The process of identifying the sex of a cannabis plant, determining whether it is male, female, or hermaphroditic. This is crucial for growers, as female plants produce the flowers used for consumption, while male plants produce pollen and are often removed unless being used for breeding. Sexing is typically done during the pre-flowering stage, when the plants start to develop reproductive organs.
