Where the pistils form is from a calyx and where calyxes cluster together and start shooting out loads of pistils is gonna be a bud. You will see that at some points on the plant you may have just a single calyx or two poking pistils out or at some nodes between leaves and branches low down you might get a tiny nug trying to develop but it wont get far and when you trim keep them in your stash for making edibles and oils. Your bud production sites will be quite apparent in another week or so and will keep chunking up until about 10-14 days to harvest. For harvest in a few weeks get yourself a good magnifying glass / pocket mircoscope / jewellers loupe (you need minimum of 45x - 60x zoom) so you can inspect trichome colour - general rule is: Glassy trichomes - not ready Milky 85% or so - ready Amber - thc degrading and becomes a sleepy stone. Depends on the high you like as to when you chop. Hope that helps!

Well there’s pistils/stigmas that grow usually just a singular one out of a calyx at the main nodes - those usually do not turn into large buds/flowers.. but once you start seeing several pistils grouped together within a small spot that’s going to become a bud site or flower.

No, a pistil is part of a flower. If you search online for "parts of a marijuana flower" there will be many pictures and diagrams of what the flower looks like and what each part is called. At 5 weeks you are probably just starting the flower phase. Critical Purple auto was a very good producer for me. Don't be surprised if you see more bud sites emerge. Then sit back and watch them get big, fat and sticky.
