alternating leaves, but no sex... what gives?!?!?

[stewie420]

her name is jenova... i of course found her pics on
the internet, but i thought it was weird that her
fan leaves are alternating already, shes about a
month old and yet she doesnt have a sex?!?!?

i thought alternating leaves were THE sign of
ultimate maturity...

also her fan leaves are kind of a funny shape...

please advise.

Those fan leaves are fuckin' trippy, LOL.

stewie - give us a close up of the most recent NODE growth...

please..

interesting plant.. did you prune it like that?

[Johny Pot Seed]

Alternating Leaf nodes only indicate a plant is ready to flower, it does not indicate sex. In order to see the sex of a plant the light cycle needs to be set to 12/12, it is at this time that a plant will show it's gender.

[Garden Knowm]

a plant usually shows its sex before you switch to 12/12.. and ususally a plant with alternating nodes is old enough to throw a hair or a flower...

hey man i dont know what the fuck you are talking about those leaves look fine and have it under a 12/12 lighting schedule and wait about a good 2 weeks and you will be able to determine the sex. otherwise its looking good!

[stewie420]

to get the newer node growth for ya knowm... looks healthy
otherwise just strange...

[Garden Knowm]
