Can anyone help me identify the sex of this plant. Its 8 weeks old so it has to be showing signs of preflower. I'm a first timer so I don't really know what I'm looking for.
Male or female

What are preflowers?

It's hard to see in the pics that why I say...but it does look maleish to me.

Give it another week it'll be easier to tell
Hey first time, welcome to the forum
I'm fairly new to the site myself, but have been growing for awhile now......as for your question, I'm sure there's a thousand posts about it, all with answers 
but hey let's do it again 
those lil hairs you took pics of are called pistils, this shows it's a female, if it had a small sac (pollen sac) on a very short stem, then it's a male...although in your pics, it looks like you may have both 
so watch that lil nub and make sure it doesn't grow into a sac, and good luck

Check out page 2 of my first journal. The pics I have posted about half way down are all males.

All good info above...this is why I think it's a male. Looks very similar to yours in certain pics, which is the male(staminate)

I don't see a single pistil but I do see one nub

I noticed all my males had little stems under the sac's attaching them to the plant.

Thank you all for your replies. I'm gonna leave it another few days. I'm just slightly worried because I have a two week old female white widow autoflower beside it. I hope if it's male I get it out in time

It's about 8-9 weeks old
You'll have time. It will show it's sex long before it pollinates.

This plant ended up being male so had to go. Such a shame. Thanks everyone for your advice
