Spray the top soil a little before watering, this helps spreading the moisture

What do you guys think?
It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).

Thoughts about harvesting
Hello guys ! This question is about my Purple Queen Auto. She's a little bit over 8 weeks old now (5 weeks into flowering) and I really don't know when to harvest her. I know about the trichrome method but I only have my eyes to zoom haha So, when do you think she will be ready?

Plant’s Gender
I’m growing 4 random seeds that are somewhere between 5-15 years old. I don’t know if they’re photos or autos; I don’t know if they’re feminized or not; and I don’t know their strands. My questions: How can I tell my plants gender? What exactly am I looking for and when?
