I know that when a plant is fully grown, and if its tall and skimpy that its a male plant. And shorter, fuller is a female. I just planted some new ones last week, and one's already shorter and fatter, and one is tall and skinny. Does its gender show at an early age too? Or just the adults? And if I do have a male plant, what should I do with it? What can I do with it?
thanks,

What you are referring to is a genealization, only true to a point. Strains will act differently you could have an indica and a sativa.
Or even if you have a stable seedstock of a 50/50 indica sativa- you may be seeing the two phenotypes accociated with the original crossing.
You can tell when they get to about 2-3 months old and the male produces stamens. This is the only for sure way, unless you wanna bother with cutting a clone and putting it on 12/12 and it still will not show until it gets mature enough. Which takes 2-3 months at least.

I'm pretty sure they are both sativa strains, and thanks for the info. Long time smoker, first time farmer.
