cause them to become male or female, and what can i do so they begin to go more and stop flowering? The are about a foot to a foot and a coulple inches high...

Yea, you need to trigger them into not producing the horomone which triggers flowering; constant light will do that. As far as sex, once they're decided, they're decided buddy, sorry. At best they may become hermies but in either case it's a bit of a headache.
