males do have balls, and they come in 2's and 3's, almost always you can tell when you look between where the branches and stem meet, almost always at the top first. The Females don't always sprout hairs right away(you will see one or 2), and you will usually see one one little tear drop shaped growth, with a narrow pointed tip..male almost always grow multiple 'balls'. The time is right whenever you decide you want to sex them, but usually it is best after you begin to see alternating nodes, and even better when your branches have secondary growth between where the leaf meets the branch.
