What you're seeing are probably leaf spurs, not hairs. All plants have the spurs. It's surely too early for the plant to show true signs of its sex.

I wouldn't be worrying so much about the sex right now as much as I would be worrying about my sickly little plant. I see you've got it in Hydroton so you've got to be supplying ALL of it's nutritional needs via a feeding schedule of some kind. If you've been doing that, I would invest in a good pH pen. 5.5 to 6.3. Do you have an EC or TDS pen? How's your water? You need these things if you're growing in hydroponic medium.



thanks

I dont have an EC or TDS pen. my water is just distilled arrowhead water. i usually feed my plant at around 11 thats half hour after the lights come back on from dark period. is there a better way to feed? and also think ph pens are expensive, but i bet its well worth it right? thanks cali......love the state.
