Okay this sounds stupid but is it possible to send my plants from veg to flower to determine the males in the 11 plants take them out then switch back to veg so i can fill my canopy because I'm sure more than half will be male and i want to get them out and fill the place for the female plants and set a net up. just don't wanna do all that with the potential that most will be male then taking them out of the net. just sounds really difficult to do that. i know i should of just started with feminized seeds. but its just my second grow and didn't really think that threw. and i want to get clones off the females... but how do i know which are females? so id like to veg to flower to determine sex then go back to veg. thanks!!!

Super simple solution here. Take a clone of whenever you want to sex. Put the clone into 12/12 lighting immediately and it will show sex by the time it roots out. ENJOY!

Or very similar scenario but takes a lil more time,take clones of all plants,flower the first plants once clones have rooted,remove male plants and clones of those males,keep female clones.

I wouldn't consider it a waste of time,cuz if he sexes while the clones root he would have to reveg the female clones anyways,if he flowers out the (mothers/fathers) not only will he know the sex but will also know how good/bad the females are and whether to keep em or not. Either way works,I just don't think my version adds much more time,maybe a week max.

7-21 days depending on skill and luck,that far in they might start showing preflowers soon but I'm not sure id rely solely on that.
