Yeah, that's a female. Make sure you have room for that thing when you flower it. It's gonna get huge.

Just bend/tuck leaves if they're covering buds. I've been reading arguments of cutting vs. tucking since I started growing and personally I feel better not cutting the plant. The fan leaves are what take in the majority of light for the plant, so it makes sense to me to leave them.
Orzy Reviewed by Orzy on . Direct light to buds and what is the sex? This is a two part question as pretty much stated in my subject line. I'll post each question with it's corresponding pictures. My first question is this. As I understand buds like direct sunlight and tucking the leaves/branches out of the way is the preferred method, but I have a beast of a plant that vegged under CFL's. What would be your suggestion in this situation? Please see the pictures below. I've got 4 pictures showing all 4 sides of the plant. Rating: 5
